Биография

Early Sculptured songs took their inspiration from the progressive and melodic nature of Chuck Schuldiner’s ever-evolving ideas. Three recorded songs surfaced on that year’s "Fulfillment in Tragedy" demo tape, and some of that material also landed on Sculptured’s debut full-length album, "The Spear of the Lily is Aureoled." In the late ‘90s, Anderson began working with John Haughm and Jason Walton in Agalloch, and both Agalloch’s "Pale Folklore" and Sculptured’s sophomore record, "Apollo Ends," benefitted from the trio’s collaboration. It would be years before Anderson was ready to record his next fleshed out statement, the atonal and rather darker "Embodiment." The record retained Walton on bass, and the band was now joined by vocalist Tom Walling, Estradasphere drummer Dave Murray and Winds/Age of Silence keyboardist Andy Winter. Sculptured returns in force with "The Liminal Phase," which truly feels like a culmination of the experience that the current band have developed in their many years as working musicians. Anderson, Walton and Winter are joined by drummer Martti Hill and guitarist/vocalist Marius Sjøli. In 2021, "The Liminal Phase" acts as a bold continuation of Anderson’s vision for Sculptured, as well as a reintroduction to the wonders the band has to offer to fans both old and new.
