The band's music is a mix of many musical elements such as prog, melodic and experimental metal, art rock, electronic music sometimes combined even with extreme metal elements. In July 2009 Until Rain signed with Steel Gallery Records for their first label release, the debut concept album, The Reign of Dreams. The album was recorded during the first months of 2009 at Fragile Studios by Vangelis Yalamas in Athens, Greece. Its concept concerns dreams, but its scenario could be adapted to reality as a real and adventurous life story. Until Rain quickly followed up with the EP Pandemic (February of 2011), which consists of 4 new songs and 4 bonus tracks (acoustic versions, radio edits etc), giving a taste of Until Rain's next full length release, blended with 2 tracks from the past, sounding heavier than the first album and more mature. The band toured around Greece promoting those 2 releases throughout 2011 and 2012. Later they started the recordings of their last full-length album Anthem To Creation, recorded at Fascination Street Studios by Jens Bogren in Orebro, Sweden. The album has been released by Escape Music at 23rd August 2013. Only from the first months of its release it received praising reviews from around the world and also reached the top on many lists (Best of 2013 etc.) The band has toured around Europe to promote this album along with Andromeda and performed in 15 European Cities this November & December of 2013 (London, Paris, Barcelona, Vienna & more). They have also shared the stage with many artists over the years - to name a few: Psychotic Waltz, Jeff Martin (The Tea Party), Rotting Christ & Firewind. The band will now perform in some festivals and selected cities throughout 2014 and also will record a new album by the end of this year.
