Biography

The heavy metallic quest for the Holy Grail has been lasting for more than 5 years until today, but the sluggish arch enemy of the Grailknights, Dr. Skull, keeps on snatching the precious chalice away from the four coloured superheroes. It's up to the Battlechoir, the loyal hordes of Grailknights fans, and the noble beer-supplying steed Zapf Beauty to reconquer the Holy Grail at the end of every battle.

But Dr. Skull is wide awake, and has made two myrmidons his subjects: The malodorous orc Morph the Swarf and a gargantuan dragon, simply named Urks. There was only one possible solution for the Knights: Record a new CD as soon as possible, and use the power of their filed battlehymns to show Dr. Skull and his subjects their limits. "Alliance" is the synonym of the indestructable pact between the Grailknights and their powerful Battlechoir, as well as Melodic Death Metal at it's best.

"Join the Choir and get well tanked up in the ancient halls of Castle Grailskull! Grails high!"

Those who have already seen the Grailknights in battle know that it is a feast for ears and eyes. A visual firework combined with formidable battlehymns. The show, which pictures the costumed fight for the Holy Grail versus Dr. Skull, is the framework for intensive interaction with the audience. Nevertheless, one should take nothing more than a winking look at the show, as the music, that goes without saying, is the spotlight and the main reason for uncountable positive feedbacks and a constantly growing number of members in the Battlechoir!

The four Knights have already played many concerts and festivals, which have given proof to the superb reputation of being an unforgettable live band. Here one can mention the Dong Open Air 2006, the Kielowatt Festival 2006, the Last Night On Earth Festival 2006, the Steel meets Steel Festival 2007, the Winternachtstraum Festival 2008 and the Queens of Metal 2008. The band has the potential to become a true cult band, as there are more and more warriors in -Grailknights-armour" in front of stage.

In fall 2008, the Knights supported Sabaton on their "Art of Live Tour 2008" across Europe. Side by side, 20 cities in 11 countries were conquered, amongst others London, Glasgow, Copenhagen, Vienna, Hamburg and Warsaw.
