Biography

Frozen Shade was founded by Shade Frost in 2006 right after he left his band Desmodus. Shade left the band because of some creativity issues. Then he decided he wanted to create his own band, but it didn't worked out the way he wanted to. He thought that people were afraid of taking chances and close minded, so that's why he decided to create everything by himself. Frozen Shade's first albums were instrumental demos and made by Shade with the help of a sequencer. He then tried to make his own songs by sampling, chopping and rearranging different types of sounds. He then release a demo with real instruments under the name ''Ectopasm - X''. Eventually, ''Ectoplasm - X'' became Frozen Shade aswel. He released and sold and gave around 100 copies of different demo CD's on silver CDs, all signed and hand numbered by Shade. Some demos had alternate songs on it and 500 copies were supposed to be released in total... but Shade stopped making them because he wanted to release a professionally recorded album and was tired of selling his demos on silver CD's. He wanted to offer more to his fans than just crappy recorded demo songs. He then disappeared from the map for a year or so to clean his mind and fight his own demons. In 2010 he took a break from everything and during his free time started playing guitar again. Shade recorded 10 demos in less than a month between june and july 2010. In August 2010 Shade started studying in Sound Engineering at Musitechnic in Montreal, Qc to learn how to record, mix, master his own music. He's planning on re-recording his Frozen Shade demos (from 2010) and step into the studio next september to record his first Frozen Shade album with professional musicians. Shade is still currently working on the album but most of it is done. He's planning the release of the first Frozen Shade album sometime in 2012.
