• welcome to

was originally founded as “HELL´S BREATH” in Winter 2008 in Minden (NW), Germany. After intense rehersing the band soon created their first songs while changing the band name to “PANDORIUM”. Shortly afterwards the 3-Track-Demo EP “DEMOlition” (2011) emerged, which proved as a springboard for many gigs. After a line up change on guitars and drums the band recorded the work “The Human Art of Depression” at Metalsound-Studio (Osterode am Harz, Germany) in summer 2013, which was written almost entirely by Fadil. The Album contains the promo songs taken from DEMOlition, as well as 6 additional Songs, elaborated to the last detail. At first self-released, later in 2015 the Album was Re-released by Cologne (GER) based record Label “BHR”.

After an album-club tour 2014/2015 in Germany and the Netherlands, the well attuned quartet played some more shows in 2016 while working on new material for a worthy follower to “The Human Art of Depression”.

In 2017 drummer Jannik and bassist Schlotti decided to leave the band heavy-heartedly due to personal reasons. After finishing songwriting for the new album, PANDORIUM got complete again with J.B on Bass and Florian Burkardt on Drums.
The band released their new masterpiece “The Eye of the Beholder” 2019 via Roll The Bones Records with the „Actuating The Beholding Eye 2019“ - tour alongside. Musically the album ties on the previous work while expanding the mixture of styles even more.

After a pause, PANDORIUM is back again and started working on new material for the 3rd studio album.

Generally PANDORIUM´s musical emphasis is put on melancholic, dissonant and exotic sounds, which are well accentuated through fast rhythms, sophisticated riffs and many guitar-solos. Blending classical guitar-sections with Flamenco-inspired sounds is a characteristic, making a nice contrast to the forceful distorted guitars. The guttural vocals emphasize the aggressive aspect of the music.
Lyrically the band deals with human abyss, both individual and collectively in a philosophical way, while emphasizing the freedom of individual thoughts.
Proved at many shows, the band knows how to leave an unforgettable impression on the audience by creating exciting live shows and virtuosic performance…blunt imitation of renowned bands isn´t their cup of tea!

    PANDORIUM 2025

    Long time no see…but in order to continue with genius german poetry: Unkraut vergeht nicht ;).

    Although guitarist Marv and bassist J.B. have decided to merely play some well-chosen gigs, Burki and me are currently working on new material for a worthy successor for „The Eye Of The Beholder“. Therefore the guitarist and bassist position is to be filled in the midterm. If you´re interested, drop us an E-Mail: info@pandoriumband.com.

    We´re looking forward to open a new chapter with this wonderful band.

    Greetings
    Fadil and Burki
