Originally formed in 2001, Germany's Equilibrium joined scores of new millennium heavy metal bands devoted to penning songs steeped in the cultural traditions, legends, and folklore of their homeland, in Equilibrium's case, the historically significant state of Bavaria, a wellspring of regional material for populating the group's symphonic brand of pagan-folk-black metal. The group's 2005 debut album, Turis Fratyr, featured the lineup of vocalist Helge Stang, guitarists René Berthiaume and Andreas Völkl, bassist Sandra Völkl, drummer Julius Koblitzek, and guest keyboard player Armin Dörfler. Three years later, Equilibrium returned with Sagas, which kicked off a new relationship with Nuclear Blast Records, introduced new drummer Manuel DiCamillo, and carried on bringing traditional Bavarian elements into the world of extreme metal. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia
