I sent all required info for the band as well as both of their albums
to M@X via email, as well as a sample MP3 (that's proggy as hell, as
their entire discography is), as outlined in the guide, over a month
ago...
* Artist/band biography It all goes back in 1997 when 14year old Alex Katsiyannis decided to form a hard rock band along with some school-mates. The name of the band was Distant Dreamland. The songs were more in the vein of Deep Purple and Uriah Heep. After a year of rehearsals and stuff the band changed their music style. Distant Dreamland played a mix of European and american power metal. People left the band and others joined. The band was renamed into Dead Man's Tale. Dead Man's Tale released the self-titled demo cd receiving really good reviews. At that time Alex wrote the lyrics along with the music and played the guitar and Domenik (Dark Vision, Lost Souls) performed the vocals. The frendship between Alex and Domenik kept them together even after the end of Dead Man's Tale. On March of 2003 WASTEFALL were born by Alex and Domenik. Later on George Kanavaris and Ilias Kalivas joined the band. In only three months Wastefall signed with Sleaszy Rider and released their debut album "Fallen Stars and Rising Scars". Wastefall received very good feedback: (Greek Metal Hammer 8,5/10, Rock-on 7/10, Pathfinder 9/10). And the story goes on... * Country Greece * Prog genre Progressive Metal * Artist picture http://www.wastefall.com * Official Website http://www.wastefall.com/ * COVER 200px x 200px http://aaron.theaftershow.com * TITLE, Release year, label(s) of release <>FALLEN STARS AND RISING SCARS, 2003, Sleaszy Rider Records * X. tracks (time) + total time 01) KILLING OF WOLVES 02) LIKE FATHER LIKE NONE 03) FOR WHAT IS TO BE LOST 04) FALL OF EVA 05) ANNABEL LEE -Edgar Alan Poe- 06) CONFESSION 07) SUBROUTINE 08) APRIL'S RUIN 09) THAT WAS ALL ABOUT 10) ONE WITH THE FALL (couldn't get the times...) * line up format - Musicians / instruments Domenik Papaemmanouil / lead vocals, guitars Alex Katsiyannis / guitars, vocals Christos Kyrkilis / keyboards Matthew Dakoutros / violin Nick Valentzis / bass guitar Kostis Papaleksopoulos / drums * COVER 200px x 200px http://aaron.theaftershow.com * TITLE, Release year, label(s) of release SOUL RAIN 21, 2004, Sleaszy Rider Records * X. tracks (time) + total time 01) SOULRAIN 02) STUNNED TO THE WORLD 03) EMPTY HAVEN 04) LULLABY FOR THE GODS 05) LESSER 06) LIVE WITH IT 07) SUMMERLONGING ANGELS 08) SELF EXTINCTION PROJECT 09) RIOT OF OBLIVION 10) 21 bonus tracks: 11) FOUNTAINS OF FIRE 12) NUMB LAKE (couldn't get the times...) * line up format - Musicians / instruments Domenik Papaemmanouil / lead vocals, guitars Alex Katsiyannis / guitars, vocals Christos Kyrkilis / keyboards Matthew Dakoutros / violin Nick Valentzis / bass guitar Kostis Papaleksopoulos / drums |

True. I can vouch for this man, Wastefall is an excellent band. They're
basically a heavier Pain of Salvation, also sound a bit like Threshold
at times. It's real good stuff.

Sounded like a less inspired Pain of Salvation to me, although I'd still put them on the site. Maybe it's because I don't like Threshold |

Oh!! I am impressed! How do you people know about them? They are FANTASTIC! I have seen them 2 times live and were awsome! (one of the times they were the support band to Pain of Salvation). I thought that a few people in Greece knew them! How did you find out about them?

I've been a fan for a couple months now... one of my friends suggested I listen to Empty Haven, and I fell in love.

I dont think you will find a way to order their albums... Not even in Greece you can find easily their records. You can only find soulrain 21, Soulrain 21 is a concept album based on an accident happened in 2003 in Greece. There was a bus with 30 or 40 students and the bus fall in a river and 21 students were killed... it was a very sad day for all greeks... Edited by kas_ofi |

If I tried to start a list it'd end up too long to even try . I'm not knocking PoS but there's at least 50,100 bands I love as much. |

It's all taste.
I mean really, it's not like my opinion's unbiased. I'm currently sporting a Daniel Gildenlow avatar for heaven's sake! |
