Apparition

This site represents Apparition between 2004 and 2006, Apparition's roots go back to 1997 when as Asphyxiator wrote and recorded the song The Pain Lives On. This song was a departure from Asphyxiators usual death metal style. Dave, the writer of the song and bass guitarist of Asphyxiator, wanted to start a melodic rock band. However this was not possible as singer Rebecca had moved away from the West Midlands area and the rest of the band just wanted to keep The Pain Lives On as a one off experimental track. Asphyxiator later split in 1998.Then on New Years Eve 2003, whilst checking out a notice board in his local music store, Dave saw an advert put up by Jen, a local girl offering her vocal talents and keyboard/piano skills. Dave contacted her and after meeting they both knew that something special had been formed.After forming a few ideas and building the basis of a few songs Paul, drummer from past band Asphyxiator, agreed to join Apparition. After then building on the ideas developed by Dave and Jen, Apparition sought after a new vocalist and guitarist. After much time searching they welcomed Annabelle and Rich to join the band.Apparition signed to casket/copro records in January 2006 and their album called "Drowned in questions" was released in April 2006 The album features 12 songs, 4 of these (Frozen Roses, Forever Guilty and Running Away, Defenders of your faith).Jen and Annabelle left in 2006 and were replaced by Fiona Creaby and Ian Bentley, The new Apparition line up can found by clicking the banner above,
