Montany is a melodic power metal band from The Netherlands formed in 1989. The band and its members have gained quite a reputation beyond their national borders as well. The band, consisting of Patrick van Maurik (Reviver, Tragedian), Dirk Hoek (Cronus, Half Om), Stefan Brederode (Reviver, Slowbituary) and Marcel Chaudron (Causes of Puo), plays melodic power metal with an emphasis on catchy songs where well-balanced rhythm and melody is key. Montany’s music is powerful yet melodic and is interspersed with striking riffs created by musicians with a wide spectrum of musical tastes and influences of not only metal, but pop, rock and other music styles as well. Experimenting is at Montany’s core. As such, each song contributes in its own unique manner to the distinctive sound of the band.
