Arcane was an Australian progressive metal band formed in Brisbane in 2004. The lineup featured Jim Grey on vocals, Michael Gagen on guitar, Matthew Martin on keyboards, Brendon Blanchard on bass, and Stephen Walsh on drums. Their music blended atmospheric elements with emotionally charged compositions, drawing comparisons to bands like Redemption and Dream Theater. They released three albums: 'Ashes' (2007), 'Chronicles of the Waking Dream' (2009), and the double album 'Known/Learned' (2015). The latter was funded through a successful crowdfunding campaign, highlighting their dedicated fanbase. Arcane disbanded in 2015, leaving a lasting impact on the progressive metal scene.
