The next album, Dominion, was released in 1997. Later that year, two of the band's members were replaced; drummer and founder Richard Warner and lead vocalist Mark Vanderbilt. Respectively, their replacements were Casey Grillo and Roy Khan (Roy S?tre ?Khan? Khantatat from Elverum in Norway - formerly of Conception). With the two new members, Kamelot released their third studio album, Siege Perilous. The new line-up undertook an extensive tour through Europe during the fall of the same year only to return to the Gate Studio in Wolfsburg twelve months later to produce the fourth studio effort The Fourth Legacy. The summer of 2000 brought the "New Allegiance Tour" through Germany, Austria, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Greece and Spain during which the recordings for Kamelot's first live album The Expedition were made. Only a few months later the band presented their fifth album entitled Karma, to the greatest critical success yet. Their sixth album, Epica was released in 2003. Both Epica and the band's seventh effort, The Black Halo, which was released in 2005, are based on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's version of the legend of Faust, a man who sells his soul to the devil. To support the new album the band went on tour through Europe and Japan during the first leg of the "Black Halo World Tour 2005", they played a head liner show with Epica and Kotipelto. In Japan the support was Silent Force. They also played on the Bang Your Head. Festival in Germany and the Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium. In 2005 they shot their first music videos ever, for the songs The Haunting (Somewhere In Time) and March Of Mephisto from the album The Black Halo. Both videos were shot by acclaimed director Patric Ullaeus. The 5th of October 2005 saw the addition of Oliver Palotai as the fifth official band member. Oliver will handle both keyboards and (additional) guitars. On the second leg of the "Black Halo World Tour" they visited North and South America (USA, Canada, Brazil) as well as Europe (The Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden and Norway). During this part of the tour the bands first live DVD was shot, with the main concert being shot on February 11th, 2006 at Rockefeller Music Hall in Oslo, Norway. The shoot was again handled by Patric Ullaeus. The DVD (and live CD) called One cold winter's night was released in November 2006. Ghost Opera is the eighth studio album from Kamelot. It was released on June 1st, 2007 via SPV/Steamhammer Records, in Germany and then followed by releases on the fourth and fifth in Europe and the USA, respectively. The album was recorded and mixed at Gate Studios and Pathway Studios in Wolfsburg, Germany with producers Sascha Paeth and Miro. The first video from the album is for the track Ghost Opera, and can be seen on the band's official MySpace site. A video for the song The Human Stain was shot and released later. Following this was their ninth studio album, Poetry for the Poisoned. It was released on the earMUSIC label, a subdivision of Edel, on September 10, 2010 in Europe, and four days later in North America by the band's own label, KMG Recordings. The release sees the return of founding member Sean Tibbetts (who formerly used the stage name Sean Christians) on bass guitar. A video was recorded for the song "The Great Pandemonium" and released on the band's official YouTube channel on September 6 (it's also included on the Special Edition DVD release of the album). Simone Simons returns to supply guest vocals on a few songs. Amanda Somerville, Gus G. and Bj?rn "Speed" Strid are also featured.

Progressive elements seen in later albums are rare and discreet, and the band are yet to develop a lot of the more exotic flavours heard in their later songs. But overall, there are still some great compositions on this record. There are very few keyboard parts and the musicianship is nowhere near that of most prog/power metal bands, but that doesn't prevent a few memorable riffs popping up, such as 'Eternity' and 'The Gleeman', and 'Etude Jongleur is a nice, though short, melodic passage. There isn't really much else to say about this album to be honest. If you're a fan of Kamelot then it's worth getting, and I think it's generally worth picking up for anyone if you can find it cheap somewhere. Kamelot didn't really hit their stride until keyboards became a more primary instrument and with the addition of vocalist of Roy Khan (who, if you're already a Kamelot fan prior to buying this album, you'll definitely notice his absence), but this still holds up well as a look at a young band who will definitely go on to better things. Kamelot Eternity. Power metal is a very love it or hate it genre. To its fans, power metal is full of epic songs with top-notch musicianship. To its detractors, power metal is cheesy and overdone, with overly fast guitar, and generic fantasy lyrics. However, Kamelot has largely escaped the typical criticism that most power metal bands get, largely due to their successful albums Karma , Epica , and The Black Halo . Kamelot are even sometimes cited as one of the best bands in their genre. However, if someone were to listen to their debut album Eternity , they would fail to understand why. Eternity is not a poor album. On the contrary, in most respects it is a decent album. Thomas Youngblood, while not being the guitarist he would one day become, still provides solid riffs throughout most of the songs, and has several entertaining solos, such as on "Red Sands" and "One of the Hunted." Richard Warner is a solid drummer that, while never really standing out, does a good job of keeping the band together and keeping the beat. His best work is showcased on "Warbird," where he plays some quite entertaining patterns in the beginning and end. Bassist Glenn Barry and keyboardist David Pavlicko mostly blend into the background, but still have their brief moments. All this would normally be acceptable, especially considering that this is that band's debut, and thus minor flaws and uneven points can be forgiven. However, one thing that cannot be forgiven is the vocals. Vocalist Mark Vanderbilt is primarily responsible for the weakness of Eternity . He sounds like a complete Geoff Tate wannabe, while being not even close to Tate's quality. That wouldn't be so bad, but Vanderbilt is simply not a very good vocalist. He frequently sounds shaky, and when he attempts to pull off high notes, it sounds absolutely awful. The worst part of this is that he drags the whole band down with him. There are several moments on this album where is sounds as if the band will begin to rise above "decent", and then he comes back in with his awful high notes, such as in "Warbird" and "Fire Within". His sole passable vocal performance is on the ballad "What About Me", which is easily the best track on the album. The other aspects of the album vary in their quality. Another weak aspect of the album is that most songs have some noticeable tempo change take place. While sometimes that changes are executed well, other times, most notably on "The Gleeman", the change is very sudden, and it can be rather jarring to hear it. The lyrics range from good to passable, never managing to stand out in either a good or bad way. Occasionally, the album suffers from lack of variety, mainly from the lyrical topics, and occasionally some guitar riffs. Ultimately, Eternity shows how one member can seriously weaken the entire band. However, if the listener is willing to forgive Vanderbilt for his worst moments, Eternity is a solid debut record that features decent performances and songwriting, while leaving plenty of room for improvement. Kamelot eternity album download. In 1991 Kamelot was founded by guitarist Thom Youngblood and drummer/school mate Richard Warner, but it wasn't until August 1995 that the band's debut album, Eternity, was released. Kamelot had signed with Noise Records (Germany) in the spring of 1994 in order to prepare for the release. Fans and critics alike praised Kamelot as being one of the most promising newcomers in metal. In 1996 their second album, Dominion, received even more attention, because it showed the variety of the band, spanning all the way from European progressive metal to classical music. The fans and sales for Kamelot would grow over the year and the group was being touted as one the new leaders in melodic metal from the United States. Not resting on their laurels, the group went back to work on their 3rd and most important release. But obstacles were ahead. 1997 was a year of major changes. After the success of Dominion, many tour opportunities were presented to Kamelot. Unfortunately drummer Richard Warner and vocalist Mark Vanderbilt could not tour and there seemed to be no light at the end of the tunnel for the two to ever tour. Kamelot's first goal was to find a new drummer. After one audition, Casey Grillo was chosen as Warner's replacement. A local music veteran at the age of 21, Casey was a perfect fit for the opening. After listening to between 75 and 100 audition tapes of vocalists, the band was at a standstill. A whole record had been written but no one worthy enough to grab the mic. Enter Norwegian-born Roy Khan. Khan's former group Conception had split up the year before: that marked the genesis of the new Kamelot. Before he was taken on as a band member he had to pass one final test: skydiving with the band members of Kamelot. Apprehensive at first, Khan succeeded with flying colors. The chemistry was perfect from the beginning and it was a great sign of what was to come from this union. In 1998 new vocalist Roy Khan and drummer Casey Grillo were enlisted and the record Siege Perilous was now a reality. The record spawned great reviews from fans and critics, which led to the group's first-ever tour of Europe in late 1998. Upon returning to their hometown of Tampa, Florida the band decided to take some time off to write and relax. In December 1998 the journey for The Fourth Legacy would begin after the Kamelot tour. Writing began in Tampa, Florida, but after a month of work Thomas Youngblood decided to relocate to the mountains of Virginia to concentrate on songs and get a different vibe for the record. March 1999 - after 3 months of ideas, Thomas traveled to the small village of Sorskogbygda in Norway, home of vocalist Roy Khan. 3 weeks of isolation in the snowy village proved the songwriting team of Youngblood and Khan to be a formidable force. Sascha Paeth (Angra, Rhapsody) was then enrolled as the band's producer. Back in Florida, the band concluded pre-production of the album. For a month the group worked out the kinks of the new songs with producer Sascha Paeth. In August 1999 recording began in Wolfsburg, Germany and continued through to October. Choirs, real string sections and guest keyboardist Miro would round out the final songs to a beautiful blend. Mixing would be done over the next month and final mastering completed in November. The new record would set a new standard for Kamelot and raised the bar for the melodic metal genre. January 2000 - The Fourth Legacy was released in January and received rave reviews from the media, touted as album of the year by many. In April Kamelot toured across Europe with Crimson Glory and Evergrey, accompanied by Gunter Werno (Vanden Plas) as a guest keyboardist. In September the live album The Expedition was recorded during Kamelot's April tour through Europe. The songs were recorded and mastered by Sascha Paeth and then the album was completed by adding three rare tracks. In the spring of 2001 Thomas and Khan had been living in Wolfsburg, Germany in order to record Karma. Like The Fourth Legacy, the album was produced by Sascha Paeth and Miro in the Gate Studio, Wolfsburg. Miro not only worked as a producer and sound engineer, but also contributed all keyboards and orchestral arrangements heard on the album. Additionally Olaf Hayer (Luca Turilli), Robert Hunecke-Rizzo (Virgo, Heavens Gate) and Cinzia Rizzo (backing vocals) become contributors in the recording process. Kamelot's 12 new songs included "Don't You Cry", an ode to Youngblood's father who died when Thomas was 12. Kamelot's approach in this case was seen as intense and ambitious in their intention. In 2003 Kamelot released Epica, a concept album loosely based on Faust by Goethe, and follows the character of Ariel as he searches for the meaning of life, and in the process sells his soul to the devil, Mephisto, and loses the woman he loves, Helena, to put it simply. In 2005 the band continued with their adaptation of Faust, this time regarding the battle between good and evil: a concept that began with Epica. Perhaps fitting the ambitious theme of the album, Kamelot were supported by various guest musicians during the recordings of The Black Halo, including superstar vocalist Shagrath (Dimmu Borgir), and the extremely talented Stratovarius keyboardist, Jens Johansson. The Black Halo was produced mainly at the Pathway and Gate Studios in Wolfsburg under the direction of Sascha Paeth and Miro. Guest musicians also included Simone Simons (Epica), Mari (Masqueraid), and the Kamelot choir consisting of Herbie Langhans (7th Avenue), Amanda Somerville-Scharf, Miro, Gerit G�bel, Thomas Rettke (Heavens Gate) and Elisabeth Kjaernes, to name a few. The Black Halo deals with themews of love, wonder, life, and death through the eyes of Kamelot. In 2006, following another successful album, Kamelot released their first live DVD, entitled One Cold Winter's Night, directed by the well-known film company Revolver Films and world-renowned director Patric Ullaeus. The DVD was heralded by the press and fans alike and set a new standard for DVDs in the genre. Youngblood and Khan have been able to rely on longstanding friends Casey Grillo and Glenn Barry, while keyboardist Oliver Palotai was added to the Kamelot fold in 2006 as a permanent member. Fans of the bands Doro and Blaze know Palotai's skills very well, and he proved to be a force live, on Kamelot's Black Halo World Tour. Since then bassist Sean Tibbetts has returned, replacing Glenn Barry in 2009. 1991- Thomas Youngblood - guitars 1997- Casey Grillo - drums 2005- Oliver Palotai - keyboards 1991-1992 Sean Tibbetts - bass � 2009- - //- 1991-1997 Mark Vanderbilt - vocals 1991-1997 Richard Warner - drums 1992-2009 Glenn Barry - bass 1995-1998 David Pavlicko - keyboards 1997-2011 Roy "Khan" S�tre Khantatat - vocals. 1995 - Eternity 1997 - Dominion 1998 - Siege Perilous 1999 - The Fourth Legacy 2000 - The Expedition (Live Album) 2001 - Karma (Japanese Edition) 2003 - Epica (Limited Edition) 2005 - The Black Halo (Limited Edition) 2006 - One Cold Winter's Night (Live Album) 2007 - Ghost Opera - The Second Coming [Reissued] 2007 - Myths & Legends Of Kamelot [Compilation] 2010 - Poetry For The Poisoned & Live From Wacken (Limited Tour Edition) (2CD) [Reissued] Kamelot eternity album download. Kamelot is an American power metal band from Tampa, Florida, formed by Thomas Youngblood and Richard Warner in 1991. The Norwegian vocalist Roy Khan joined for the album Si�ge Perilous, and shared songwriting credit with Youngblood until his departure in April 2011. On June 22, 2012, Youngblood announced on their website that their new vocalist is the Swedish singer Tommy Karevik, who was first featured on Kamelot's album Silverthorn as main vocalist, co-songwriter and lyricist. As of 2015, Kamelot had released eleven studio albums (excluding two reissues), two live albums, one live DVD, and seventeen music videos.

Kamelot was officially founded in Florida by Thomas Youngblood and Richard Warner in 1991. Three years later, the band signed a deal with Noise Records and released its first album, Eternity, in 1995. The next album, Dominion, was released in 1997. Later that year, the drummer and founder Warner and the lead vocalist Mark Vanderbilt were replaced by drummer Casey Grillo and vocalist Roy Khan (formerly of Conception). With these two new members, Kamelot released its third studio album, Siege Perilous, in 1998. The band undertook its first tour during toward the end of the year, playing shows across Europe. Following this, the band returned to Tampa to write music for a new album titled The Fourth Legacy. Karma, Epica and The Black Halo (2000-2005) In mid-2000, Kamelot undertook the "New Allegiance Tour" through Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Greece and Spain, during which the recordings for Kamelot's first live album The Expedition were made. A few months later, the band released its fifth album, Karma. The sixth album, Epica, was released in 2003. To support the Epica album, the band toured through Europe (with At Vance as a supporting band) and Japan. Both Epica and the band's seventh album, The Black Halo, which was released in 2005, are based on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's version of the legend of Faust, a man who sells his soul to the devil. To support the new album, the band toured through Europe and Japan. During the first leg of the "Black Halo World Tour 2005", Kamelot played a headliner show with Epica and Kotipelto. In Japan, the supporting group was Silent Force. The band also played at the Bang Your Head. Festival in Germany and the Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium. In 2005, Kamelot made its first music videos for the songs "The Haunting (Somewhere in Time)" and "March of Mephisto" from the album The Black Halo. Both videos were shot by the prolific director Patric Ullaeus. On October 5, 2005, Kamelot added Oliver Palotai as the fifth official band member; Palotai played both keyboards and (additional) guitars. On the second leg of the Black Halo World Tour, Kamelot visited North America (Canada and the United States), South America (Brazil), and Europe (Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden). On February 11, 2006, the band's live DVD, One Cold Winter's Night was filmed by Patric Ullaeus at the Rockefeller Music Hall in Oslo, Norway. It was released on November 17, 2006, in Germany, on November 20 in other parts of Europe, and on November 21 in the US and Canada via SPV Records. Ghost Opera, Poetry for the Poisoned and Khan's departure (2006-2010) In late-2006, the band returned to Gate Studios in Wolfsburg, Germany, to record the album, Ghost Opera, which was released on June 1, 2007, in Germany, on June 4 in the rest of Europe, and on June 5 in the US. The album was recorded and mixed at Gate Studios and Pathway Studios in Wolfsburg with the producers Sascha Paeth and Miro. Music videos were made for the songs "Ghost Opera", "The Human Stain", "Rule the World" and "Love You to Death". A re-issue of Ghost Opera, labeled Ghost Opera: the Second Coming, was released shortly after its predecessor. It contains the entire original Ghost Opera album and a second CD with ten live songs recorded during a concert in Belgrade, Serbia, with the additional bonus tracks, "Season's End", "The Pendulous Fall", "Epilogue" and "Rule the World (Remixed)". The World Tour 2008-2009 for Ghost Opera included three legs in Europe and one US Tour, support bands were Edguy, Firewind, Leave's Eyes, Delain and Serenity.

In December 2009, Youngblood announced that the bass guitarist Glenn Barry had officially left the band and had been replaced by the touring bass guitarist and an original Kamelot member, Sean Tibbetts. In January 2009, Kamelot started working on their ninth studio album, in a cabin in Norway. It was said that the band was exploring "new sounds" and that the topics on the new album would be diverse. During early 2010, Kamelot published the titles of three songs from the upcoming album on their official website: "The Great Pandemonium", "Hunter's Season" and "Thespian Drama". They also revealed that guest musicians would appear: Simone Simons (she provided vocals for the ballad "House on a Hill" and the album's title track), and later Gus G, of the Greek power metal band Firewind. On March 25, 2010, they began the "Pandemonium over Europe" tour, which ended on April 26, 2010. Afterward, the band revealed the title of their ninth studio album as Poetry for the Poisoned. It was released by earMUSIC (the international label of the entertainment group Edel) in Europe on September 10, 2010, and by the band's own label KMG Recordings (via Knife Fight Media and Dismanic Distribution) in North America on September 14, 2010.

On September 6, 2010, the band announced that Khan had fallen seriously ill during rehearsals for the upcoming North American tour, just a few days before its scheduled start, and had returned to Norway. While it was initially reported that the band would continue the tour with the Norwegian vocalist Michael Eriksen of Circus Maximus in Khan's place, the band later announced that it would postpone the tour with Khan, though one show was performed with Eriksen at the ProgPower USA XI festival in Atlanta, Georgia, on September 10, 2010. However, on December 16, due to Khan's lingering illness, it was announced that Fabio Lione of Rhapsody of Fire would replace Khan for the remaining and rescheduled dates on the Pandemonium over Latin America, Europe and North America tours in 2011, and later the 70,000 Tons of Metal Cruise in 2012.
