HistoryValkyre was formed at the end of 2004 and the beginning of 2005 by Kris Scheerlinck after leaving his former band Sengir. The band consists of different well-trained musicians coming from different styles of music but with the same common interest: melodic atmospheric metal. Only a few months after the first gigs the band decided in the autumn of 2005 to record a demo at the Excess studio in the Netherlands with Hans Pieters known for his work with After Forever, Epica and Gorefest. This demo was for sale since the spring of 2006 until 2016 and resulted in excellent sales worldwide and successful concerts through Benelux, France and Italy. In 2007 the band hired Cid Jimenez as the new violin player to replace Joris Derder, who left because of a shortage of time due to his professional musical career. He still supports the band today with the Ghent University Choir. In September 2007 the band recorded its second demo Consolamentum, at the Excess studio. The demo was first released at the Metal Female Voices Fest in October 2007 and was immediately sold out. In November 2007 lead singer Mieke Diependael decided she wanted to give another direction to her life. Mieke's last concert was the Darkfest in Italy in February 2008. In March 2008 Valkyre welcomed Kristell Lowagie (ex-Skeptical Minds) as new lead singer, but she left the band in January 2009. After a break of 2 years, approx. 100 gigs all around Europe and a lot of band member line-up changes (Kris Scheerlink is the only original band member), Valkyre signed with German record label Valkyrie Rising in 2013, which lead to the release of their first full studio album "Our Glorious Demise" in feb'14, recorded at the Jonathas Studios by Xavier Carion (ex-Channel Zero) and mixed and mastered by Siggi Bemm. This album received a lot of good reviews from all over Europe. In nov'16 the band announced they had parted ways with lead-vocalist Claudia Michelutti. Valkyre is currently working on their second full album and follow-up of their 2014's Our Glorious Demise, named The Laudanum Dysphoria. This album will feature guest-appearances of Liv Kristine (Midnattsol, ex-Leaves Eyes, ex-Theatre of Tragedy), Liesbeth Cordia (ex-Eve's Fall) and Marieke Bresseleers (Circle Unbroken, Lords of Acid) StyleValkyre's style can be described as a mixture of gothic metal, classical music, folk music and melodic metal.
