Conception was formed in 1989 by Tore Østby (guitars), joined by Roy Khan (vocals), Arve Heimdal (drums) and Ingar Amlien (bass). They are known for melodic and rhythmic music of a unique, powerful, yet dynamic blend, with influences from flamenco, jazz and classical music. After a break from releasing music of over two decades, Conception released their brand new My Dark Symphony EP in November 2018.

Conception have released their first new music in over 20 years. Their new EP, My Dark Symphony, is now available and is streaming below.

Khan was a member of Kamelot from 1997 - 2011. In a 2014 interview with local Norwegian media, Khan revealed that he had burned out after overworking himself for years, and that he decided to quit the band before the tour in 2010 to prioritize his health and family, but in an agreement with Youngblood and the rest of the band, they would not announce his departure in case he recovered and changed his mind.
