THE CHRISTMAS PREVIEW OF "LUCIFER'S KISS":
OFFICIAL "FIRE IN THE SKY"
Psychosis was founded by Michael Griffey II and Rev. Roach at the turn of the millennium.
Heavily influenced by King Diamond, Iron Maiden, Frank Zappa and Jim Morrison, Griffey's vocal style is reminiscent of early 80's metal styles, and then twisted to the point of insanity. His lyrics then take you into the mind of a man who is in an emotional hell the likes of which have never been fully explored.
Psychosis is the embodiment of hallucinogenic experimentation, which is complemented by the air of darkness that a Psychosis event entails. Jeff Hill & Eli Flynn brought to fruition many of Griffey's complex ideas, most of which were nearly as old as Griffey himself... a blend of Doom, Thrash & Horror with a taste of complex leads, and an original vocal presence is the crux of what Psychosis is and will be in the future.
Yet, the future is always uncertain...a few years have passed since the last Psychosis release...culminating in the 2006 release of "Books of Blood", and the upcoming new project, "The Heart of The Devil", which will feature talented guest musicians...melding the old-school with pure rage and insanity and taking experimentation to new heights. It seems to take forever, but somehow it all seems worth it.
Will you be ready when the delirium and hallucinations begin? Will you know what to do when the Gods and Goddesses descend from the heavens and bring you paradise in the form of a tasteless colored piece of gel and the demons decide to come out and play for awhile?
