Bio
MeltingSnow is one of Singapore’s best-kept secrets when it comes to metal in the underground. But that is not to say that the band is taking infant steps when it comes to treading the music playing field. With scores of gigging and touring together with a well-received album. Even as the years bring their own fads and trends, meltgsnow has stuck to its guns, ever pushing the envelope of the gothic genre. To meltgsnow, metal is not just dark, it’s also a mirror that shows the demons that inhibit the human psyche.

About
Forming a dark horizon to the musical landscape, Meltgsnow's (pronounced Melting Snow) was formed in 1999, standing out in the Asian Goth-Metal scene with their dark, progressive and intense approach to metal. Their evolution as a band has created a completely unique sound, characterized by a mix of melody with aggressive dark rhythm and intense vocals. Their debut album “Insanity”, was released on Sonic Wave Records in 2003 to rave reviews, followed with a successful tour in the United States. Known for their live intensity and wild antics on stage, Meltgsnow has garnered a faithful following in Thailand and Singapore with positive fan and press feedback. In late 2008 the band returned to the studio to record their highly-anticipated album, “Black Penance”. Exploring a dark musical landscape, their first single from that album “Empty Sky”, received national radio airplay and good reviews from fans and local media. “Black Penance” is currently scheduled for release at the end of 2009, and will be followed by a tour planned for 2010.
