Formed
in São Paulo - 2002. The ARkKAM’s trajectory had begun in 2002, in São Paulo,
when four high-school friends formed a band to have some fun. Between them, the
bassist Eduardo Merino and the guitarist Rafael Manfrere – two friend with big
plans to the future. After a few time and the break-up of some members, Eduardo
and Rafael decided to continue with the band’s history, forming a new line-up.
Had begun the search for new members when, in the October of 2003 was called
the first drummer for an audition: owner of monstrous skills and musical taste
as the searched for. Just some songs were enough to confirm Caio Pavanelli as
the new drummer. Two days later the band was called for a show in a festival.
The band didn’t have an official vocalist, so the friend Wendell Lopes was
invited to help them on the vocals, and after to join the band as another
guitarist. The Arkkam was almost formed: only a vocalist was missing. After
some auditions with some vocalists (some of them starting good friendships with
another musicians) the band was warming up the engines to start the rehearsal
when, suddenly, they listen some music coming from another rehearsal room in
the studio. “F#uck! The vocalist sounds amazing!” were the commentaries. Later
they discovered that was not a rehearsal of that band, but a test for that
vocalist! Then, after an epic telephonic miracle, the bassist Eduardo calls him
to a test too, in the next week. A test with great results, because at its end
the Arkkam’s official frontman, owner of a powerful voice and huge charisma
joined the band: Vinicius Reyes. Arkkam’s breakthrough EP “The Dreaming” –
produced and recorded by Udo Stramm – is in the last stage of production,
counting with four amazing songs, showing all the potential of this independent
Brazilian Heavy Metal band.
