Under Her Black Wings | bands | PORTALL
Biography
Portall started in
2003 in Zwolle, The Netherlands. But when their second guitarist
decided to quit and they recruited replacement, the musical
style changed a lot and all material and recordings were flushed.
Portall 2.0 released a demo already in April 2003, resulting in a
range of gigs.
In 2004 Portall won
the Metalbattle, a metalband competition, which gave them the
opportunity to record their first EP titled “In the Absence of
Light”. The 5 track counting EP was well received by metalheads and
media. In 2005 Portall reached the finals of Aardschok’s (Hollands
leading metal magazine) Metalbash. Portalls straight forward trash
metal worked out pretty well, because they ended second place, just one
point short of winning.
2006 and 2007
brought a lot of touring, based on the EP and both successful
metalband competitions. Late 2007 Portall signs a record deal with
Under Her Black Wings. The band now starts focusing more on writing a
killer debut album “Code Black”. Portall releases the debut album
“Code Black” on January 31 2009
