Emergency Gate is a Modern Melodic-Death/Metalcore Band from Munich.

The band was founded in 1996, but the only member remaining from the original line-up is bass-player and manager Mario Lochert.
As a name the band had picked "Emergency Gate" because of the free advertisment by emergency gate signs everywhere.

... Their debut album "Nightly Ray" (2006, TNC/Universal) differs a lot from the the following records, which was mostly caused by songwriter, singer and guitar player Fabian Kießling, who left the band in 2008.

On January 23rd 2009 the band released the album "Rewake" (Silverwolf Productions) featuring their new singer Matthias Kupka. Also starting on that day the "Chaos over Europe 2009" tour took place, at which Emergency Gate played together with Kreator, Caliban and Eluveite for two months.

After the summer festivals the band went right back to the studio to record the album "The Nemesis Construct", which was released on April 30th 2010 through Twilight Records)
In the end of 2011 the band started to write songs for their upcoming album. During a break of the songwriting process in the Dreamsound Studios in Munich, Vlad suddently played an old, which never was released on a record. Mario jumped up and said something like: “You still remember this song? It was really great live and the people liked it a lot. We are here in the studio, why don’t we record an additional EP as a Christmas present for all our fans. Let’s rearrange the 6 best songs, that were never recorded. Are you ready for something crazy?” After a short discussion about the idea, all agreed – short talk during the night with the label and the studio, and the band started recording their EP with 6 powerful tracks from the past a few hours later. This EP “Remembrance – The Early Days” was released on the 9th December 2011 through Twilight Zone Records. After the songwriting of the 5th studio album was finished in early summer of 2012. After the Metalfest Tour and some additional Festivals, the band started with the recordings. In July they signed a new worldwide deal with the record company ZYX Music. The new record "You" was released in the begging of 2013.
