Nick GardnerEternal Lord is a British
Metalcore / Hardcore band that formed in 2005.History
Formed in 2005 from the ashes of
The Hunt For Ida Wave . In 2006, the band released a their self-titled EP throughThirty Days of Night Records , followed shortly by a split EP with Glasgow groupAzriel . Shortly after the release of the split, vocalist Sam Ricketts decided to quit the band to pursue his dream of becoming a tattoo artist. A search for a replacement vocalist began and the band recruited Ivan Ferreira ofThe Hurt Process . Ferreira was unable to join the group permanently due to other commitments, and was soon replaced by former The Hunt for Ida Wave andI Killed The Prom Queen vocalist Edward Butcher.Their debut album
Blessed Be This Nightmare was released throughout the UK and Europe on the 17th of March 2008 viaGolf Records and on the 18th March 2008 in the US viaFerret Music .In late May 2008 it was announced that drummer Stuart Mckay had abruptly quit the band just prior to them embarking on a US tour with
The Acacia Strain ,All Shall Perish and Since The Flood; reason being, a 3 week tour was too much to cope with after handling the stress of flying to the USA. In July 2008, Eddy Thrower was announced as the band's new drummer.In late August 2008 Edward Butcher walked out of the band after being threatened on myspace, by somebody attending a show on an upcoming tour. The vocalist of Deathcore band Random Conflict stepped in to take over vocal commitments for one gig. This follows the cancelation of a European tour by the band scheduled for October. Bassist Nick Gardner left shortly after to concertrate on his music degree at Bournemouth University.
