Here goes!!
Lars Eric Si:
- Started out in the norwegian hard rock band Jack In The Box which I've heard was played on MTV in the early 90's. Not a metal band, but more hard rock.
- From there went on to sing in Sensa Anima for a while, the norwegian industrial metal band with x-members from Old Man's Child and Tulus.
- Also he's been briefly a member of Khold as a bassist, but is not a member here anymore either.
- According to recent interviews Winds is now his main band, but he is rumored to have other side project in the planning with members from Carpathian Forest and Behemoth.
Andy Winter:
- Not much is known about him, but I think he has more of a classical background than metal.
- He hasn't been in any metal bands before to my knowledge, and no other bands that I've ever heard of either.
Carl August Tidemann:
- Went to the guitar school GIT in Hollywood where he was taught my some really great guitar legends.
- He played on the first Arcturus album after replacing Samoth!! (yes, I was shocked too), who couldn't do it because he was in jail.
- Before Mayhem even started, Hellhammer and Carl played together in Carl's band Tritonus, which have been around for a long time but never released anything.
Hope this helps!! Also FYI I found most of this info on
www.winds.nu by reading through all the interviews.
