Instrumental Power from the Heart of Silesia –the Band Shaping Their Own Sonic Universe
Formed in late August 2005 in Będzin, southern Poland, the band was the brainchild of bassist and electronic soundscaper Przemek Skrzypiec, previously a member of the Dąbrowa-based band KRUK. From the very beginning, the core lineup included the expressive guitarist Marcin Trela and drummer Sebastian Jezierski, forming a tight instrumental trio whose chemistry defined the band’s early sound.
Though initially an instrumental project, the band’s musical landscape evolved over the years through collaborations with several vocalists, including Jesion Kowal, Andrzej Miśta, Michał Gomułka, Tomasz Nowakowski, Robert Niemiec, and Janusz Rymar.
Known for their intense and immersive live shows, the band has performed dozens of concerts across Poland, sharing the stage with iconic acts like T.Love and Lao Che. They’ve been twice invited to perform at the prestigious Tomasz Beksiński Progressive Rock Festival at the Ethnographic Museum Amphitheater in Toruń (2017 and 2023), earning praise from audiences and critics alike.
Following the release of their debut album, the lineup evolved—Marcin Lipski joined on drums, and Janusz Rymar took on vocal duties. This configuration powered the band through several more years of performances, including a second appearance at the Beksiński Festival in 2023.
In 2024, the band returned to its roots, embracing a fully instrumental trio format. This creative rebirth culminated in the release of their second full-length album, “LAUDANUM”, in May 2025—a record warmly received by fans and reviewers for its atmospheric depth and emotional weight. The new material made its live debut in July 2025 at the Ostrów Rock Festival, where the band shared the stage with major international acts such as Katatonia, SOEN, and MEER.
This is a band that refuses to compromise. Their sound is rich in texture, emotion, and dynamic structure—tailor-made for fans of progrock, progmetal or post-rock, progressive music, and cinematic instrumental journeys.
