Conception
After finishing his opera studies, Khan joined the Norwegian progressive metal band Conception, after their previous lead singer quit in 1991. Khan was selected after several potential singers auditioned. The band released several albums over the coming years, before disbanding in 1998. Khan had then left the band the year before to pursue a career with Kamelot. In 2005, Khan reunited with his previous band and played at the 2005 ProgPower USA VI festival on Friday 16 September and Norwegian Scream Magazine's 15 Years & 100 Issues Festival on Saturday 1 October. Khan, guitarist Tore Østby (also known from the band ARK) and the rest of Conception reunited; at the time it was clarified Khan would continue to support Kamelot.
