Biography ::
It all began in the winter of 1992, when
bassplayer Filip Dupont, the only original member of the band, came up
with the idea of starting a death metal band. This idea was put into action in
early 1993 under the name Last Funeral. After some years of rehearsing
and making ungodly amounts of noise we released our debut demo "Last
Funeral" in 1996. Later that year Bart Goffinghs joined us as
lead vocalist.
Problems arose during the recording of our second demo
in 1998. We had to record "The August symphony" completely by
ourselves on a computer, because the studio recordings were total crap and the
producer was a big rip-off. Most reactions we got were quite good. The only
complaint was the sound quality. Yet it was the best we could do, given our
negative studio experience.
Later that year, we recorded "The dreamvoyage",
a song of 20 minutes. We aimed to release it sometime as some sort of an extra
or as something for those interested. In July 2000 we recorded our third
release, entitled "Burning dreamworlds". Days of hard work resulted in
4 tracks. We also thought of this demo cd as the ideal opportunity to add "The
dreamvoyage" as an extra track. Incidentally, during this recordings,
guitarist-to-be Joris Timmermans spent a day in the studio doing the
clean vocals for a song.
Since the start of the new millennium we've changed our
name to the Quiescent, a better representation of what we stand for: melodic
Swedish-sounding death metal like At the Gates, Dismember, Soilwork,
Eucharist and others...
Later on both our guitarist and drummer left the band.
Neverteless we recorded "Silent painted hate" in the summer of 2002: a
work of perseverance in dark times for the band, and a fitting tribute to the
great times we've had with our past line-up. After these recordings we took a 6
month break to come back at full force with new members! Hans Wijnen
joined us as second guitarist and some months later Marco Vreven took the
empty spot behind the battery!
The Quiescent played live with Dew-Scented, Soilwork,
God Dethroned, Ancient, Aborted, In-Quest, Bifrost, Rebaelliun, Prejudice,
Iconoclasm, Panchrysia, Inhume and many more!
