We started playing music together in 1999. At this time, it was called Heresy, a project of guitarist Nicolas Pélissier and keyboarder Philippe Tezza. Nico had a demo and was looking for a band to play his songs. Months later, they met Kevin Kazek, singer of Seyminhol, and Max Lehmann. But they couldn't find a bass player, so they started to rehearse without bass!
In the summer of 1999, we finally recorded our first demo called "Searching for Signs". Unfortunately, the studio session ended in failure because of the incompetence of the sound engineer. After that came a hard time for the band with a one year long break.
In 2000, the band was still looking for a bass player. Finally Philippe met a bassplayer at the MAI (Music Academy International). This was a new beginning for the band that restarted to rehearse in order to record the single "Wishmaker", which was supposed to appear on a special "Dream Theater fan club CD". Unfortunately the fan club couldn't release the CD... This new setback put an end to Heresy. Nicolas and Kevin actually wanted a more symphonic oriented music, whereas Max, Phil prefered a more progressive oriented style, without musical boundaries.
In the end of 2001, Ghislain Wielfaert joined the band. The new songs became more progressive and heavier, with a lot of melodic elements. Last but not least Pat Marinacci and his powerful voice completed the band in 2002, now called Chrysalis. In 2003 they entered the famous Roko Soundstudio in Germany to record the first EP called Breaking Illusions.In 2006 the band recorded a new album at the dugout studio in Sweden with Daniel Bergstrand. So enyoy the new stuff and don't hesitate to contact us: We're always looking for new musicians, artists, labels!! Thanks for your support!!!
