Vicinity is a Progressive Rock/Metal band situated in Trondheim, Norway. In October 2006 Kim-Marius (guitar) met Kristian (bass) and Frode (drums) and they formed a band. They started to rehearse and played a few cover songs from famous bands like Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Dream Theater.
In March 2007 they found a great vocalist in Alex (after having several auditions with various vocalists). They wrote a couple of songs together and in June 2007 they recorded a demo consisting of three tracks with a total running time of twenty-one minutes. The demo was recorded at Skansen Lydstudio in Trondheim June 15-17. During the short time the band has existed they’ve already gotten some live experience and are extremely keen to get back on the stage a.s.a.p.
With a vast variety of inspirational (musical that is) sources they strive to create music they can truly call their own. Their music consists of odd-metered time structures, intricate and speedy riffs and lots of melody.
Vicinity are currently writing new material and plans to record an EP during the summer of 2008.
