Details:
Combining some of Los Angeles and Orange Countys most destructive metal forces, Winterthrall finally brings the European blackened death sound stateside. Having been in such influential acts as Evil Dead and Noctuary, founding members Steve Nelson (guitars/ synth/ vocals) and Rob Alaniz (drums) sought out to form their own unique metal vision in late 2001/early 2002. After about a year they happened upon former guitarist Elizabeth Schall and enlisted the aid of friend and bassist Ruben Lugo, thus completing the line-up.

Winterthrall began writing and rehearsing for the recording of their first demo during the fall of 2003. The result of that labor was Autumn Caskets: a dark and aggressive piece of black metal that held no shortage of melody and atmosphere. The demo was well received and as 2003 went on, the band kept busy with a non-stop schedule of local and international shows.

In 2005 good friend Jeremy Peto (ex-morgion) joined on bass, with Ruben handling the 2nd guitar duties.

December 2006 will see the release of the first full length album "Nightmares for the Sleepless" on the bands own Murderous Dark Records. With a new addition to the line-up guitarist Josh Standifer, Ruben returns to Bass guitar and vocal duties.
