The Austrian band Jacobs Moor was founded by Richard Krenmaier, Johnny Sommerer and Rainer Lidauer. Richard Krenmaier is already well known by metal fans throughout Europe as the singer of the Power Metal band Stygma IV.
In autumn 2013 the trio finished producing their debut album “All That Starts”.
At the same time the live line-up was completed with Johannes Pichler and Rupert Träxler on guitars and Stephan Först on bass. Rupert and Stephan are already well known in the mid-European Progressive Metal scene through their work with Circle Of Illusion (www.circleofillusion.com).
The band produced their first video of the song „Faceless Man“ which was filmed and edited by René Huemer (www.renehuemer.com) who is also Jacobs Moor’s live-photographer. After months of rehearsing the band played a highly acclaimed album-release-concert in Upper Austria and began building their fan community.
In June 2014 Jacobs Moor have signed an online distribution deal with Bleeding Star Records. „All That Starts“ is available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify and almost every well-known online store worldwide.
“All That Starts” got great reviews all over the world.
In February 2015 Jacobs Moor got honored with an Austrian Newcomer Award and played at the award presentation in the big music theatre in Linz. Besides many club gigs the band supported the legendary US-Thrash/Speed Metal pioneers Flotsam And Jetsam in Vienna.
In November 2015 “The Evil In Me” has been released, an EP with two new songs and four live songs, which were recorded at the live-debut/album release concert in April 2014. The EP was introduced to the fans at three concerts; one has been filmed again, so there will be some new videos pretty soon. “The Evil In Me” has already got very good reviews again.
In 2016 Jacobs Moor will record their 2nd full-length album, the songwriting is already finished!
