Band information

Bane of Isildur is a Sydney melodic death metal band with a lyrical focus on Norse paganism, formed by McGill and Warboys who were previously with Malice and later joined by Cramer and Nicholl from Chapel. Originally known as The Ninth Wind and then Vangaard, the current name was settled upon to avoid confusion with the Finnish band Vanguard. A limited-edition demo was issued in 2006 and the band supported Amon Amarth in early 2008 and again in 2009. The Stormlords EP was completed in 2008 and was released in January 2009.

Andy Nicholl left the band in May 2009. The band's debut full length album Black Winds was released in 2010, following the departure of drummer Erik. Ray McGill has another band called Metal.
