About Me

Obsydian were formed in mid 2005 when vocallist Luke teamed up with Jacques (drums) and Rob (guitar). After an unsucessfull spell of looking for a second guitarist and bassist, the band finally found Dave (bass) threw an add on the internet. Since their creation Obsydian have gigged regularly, recorded a dvd, a 4 track demo and are currently writing new and constantly improving and evolving material, with a view to play a lot more gigs and go into the studio again in 2006. Following daves exodus in june 2006, and now with the departure of rob.WE HAVE FINALLY FOUND chris whom have shared all his creative skills in music and writing with us all and its finally payed off!! and now with the circle almost complete, we thought that one of the final steps we have to take is the changing of our name, and so be it BIOLITH!! we are now back on the move,but still looking for a bass player! someone who is dedicated in music and striving for greatness!!
