Bio
Ellipsis: Some might say: it’s weird music for schizos, others: original and fascinating!
Ellipsis was born in 1999 with "Build The Nation".
Without any compromise, these talented musicians have always managed to improve and expend with their musicianship, to create a unique sound of their
own.
Their debut concept-album, Comastory, was released in 2003… Thanks to the success of this release, the band was able to support Sweden famous act, Opeth, for the french dates of their European Tour. The response from audience and press was overwhelming.
This allowed the band to make a stir on the metal scene and Ellipsis
started to make a name of themselves not only in their area and
homeland but also worldwide.
In 2005, "From Beyond Thematics" was recorded with famous norwegian producer Terje Refsnes ( Tristania,
Theatre Of Tragedy, Nightmare, Morgul, Sirenia… ), on the helm.
Musically, this new opus is very powerful, unique, « psychotic » and even more atmospheric, featuring sophisticated arrangements. From Beyond Thematics is yet a new concept album dealing lyrically with the threshold and the riddles of their mysterious world.
With ten tracks each of them being very original, Ellipsis has managed to
bewitch our senses and to explore the realms of the forbidden. Once
again, the international press acclaimed the album and propelled it to
a recognition highly deserved. This being a real springboard for the
live experience, and the band was able to hit the roads. Since the
release of From Beyond Thematics, Ellipsis has scheduled several
concerts opening for acts such as Nightmare, After Forever ,Manigance,
without forgetting a memorable show at the Rotonde Festival (05/05).
Since, the band also played in support of norvegians Arcturus for their first french tour.
Then it was time for Ellispis to release a new album, this one being
entitled Imperial Tzadik : an offering that is even more powerful and «psychotic » to be released in November 2006. With the signing to a new
label, Thundering Records and with new goals to achieve.
And once again, the international press acclaimed the album and propelled it to a recognition highly deserved.
2009 :
With The Grace Decapitated, expect the unexpected through a unique
musical universe! Welcome to crazyness and emotions, to power and
originality! The band has now improved to a new dimension that will
invade your soul… The end complete is near… Be prepared!
