On a black winter’s day in January 2006 SPIRIT OF THE FUTURE SUN, was born in the FUTURE SUN Camp in Alfdorf, Germany. Initiating members and drink-a-lots were Philipp Frick (ex- Immortal Rites), Mirko Rack (ex- Caddyshack) and Christoph Kinkel (ex- Haunted Gorge). Shortly after Aiko Semler joined the band and by the end of the year the circle of the FUTURE SUN was closed by Benni Weimar (Ex-Agoknight). In January 2009 we had a short eclipse of the FUTURE SUN as Christoph decided to leave the Band, caused by further education in his job. We thank him and wish him all the best on his way. Patrick Betz joined the band one month later and closed the circle again.
The Name is based on a very old traditional Chinese legend which is still alive and has been narrated for hundreds of years. Imagine your guardian ghost deep within your heart that guides you through this darkening world, your SPIRIT OF THE FUTURE SUN.
The Music is a fusion of integral rock and modern melodic death metal elements.
When IN FLAMES, SOILWORK and HOOBASTANK collide.
In spring 2007 we entered the Audiospezialist studio in Bittenfeld and recorded with our Producer Martin Schmidt a six track demo called “The Orchid of Jin Shan” which saw in June light of day. The feedback was so great, the 200 copies were sold out in only days.
On the 6th August 2007 we had our first live show, 1300 people going crazy near our home town in Schwäbisch Gmünd. Furthermore we shared over 20 Stagekills with acts like Ektomorf, Hatesphere, Sinister, Evocation or our neighbour brothers Bleeding Red to only name a few, so the shows keep on running.
Several members of the Future Sun collected over 10 years experience in other bands, but never had such an incredible and breathtaking admission from the beginning by such a crowd of nice people coming to our concerts and supporting us in any way.
We have written 11 new qualified songs with 42:41 minutes total playing time, in our Future Sun Camp, to celebrate our first full length album which is titled “The Constellation Park”. Producer Martin Schmidt recorded, mixed and mastered this unbelievable and PROFESSIONAL result in his High End Audiospezialist Studios. Photo shooting for the Album did Star Photographer Alex Kuehr. Currently is a 16 site booklet with our cover designer Alexander Mann, as well as a new homepage in progress.
