Forming
Thulcandra was founded in 2003 by guitarist Steffen Kummerer and Jurgen Zintz. Thulcandra recorded a demo called Perishness Around Us in 2004, but neither were satisfied with its quality and did not release it. Shortly thereafter guitarist Jürgen Zintz committed suicide in 2005. Thus the band then went on hold. Upon moving to another city in late 2008 Steffen Kummerer started listening to their first demo after many years, and decided to restart the band.
The name of the band is taken from a 1989 demo of the Norwegian act Darkthrone, coming from the 1938 science fiction novel Out of the Silent Planet by C. S. Lewis, where Thulcandra is the name for the silent planet, Earth.
