Midryasi

Midryasi were born in winter 2002 by the twisted minds of Guanera, Convulsion and Sapappah with the aim to create a heavy sound inspired by Doom and Psychedelic Rock, still having in improvised material the main source of inspiration.

The name Midryasi is a scientific term that refers to the pupil spreading in hallucination, emotional or death state to reflect the heavy, dark and psychedelic soul of the band.

Black Sabbath, Hawkwind, Celtic Frost, Pentagram. Progressive Rock? Midryasi's most amazing feature is the skill to sound like all of these bands and none of them at the same time and to mix doomy, psychedelic and extreme influences without any fall of coherence nor personality.

The band's debut demo was enthusiastically greeted by underground and major press, then in 2005 Iron Tyrant Records came to release and remaster it with a professional booklet.

The artwork was conceived by the band itself, as a further proof of the originality and creativity of this power trio.

At the beginning of 2007 Guanera left the band which was quickly joined by Paul, who brought a heavier and more vintage sound.

During the following years, the band got many great reviews and made several gigs in Italy and abroad; among them all the editions of the Stoned Hand of Doom festival in Rome and the European tour with the road mates Doomraiser.

In 2008 the song "Another Hell Within" was recorded and released on a split 7" with Doomraiser. In the same year the band appears with the track "Hissybilum" on the "Heavy Psych Italian Sounds" compilation, featuring all the best of the bustling Italian Psych, Doom and Stoner scene.

Six new songs have been crafted for the upcoming "Corridors" album, scheduled to be released in December 2009: the first proper full lenght album is a deep sight on Midryasi's realm of uncontaminated madness.The band, the vision. Midryasi sound like Midryasi.for every Black Sabbath Heavy Rock fanatic!!
