Konqueror
Konqueror
A heavy metal band that was formed in 2008, by Arthur Højgaard, Heini Djurhuus, Jaspur Jan Olsen and Kári Stórá Carlsen. The band went through several line-up changes throughout the years and this ultimately resulted with Heini Djurhuus and Jaspur Jan Olsen being the only original members during the band’s lifespan. Other band members include Benjamin Joensen, Dávid Reinert Petersen, Erland Joensen and Jafet Andreas Olsen.
The band was quite active in the Faroese metal scene, where they played in various local venues and festivals. They also performed in the first Wacken Metal Battle competition that was held in the Faroes.
In 2014, Konqueror released Embrace the Abyss, their only full-length album, after a lengthy recording process. In 2017 they released a single, Locked in Limbo, before the band members decided to go their separate ways to work on other projects.
