BIOGROPHY

It all began in 1984 as Hellstorm. Agathon got his first influences as a teenager from the bands like

Venom,Hellhammer & Bathory. Hellstorm ended quite soon, but the title "Fuck The World, Kill The

jehova!" remained. Gloomy Grim used it as the first demo name.The folklore tells, that Hellstorm was

the first  Black Metal  band in Finland. At the time Agathon played guitar, but he got more and more

into drumming, Agathon joined other bands and concentrated     on drums till 1995  when he bought a

computer. Agathon started to feel that drumming was not enough and that computer could give more

possibilities to create music of his own.  He wanted to create dark music, music from the Depth of the

Darkest Pit of Hell and with no compromises from any other band members. Agathon started Gloomy Grim as

a one man band. The biggest inspiration has always been the dark life itself and the soundtracks of the

horror films he collected. Agathon made two demos and after the latter: "Friendship is Friendship, War

is War!" Gloomy Grim signed to Holy Records, France. Between the beginning and the end of the deal,

there has been four albums, three videos and two successful tours in France. Gloomy Grim has also made

some furious live shows in around Scandinavia & Baltic. After the album titled "The Grand Hammering"

(2004) and +30 000 sold titles, Gloomy Grim has parted ways with Holy Records. Gloomy Grim feels that

this is just the beginning. The tale goes on.

New album "Under The Spell Of The Unlight" came out through Anticulture records at 26.5.2008.
