Eternal Gray Bio

Eternal Gray members first met as fill-ins in for the band "BETRAYER", they were known from previous bands from north and central Israel, and brought together to perform with the lead vocalist Tomas Lindberg (former AT THE GATES) in the summer of 1999.

Due to the success of this performance, the members continued to play together keeping BETRAYER alive and the music hard and heavy.
A year passed, professional differences between the vocalist and the rest of the band grew, differences about what kind of metal they should play.

Eventually the band separated in the summer of 2001, in a final farewell concert with ROTTING CHRIST, a band with which they had previously played with in the winter of 1998. During this show the separation of BETRAYER was announced, as was announced that the rest of the band will stay together as ETERNAL GRAY.

As ETERNAL GRAY they decided to record their debut album, in the best and most professional manner, so they flew to Sweden to record it at the renowned Abyss studios, with Tommy Tagtgren as their sound engineer.

Together with "button master" Tommy Tagtgren, their album titled "KINDLESS" achieved stunning sound quality. The title was chosen to describe the album, meaning two things: first "kind-less" as in not very kind (or simply brutal), and second was "kind-less" as a unique album which has no kind like itself.

Kindless was released under Raven Music Israel.

Dory and Eyal joined together with Roy (drums) and Gil (bass) and started performing Kindless and new materials.

In early 2004, Eternal Gray, vocalist Eyal and drummer Roy's ways were separated, a situation which has left Dory and Gil to look after a new vocalist, drummer and guitarist.

A year passed by, a guitarist, drummer and vocalist were found and the band recorded an EP titled Deeds of Hate, which will be released soon.
