Biography
Formed in 2002, the pan-European quintet Time Requiem fused power and neo-classical metal with progressive rock and AOR through its original lineup of vocalist Apollo Papathanasio (also of Meduza), guitarist Magnus Nordh, keyboardist Richard Anderson (Space Odyssey, Majestic, etc.), bassist Dick Lövgren, and drummer Peter Wildoer (also Darkane). Their self-titled debut arrived the next year and was quickly followed by the live album Unleashed in Japan, after which the group swapped out its rhythm section for bassist Jonas Reingold of The Flower Kings and drummer Zoltan Csorsz. In 2004 the band released its sophomore effort, The Inner Circle of Reality.
