The UK progressive metal band Threshold was formed in 1988. One of
the founders Karl Groom is perhaps the leading man in this band.
He's also known from such bands as Landmarq, Pendragon and
Shadowland. The band has gone through several line-up changes to
find the perfect band. It would be too intricate to describe the
line-up changes here, so it's included in the discography.s

In 1993 their classic debut studio album saw the light of day. It
was called "Wounded Land" and was released on the GEP label. And
from then on they have gained a lot of good reviews from all
around the world. Their follow up "Psychedelicatessen" (1994)
reached 5000 in advance sales the first week. Impressive for being
a progressive metal band. Since then they have made "Livedelica"
(1995), "Extinct Instinct" (1997) and their best album up to date:
"Clone" (1998). This new release is a concept album, which
re-insured their place as one of the premier bands in this genre.
