Orphanage
Last updated: 2 hours ago
Orphanage was a Dutch innovative metal band, which existed from 1987 till 2005.
They were one of the first Dutch metal bands who mixed death metal grunts with clean female vocals.
By mixing very different musical styles they have created their own unique sound.
In 1996, an era in which several new metal-styles and cross-overs arose in the landscape of metal, they described their style as "Innovative gregorian groovy celtic melodic danceable doom death metal".
Mid October 2005, almost 11 years after the release of their first album, the band split up.
Singer George Oosthoek is still frequently seen in the Dutch metal scene, performing as guest vocalist for other metal-bands (like Delain, After Forever and Within Temptation) or in his own bands like Pleurisy, Shinigami and Doghouse Gallows.
Guus Eikens became a member of Delain and works with them on studio records (songwriting and guitars), but he doesn't play live on stage.

George Oosthoek : Grunts and screams
