Biography
Namely the so-called “Garden of Eden” reduced to an exploitable land and the “Misery” of mankind in its destructive behaviour...
Formed in Geneva in 2005, This Misery Garden is a dark rock/metal band aiming to deliver a genuine intense music. Melancholy threatening hope, anger defying serenity, all of those blend altogether to create a vivid and illuminating sound.
During the year 2007 TMG recorded a 3-Tracks demo-CD for promotional use and eventually began to record their first album “Another Great Day on Earth” (Discovery of the Month on Rockhard France - December 2009) the following year. Fourteen powerful yet melodic songs published in October 2009 by Galileo Records.
Following this release, TMG were played on Bruce Dickinson’s (Iron Maiden) “Friday Rock Show” on BBC6 and played some gigs all around Switzerland as well as supporting the Swedish band PAIN OF SALVATION.
Their sophomore full length “Cornerstone” has been recorded and mixed by Drop (Sybreed) at the “Downtone Studio” in Geneva (Switzerland) and mastered at the “Fascination Street Studio” in Orebro (Sweden) by Jens Bogren (Katatonia, Opeth, Paradise Lost). The new CD will be published on April 12th 2013 by the legendary French label “Season of Mist”.
Since then, TMG has opened for MOONSPELL and INSOMNIUM.
However, the goal is now to show the whole live dimension of their music through entertaining and professional performances.
In any way, This Misery Garden will not let you indifferent.
