Crom are a viking metal/Power metal band founded and driven by Crom, himself. Back in 1997, Crom dissolved his band TEARS OF TIME, tojoin German Black Metal band DARK FORTRESS on guitar, only to realise after a while that playing guitar would not completely satisfy him. So,in the winter of that year, he founded his solo project CROM, which has been described as Majestic Melodic Metal.
