Info:
OSTROGOTH is an old school heavy metal band, based in Ghent, Belgium.
The band writes, records and plays their own music since the early ‘80s;
after many concerts and the release of three albums and one mini LP the
band split up in the summer of 1988.
On May 10th,2002 the band reunited to play a single show to celebrate the 20th
annyversary of their old label Mausoleum Records,later that summer Ostrogoth
played some more Belgian shows and played in Greece for the first time,
but late 2002 the story came to an end once again.
But the blood flows as long as one lives... so eight years later, Grizzly, Bronco,
WhiteShark and Red Star revived Ostrogoth again, after an offer to headline the
Ages Of Metal festival, in October 2010 and with new guitarist Dario Frodo on board,
Ostrogoth headlined the Up The Hammers festival in Athens, Greece, in March 2011.
Further plans for 2011 had to be put on hold as "WhiteShark" suffered a terrible table
saw accident in which he almost lost his left arm.
Early 2012 the band was operational again and started rehearsals for their postponed
gig at Germany’s Keep It True festival. But a mere two months before KIT, Red Star
decided to leave the band and new singer Josey Hindrix joined Ostrogoth. When Ostrogoth
was asked to play the Keep It True Festival in Germany, the band said in advance that
it was either gonna be a one-off performance, or it would turn into a new chapter,
depending on the crowd reaction to the show. The crowd was awesome, welcomed the new Ostrogoth
incarnation with open arms and sang along to every single one of the classic tunes.
KIT was new singer Josey Hindrix’ very first performance, after only four rehearsals.
Once more Ostrogoth survived a stressful period with yet a new member and started
to wrote a new album with "WhiteShark" diagnosed with a mortal cancer...he was able
to finish the recording session in Semptember 2014(the album was officially released
the 23rd January 2015)and played his final show the 6th of December 2014...
Pragmatic and realistic as he was, WhiteShark had a scenario for the future from the
day he was diagnosed with cancer. Ostrogoth never had to organize auditions to start
looking for another guitarist. From day one WhiteShark told the rest of the band...
“I want that guy to be my successor... when the time comes”. “That guy” was Geert Annys.
In the ‘80s, Geert was part of Belgian bands Stainless Steel, Thunderfire and Universe
and spent some time in Neo-Prophet several years ago, but he is best known for his work
on the debut album by melodic hard rock band Mystery.
So all scheduled live shows for 2015 will go ahead as planned, including Ostrogoth’s first
ever visit to the US, on May 1st, at Ragnarökkr Metal Apocalypse in Chicago...
