In 2016 SCROLLKEEPER formed in Houston, Texas to celebrate traditional and original heavy metal. The first sign of life was the EP "Fortune Favors The Bold", which was recorded during rehearsals for the first show, opening up for Hammerfall. Further gigs with Dirkschneider, Manilla Road, Angra and Cloven Hoof were to follow.The song "Surrender" made it onto the compilation "Doomed And Stoned In Texas", which featured acts like Solitude Aeturnus or Deadhorse. Further EPs and singles were made available digitally. In 2019, they again played high-profile shows with bands like Saxon, Voivod, Enforcer, Warbringer and BTR.SCROLLKEEPER‘s first album, "Auto Da Fe", was initially only available digitally, but was then made available physically by the True Metal Records label. The track "Devil's Calculus" can be found on the Golden Core sampler "Damn, This Stuff Is Heavy - Vol. 2".In 2021 they were without a drummer for a short time, so the idea came about that the German drummer Neudi (ex-Manilla Road, Trance, Griffin, Jameson Raid, Roxxcalibur, ex-Savage Grace, etc.) would record three tracks for the upcoming EP "Wetiko". They now have a permanent drummer in Krystal Salinas, who can be heard on the three other tracks on the EP. The last song is of course a cover version of Hallow‘s Eve and their bassist Tommy Stewart features as a guest. "Metal Merchants" rounds off the disc perfectly. Scrollkeeper are both traditional and idiosyncratic. This can become addictive after a few runs...
