Twilight Force are a Swedish symphonic power metal band formed in 2011. The band's main lyrical themes are based on fantasy stories. Their first studio album, Tales of Ancient Prophecies, was released in 2014 by Black Lodge Records. The band's second album, Heroes of Mighty Magic, was released in 2016. An unnamed third album is in the works.

The band members play under the use of nicknames, and wear costumes on stage that mirror the band's lyrical themes. The group describes themselves as "adventure metal," in part due to the use of costumes, props, and demeanor onstage. The band has cited early role-playing games like Heroes of Might & Magic and table-top role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons as inspiration for their appearance.

History

The band was formed in 2011 by guitarist Philip Lindh and keyboardist Daniel Beckman. Even before they had a full band together, the duo already had many songs written. Some of these songs didn't make the cut for the first album, and would instead be used in later works.[1] Beckman, a lecturer, musician, and sound technician, was often touring or working with other acts, and at the time, vocalist Christian Eriksson (then known as Christian Hedgren) was living in Los Angeles, California. For this reason, Lindh and Beckman's project remained dormant for a few years until the rest of the members were able to commit to the band.

In early 2013, Beckman created a recording studio which Lindh and Beckman colloquially dubbed the "Twilight Forge", located in Beckman's home.[2] The studio was a major step in allowing band members to record, mix, and master tracks freely. Shortly after, bassist Dunder Björn Lundqvist, guitarist Jocke Leandro Johansson, drummer Daniel Sjögren, and vocalist Christian Eriksson were brought onto the project. The four had all previously played together in several split-up local bands from Falun, namely Mandrake,[3] SkyRide,[4] and Zia.[5][6] Although Sjögren was not immediately made a member of the band and was not featured on the band's debut album, he joined the group later as a replacement for then-drummer Robban Bäck, who was often busy and was unable to perform live.

The group made their debut performance in Madrid on November 30th, 2013, before they had actually released any material publicly, while Johansson and Eriksson had done an acoustic set together the night before.[7] Johansson played both sets with a broken index finger.[8] With plenty of material for an album, the band started work on their debut album recording, Tales of Ancient Prophecies, which was released in 2014 by Black Lodge Records. The album hit 29th position in Swedish charts.[9] Immediately after, the band began writing their second album.

In February 2016 the band announced they signed a deal with Nuclear Blast Records.[10] Later that year, on August 26, they released their label debut called Heroes of Mighty Magic with Joakim Brodén and Fabio Lione as guest vocalists.[11][12] In early October 2017, it was announced that Christian Eriksson had left the band. He was temporarily replaced by Tommy Johansson[13] during their tour as a special guest of DragonForce in October and November 2017.[14] The reasoning behind Eriksson's departure is unknown, though he claimed that he received a text from the other band members saying "Chrille, you are out of the band. We've found a replacement singer for this tour."[15] Additionally, the band cited his contribution to the works of the band as "nonexistent". In June 2018, Alessandro Conti was announced as the new vocalist.[16]

Work is underway on a third album. As of {{currentmonth}} 2019, much of the guitar work[17] and vocals are finished, though the band has been silent about any concrete release date.
