Discography
Shining in Solitude Single, 2003
Thy Kingdoom Come Full-length, 2004
A rare German entry into the doom metal field, Ludwigsburg's Doomshine formed in 2003 and followed their "Shining in Solitude" demo with a debut album entitled Thy Kingdoom Come the very next year, drawing immediate comparisons to genre purists like Candlemass and Solitude Aeturnus. Founded by guitarist Sven Podgurski following a pair of failed attempts in the power metal arena with former bands Spiral Tower and Tragedy Divine, Doomshine also features Tim Holz (vocals/guitar), Carsten Fisch (bass), and Markus Schlaps (drums). ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide
All Doomshine-members know each other since at last 1990 (before or after Christ, one don''t know exactly...). For inexplicable reasons they didn''t play together before late summer 2000 . Markus (dr.) spontaneously confirmed (not really clear-headed) a Gig. Sven (git., also playing in SPIRAL TOWER) refined the already existing songs which Markus, Timmy und Sascha presented him. Carsten was fetched back and forced to play bass. (Carsten was in this moment already in the band and in order to timeproblems sometimes outside...). Under the name SLEEP WITH THE DEVIL one absolved with the buddies of SEVEN OF NINE the first gig in Marbach (at that time still with friend,brother,singer and screamer Sascha on the mike ) on October 28th, 2000. Also playing: the depressed subcore-institution End of Green and the Thrash-Metal-fanatics Cockroach. In the following month songs were written nameless(SLEEP WITH THE DEVIL and the appendent songs are discarded!). Without thinking in categories the songs are almost automatically slow,heavy and melodic. Sascha leaves the band in order to reasons of motivation (but still may visit to drink beer). Brother Timmy does the vocal part now and one agreed relatively soon with the new bandname DOOMSHINE...
