The major progressive Portuguese progressive act is on studio preparing the 3rd album.
Founded in the early 90’s, their 1st place at a bands contest got them money to record a demo which lead to a deal with Swiss label Galileo Records.
The debut album ‘Fiction Edge’ was released worldwide on the progressive underground circuit in June 2000 having collected great reviews and some radio airplay. The highest point was to perform on the GAR 2001 Festival with Pain of Salvation and Flower Kings.
After some member departures and arrivals the band released their second album called ‘Snooze’, and this one gave them excellent reviews and more fans over the world. The band performed many times live though the highest moment was to open for Fish and his Return to Childhood concerts in Portugal.
After this the band change singer, did some interesting concerts for Fish again in 2007 and went into the studio to finish the 3rd album yet untitled.
