Pax Satana was created in early 2003, with original guitarist Matt Drozdeck, Ryan McKenna, Ed Mango, and Justin Villanueva with another under the name Baphomet, which later became Laid to Rest and finally Pax Satana. Matt left in the summer of 2004 due to his move to Florida but that didnt stop Pax. Justin had been playing 4 string, while Ed growled and Ryan blasted the battery, yet our 5th left due to our short hiatus. We were guitarless but pressed on, seeking a different sound than what we had been playing before. At the end of 2004 with renewed vigor, we invited Danielle for keys, and Rose on guitars. We had risen from the ashes to burst out on the the local Black Metal scene. On April 8th 2005, we had our first show in Staten Island's Dock Street bar and grill. Yet even with our newsound sound there was something missing from the quintet. This was a true lead guitar, which we found in Cory. A few Shows and moons later we recorded our first demo, which reamins untitled. Our album was met with success among the local scene, yet that did not prevent internal conflict. A Short hiatus ensued and Cory sadly left the band, taking a critical piece with him. This would not hinder our motives though, and we would press on to rise once more. Shortly thereafter, our comrade in arms Craig Roth, joined us in the fight as our new lead guitarist. This proves that our black flame shall not be snuffed that easily. We will Return.Pax Satana now has three grim demonic songs, not yet recorded, Wandering Soul, I Die In The Forest, and the self titled, most powerful, and epic song yet, Pax Satana. Pax Satana is still writing new material, and is about at a half way point of a new song. Once the end of August hits, Pax Satana will once agian be hitting the studio and record its first full length album. Our comrade cory has returned to the line up. This has complete the line up and we are preparing to record a new cd. Comrade Cory,Danielle was unable to continue due to different reasons. Pax played there last show on the 26 of may, After the show the band came closed the chapter of the book for pax satana.
