Disolvo Animus started as a melodic/symphonic black metal band in 2006. Formed by Animus (vocals, guitars) in Athens, Greece, the band within the same year completed and released its first work titled “Disolvo Animus” (Latin for “Decaying soul/spirit”). Animus then proceeded to find the proper individuals to complete the band’s line-up, in order to pursue live shows and reinforce the band’s presence. In 2007, the band’s second demo, titled “Death’s Ruthless Eyes”, is released and at that time the band hits the stage for the first time.

In 2008, Disolvo Animus plays various live shows around Greece and begin to work on new material.

In 2009, after numerous line-up changes and hardships Disolvo Animus unleashes its most powerful work so far, the “Aleatoric Morte” EP. The recordings, mixing and mastering took place in Sound Symmetry Studios, with Bob Katsionis in charge of the mixing board, while the artwork is designed by Ra.Design.

Agnosia was formed in 2003 by Dionysis Sourelis (Guitars) and Manos Xanthakis (Guitars - Vocals), originating from Athens / Greece (GR), the band plays progressive metal/rock music with varied influences from classic/progressive rock to the contemporary metal sounds. In the same year the self-financed demo cd “The Inner Confict” was recorded, mixed and mastered at Fragile Studios (Athens, Greece) by Vangelis Yalamas and it was finally released during 2004. The line-up of that release was completed by Chris Kyrkilis on keyboards (Wastefall), Kostas Exarchakos on drums and Vangelis Yalamas on bass (session). That first release was supported by various live gigs in Athens.

Enthusiastic and optimistic words for ‘The Inner Conflict’ were expressed by respected metal magazines and fanzines such as Metal Hammer Greece (8/10), Metalzone Magazine Greece (8.5/10) Metaleagle.com (7/10), The Metal Observer (7.5/10), Shapelesszine (8/10), Metalcoven.de (84%), Barikada.com (8/10), Powermetal.de etc. 2005-2006, were two crucial years for the band. Agnosia parted ways with Kostas (drums), Chris was replaced by Pantelis Kyramargios (keyboards) and Julio Koutsogeorgiou (bass) joined the band, creating a stable core line-up for Agnosia. At the beginning of 2007 the band entered the studio to record its first album that is called ‘Trace Decay’ based on a lyrical concept story. The drums on this album were arranged and performed by Akis Gavalas (Sound of Silence) who was working with Agnosia as a session drummer. However, the band’s line-up has been recently completed with the addition of Chris Mastoras (vocals) and Konstantinos Galimis a talented and experienced drummer.

The band’s first full length album is ready! It is based on a concept lyrical story. ‘Trace Decay’ contains 11 songs of contemporary progressive metal plus 1 bonus track a re-recorded version of ‘Broken Memories’ from ‘The Inner Conflict’. The total running time is 61 minutes!
