Pharaoh is an American power metal band.

Band history

The band was formed in 1997 in Pennsylvania by four American musicians but the musical roots of Pharaoh come from European power metal acts.[1] Featuring Tim Aymar, who is best known for his vocals on Control Denied, Chris Kerns on bass, Matt Johnson on guitar and Chris Black on drums, they released their debut After the Fire in 2003. The band is known for multi-layered instrumentation and well produced albums.[2]

Pharaoh has collaborated with many notable musicians including guitarist Chris Poland (OHM, ex-Megadeth) on The Longest Night album [3] and King Diamond guitarist Mike Wead on the Bury The Light album.[4][5]
