History

1995–1999

October Tide's debut album, Rain Without End, was recorded in 1995 and released on Vic Records in 1997.[2] During this period October Tide maintained a low profile, deciding not to tour or give any interviews.[1]

October Tide's second album, Grey Dawn, was released in 1999 by Avantgarde Music.^{[citation needed]} The band enlisted Mårten Hansen of A Canorous Quintet to replace Renkse on vocals.[3] The album was remastered and re-released by Peaceville Records in 2007.^{[citation needed]} After the release of Grey Dawn, October Tide disbanded.^{[citation needed]}

2009–2011

After leaving Katatonia, Norrman reformed October Tide in early 2009. The new line-up didn't include founding member Jonas Renkse, but instead consisted of Norrman on guitars, Tobias Netzell on vocals, Robin Bergh on drums and Jonas Kjellgren as a session bassist.[1] The band entered the studio to record a new album.[4] October Tide signed to Candlelight Records in March 2010.[4]

In July 2010, October Tide performed live at Hell's Pleasure Metalfest.[5] Johan Jansson replaced Kjellgren on bass for the show.[6]

A Thin Shell was released on 28 September 2010.[7] After the album's release, Pierre Stam joined the band on bass.[7]

2012–present

In March 2012, Netzell and Stam left the band, and were replaced by Alexander Högbom and Mattias Norrman, respectively.[8] October Tide signed with Pulverised Records in April 2012.[9] The band entered Black Lounge Studios in late 2012 to record their new album, Tunnel of No Light.[10] They released the album on 25 March 2013.[11]

In 2015, drummer Robin Bergh was replaced by Jocke Wallgren.[12]
