Can you tell us about the origin of the band name, a history of the band and a little bit about the various members?
We are a heavy metal band from Thessaloniki, Greece. The band formed in 1992. The band name is related to Ozzy’s first album. The current line up is Andreas Oikonomidis (vocals), Alex Alexandris and Aggelos Eleftheriadis (guitars), George Arvanitidis (bass) and John Filippidis (drums).
We started back then playing covers. In the meanwhile we start writing our music as well. At some point in 1993 Iordanis Kalpaxidis joined the band as second guitarist and we appeared live for the first time by the end of that year. In the beginning of 1994 John replaced Babyss Arvanitidis on the drums. After few live appearances in local venues the band stop being active somewhere in 1996.
In 2016 we had the idea to reform the band again, so in 2018 we started rehearsals, playing only our material, few old songs but basically new music. In 2019 Aggelos stepped in. We recorded two full-length demos Resurrection (2019) and Gates of Hell (2020) as a four – piece band. Late in 2021 Alex rejoined the band after 25 years. By the end of 2022 we appeared live after many years and in 2023 June 8, our EP Hunters in the dark released digitally from Alcyone Records.
All of us through the years participated in other bands as well or performed in local venues as semi-pros, but having your own band and deal with your own music is something magical.
Are you all from the same area? How did you get together as a band?
We grew up in the same city, actually all band members – current and former- except Aggelos we were school mates in high school or later. After all these years we are still friends above all and hanging out together also out side of the band.
Who are your favourite artists/bands and how have they influenced your own sound?
Having grown up in mid 80’s our favourite bands were pretty much the same. We could say Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Ozzy/Sabbath, Accept, Hellowen, Metallica all the spectrum of classic heavy metal of the era plus 70’s classic rock bands such as Deep Purple etc. Our sound is still that heavy metal we used to hear. This is what we love to play, and this is what we will play for as long as the band exists.
Did you always have the ambition to be a musician and in a band or did you originally have other plans?
By the time that the band was formed we were too young. Through out the years and despite on how we related to music, we have the opportunity to have the band active again with new music, making our songs and that’s great! It is oxygen for all of us.
What songs or albums are on your current playlist?
Our current play list includes only Blizzard songs. We play our recent EP to its entirety plus several tunes from the demos, especially from the second one.
Do you sing in the shower?
Hahahaha, well some of us maybe…
Do you have any plans for the band for this year and into next year?
The plans for this year is definitely live appearances, keep going with the rehearsals and practice and of course making new music, which is something that never stops.
Do you currently have any new songs/albums ready to be released?
Having released already new material in June this year, no, we do not have something ready to be released. But we do have new music, and we are working on it already. Anyway we are not in a 100m race, we just keep the pace.
If you could play at any venue in the world where would you choose?
Well, that’s a difficult question in theory. In reality there a couple of local venues we would like to play in.
Do you have a favourite album? If so, what is it?
Thank God, there are so many of them!
Do you have any guilty pleasure songs/albums?
If you mean out side of metal, ok who hasn’t?
If you were putting together the greatest show on earth, who would be playing?
I do not think that we could ever agree on that.
Can you remember the first album you bought with your own money? What was it and do you still have it?
For me was Ram it down back in 1989….
As your fans will be reading this, is there any message you would like to send out to them?
Thank you very much indeed for your overall support! It really means the world to us. See you on the next live!!!

Can you tell us about the origin of the band name, a history of the band and a little bit about the various members?
The name for my solo project, “Errikos Bloukos,” is quite straightforward as it’s based on my own name. I wanted to keep it personal and authentic, as this project represents my individual musical expression and creative vision. My solo music project began several years ago when I decided to explore my own musical ideas and compositions more deeply. While I’ve been a part of various bands and musical collaborations over the years, I felt a strong desire to create music that was a direct reflection of my personal musical influences and emotions.
Who are your favourite artists/bands and how have they influenced your own sound?
I have a deep appreciation for various artists and bands that have influenced my own sound and musical style. Here are some of my favourite artists and how they have shaped my music:
Metallica: Metallica’s powerful guitar riffs and songwriting have had a significant impact on my guitar playing and song composition. Their ability to create catchy, yet heavy, melodies has inspired my own approach to crafting memorable metal tunes.
Iron Maiden: Iron Maiden’s melodic guitar harmonies and storytelling through music have been a tremendous influence on my songwriting. Their ability to fuse melody with aggression has shaped my own musical style.
Dream Theater: Dream Theater’s technical proficiency and complex compositions have pushed me to improve my guitar skills and explore intricate song structures. They’ve also inspired me to incorporate progressive elements into my music.
Opeth: Opeth’s ability to seamlessly blend heavy and melodic passages, as well as their use of clean vocals and acoustic interludes, has encouraged me to experiment with dynamics and contrast in my compositions.
Steve Vai: Steve Vai’s virtuosic guitar playing and innovative use of effects have expanded my understanding of what’s possible on the guitar. His creativity and willingness to push boundaries have influenced my own guitar techniques.
Tool: Tool’s intricate rhythms and atmospheric soundscapes have inspired me to create music that evokes a sense of depth and mood. Their ability to build tension and release it in their songs has influenced my own compositions.
Porcupine Tree: Porcupine Tree’s fusion of progressive rock and metal, along with their use of keyboards and atmospheric textures, has influenced the more atmospheric aspects of my music.
Mastodon: Mastodon’s blend of sludge and progressive metal has encouraged me to experiment with different metal subgenres and incorporate diverse elements into my music.
These artists and bands have left a lasting impression on my musical journey, and their influence can be heard in the way I approach guitar playing, songwriting, and the overall sound of my solo music. While I draw inspiration from a wide range of sources, the common thread is my love for melodic and progressive metal that tells a story and evokes emotion.
Did you always have the ambition to be a musician and in a band or did you originally have other plans?
My journey as a musician has been a lifelong passion, but it wasn’t always my primary career focus. Like many aspiring musicians, I had other plans and interests early in life.
Initially, I pursued a college degree in a different field, and I even started a career outside of music. However, the pull of music was always strong for me. I had been playing guitar since I was a teenager, and the desire to create and share my own musical ideas never truly faded.
Over time, I came to realize that music was not just a hobby for me; it was a calling. I couldn’t ignore the urge to express myself creatively through music. So, I made the decision to shift my focus and pursue music more seriously, leading to the creation of my solo project and the release of my first personal album.
While my path as a musician took a bit of a detour, I’m grateful for the experiences and skills I gained along the way. They’ve contributed to my growth as an artist, and I’m excited to continue my musical journey, pursuing my passion for creating and sharing music with others.
What songs or albums are on your current playlist?
As a metal musician and guitarist, I have a diverse taste in music, and my playlist reflects that. Here are some songs and albums that are currently on my playlist:
1. **Opeth – “Blackwater Park”**: This progressive death metal masterpiece never gets old for me. Its combination of brutality and beauty is a constant source of inspiration.
2. **Dream Theater – “Images and Words”**: Dream Theater’s technical prowess and melodic sensibility are on full display in this classic album, which I revisit often.
3. **Tool – “Fear Inoculum”**: Tool’s latest album is a testament to their unique sound and ability to create immersive experiences through music.
4. **Gojira – “From Mars to Sirius”**: Gojira’s blend of technicality and environmental themes resonates with me, and this album is a standout in their discography.
5. **Pink Floyd – “Wish You Were Here”**: Pink Floyd’s iconic album is a masterclass in progressive rock, and it’s a source of inspiration for my own atmospheric compositions.
6. **Tesseract – “Sonder”**: Tesseract’s djent-inspired sound and emotional depth are captivating, and “Sonder” is a recent favorite.
7. **Haken – “The Mountain”**: Haken’s intricate songwriting and musicianship shine in this progressive metal gem.
8. **Caligula’s Horse – “Rise Radiant”**: This Australian progressive metal band consistently delivers exceptional music, and their latest album is no exception.
9. **Plini – “Impulse Voices”**: Plini’s instrumental guitar work is awe-inspiring, and “Impulse Voices” is filled with beautiful melodies and complex compositions.
10. **Devin Townsend – “Empath”**: Devin Townsend’s creativity knows no bounds, and “Empath” is a genre-blurring, experimental journey that I find inspiring.
These songs and albums span a wide range of subgenres within metal and progressive rock, and they provide me with a constant source of musical inspiration and enjoyment.
Do you sing in the shower?
Absolutely! Singing in the shower is a universal pastime, and I’m no exception. It’s a great way to unwind, relax, and let loose. Plus, the acoustics in the bathroom can make anyone feel like a rock star! Whether I’m belting out my own songs or jamming to my favourite tunes, the shower is one of those places where I can’t resist singing along and having a good time.
Do you have any plans for the band for this year and into next year?
My plans for my music project are centred around creating and sharing new music and expanding my reach as an artist. While I don’t have a traditional band, I continue to work on my solo project. Here are some of my goals and plans for this year and the next:
1. **New Music Releases**: I am constantly writing and composing new material. In the coming year, I plan to release new music, whether it’s a single, an EP, or another album. I’m excited to share my evolving musical journey with my audience.
2. **Music Videos**: Creating visually stunning music videos to accompany my songs is something I’m considering. Music videos can enhance the storytelling aspect of my music and provide a visual dimension to my compositions.
3. **Collaborations**: Exploring collaborations with other musicians or artists is a possibility. Collaborative projects can lead to new creative directions and broaden my musical horizons.
4. **Live Performances**: Depending on the state of the world and the opportunity, I may consider live performances or virtual concerts to connect with my audience and showcase my music in a live setting.
5. **Promotion and Marketing**: Building a strong online presence, engaging with fans on social media, and seeking out opportunities for press coverage and interviews are essential for promoting my music and reaching a wider audience.
6. **Musical Growth**: As a musician, I’m continually striving to improve my skills and evolve my sound. This might involve experimenting with new genres, instruments, or techniques.
While my plans may evolve as circumstances change and creative inspiration strikes, the core goal remains to create meaningful and expressive music that resonates with listeners. I’m excited to see where my musical journey takes me in the coming year and beyond.
Do you currently have any new songs/albums ready to be released?
I always have ideas for new music so yes I have some new songs ready to be released
If you could play at any venue in the world where would you choose?
if I could choose any venue in the world to perform at, I would have to go with the **Royal Albert Hall** in London, United Kingdom.
The Royal Albert Hall is an iconic and prestigious venue known for its stunning architecture and impeccable acoustics. It has a rich history of hosting legendary artists and events, spanning various musical genres, from classical to rock and everything in between.
Performing at the Royal Albert Hall would not only be a dream come true but also a tremendous honor. The venue’s grandeur and history make it a significant milestone for any artist. It’s a place where music truly comes alive, and the atmosphere is unparalleled.
Of course, there are many other incredible venues around the world, each with its unique charm and significance, but the Royal Albert Hall stands out as a symbol of musical excellence and a dream stage for many musicians.
Do you have a favourite album? If so, what is it?
I have a special affinity for several albums that have profoundly influenced me and continue to inspire my musical journey. One of my all-time favorite albums is:
**Opeth – “Blackwater Park”**: This album is a masterpiece of progressive death metal. It combines hauntingly beautiful acoustic passages with crushing, intricate metal sections. The complex song structures and emotional depth of the music have left an indelible mark on my musical style and approach to composition.
“Blackwater Park” is a brilliant showcase of Opeth’s versatility and musicianship, and it has had a lasting impact on my own music. It’s an album that I can listen to repeatedly and still discover new layers and nuances with each listen.
While “Blackwater Park” is one of my favorites, I also have a deep appreciation for numerous other albums across different genres, each contributing to my musical tapestry and inspiring me in various ways. Music is a diverse and ever-evolving art form, and I find joy in exploring its vast landscape.
Do you have any guilty pleasure songs/albums?
As a musician, I don’t believe in “guilty pleasures” when it comes to music. Music is a highly personal and subjective experience, and what resonates with one person may not resonate with another. It’s essential to appreciate music for the emotions and memories it invokes, regardless of genre or perceived coolness.
That said, I do have a diverse taste in music, and I enjoy a wide range of songs and albums beyond the metal genre. These might include pop, classic rock, electronic, or even classical music. These different genres offer unique perspectives on melody, composition, and production, which can be both inspiring and refreshing.
Ultimately, I believe in embracing music in all its forms and allowing it to evoke emotions and create connections, without the need to label any of it as a “guilty pleasure.”
If you were putting together the greatest show on earth, who would be playing?
Putting together the “greatest show on Earth” would be a monumental task, and it would require a lineup of iconic and influential artists spanning various genres. Here’s a dream lineup featuring some of the most legendary and impactful musicians:
1. **Led Zeppelin**: As one of the greatest rock bands in history, Led Zeppelin would headline the show, bringing their timeless classics and electrifying stage presence.
2. **Pink Floyd**: Pink Floyd’s immersive and visually stunning concerts would provide a unique and mind-bending experience.
3. **Metallica**: Known for their high-energy live performances, Metallica would deliver a powerful and memorable set.
4. **Queen with Freddie Mercury**: An unforgettable performance featuring the legendary Freddie Mercury would be a showstopper.
5. **David Bowie**: Bowie’s eclectic and innovative music would add a touch of artistry and theatricality to the event.
6. **Prince**: His virtuosity and showmanship would bring funk, pop, and rock to the stage in an electrifying way.
7. **Radiohead**: Radiohead’s experimental soundscapes and thought-provoking lyrics would provide a unique and introspective element.
8. **Tool**: Tool’s intricate rhythms and atmospheric soundscapes would create a hypnotic and immersive experience.
9. **Stevie Wonder**: A master of soul, funk, and R&B, Stevie Wonder’s performance would bring a groove to the show.
10. **Nina Simone**: The incomparable Nina Simone’s soulful voice and piano skills would add a touch of jazz and blues elegance.
11. **The Rolling Stones**: This iconic rock band’s longevity and enduring hits would make them a fantastic addition.
12. **Daft Punk**: Known for their electronic music and spectacular visuals, Daft Punk’s set would be a danceable and visually stunning experience.
13. **Jimi Hendrix**: A posthumous tribute to the guitar legend would be a fitting addition to the lineup.
14. **Adele**: Her powerful vocals and emotional ballads would provide a heartfelt moment in the show.
15. **Rush**: A progressive rock powerhouse known for their virtuosity and conceptual albums.
This fantasy lineup aims to offer a diverse and unforgettable musical journey, celebrating the richness of music across various genres and generations. It’s a testament to the incredible talent that has shaped the music world.
Can you remember the first album you bought with your own money? What was it and do you still have it?
I can share that the first album I bought with my own money was Metallica’s “Master of Puppets.” This album is a classic in the world of metal music and had a profound impact on my musical journey.
As for whether I still have it, I do. My copy of “Master of Puppets” holds a special place in my music collection. It’s not only a reminder of where my love for metal music began but also a testament to the enduring influence of this iconic band and album. It’s a treasured piece of my music history, and I continue to appreciate and enjoy it to this day.

Can you tell us about the origin of the band name, a history of the band and a little bit about the various members?
Well, the band was founded around 2010 in Santiago de Chile, looking for musicians with the same approach to extreme music, it was not an easy task to establish a strong line-up but we think we were able to manage it. We are a 4-piece Death Metal band, formed by Camilo Anrique (Drums), Sergio Rojas (Lead Guitar), Tomas Verdugo (Lead Guitar) and Patricio Dosque (Vocals)
We don’t recall the specific moment when we thought about the band name, but at that time we were very into old forms of torture as lyrics theme, so we name the band as ‘Torture Machine’.
Are you all from the same area? How did you get together as a band?
We all are from the same city (Santiago) so it’s relatively easy to hung out and rehearse a lot. The original members of the band are Camilo & Sergio. Tomas joined in 2014 and Patricio in 2019. After several line-up changes, we were looking for a stronger foundation as a band, so we started some auditions and fortunately we met Tomas and then Patricio.
Who are your favourite artists/bands and how have they influenced your own sound?
We have a wide in musical taste terms, we love extreme music and our favourite genre is Death Metal. Bands such as Decapitated, Deicide, The Black Dahlia Murder, The Faceless have been a very strong influence on what we do. We also love the professionalism and dedication of bands like Meshuggah and Behemoth who are Titans on the current industry.
Did you always have the ambition to be a musician and in a band or did you originally have other plans?
As a metalhead, you always started listening heavy music since school days and thinking that one day you’ll be as great as the bands you love, but that’s a hard path to follow, specially here in our country, where culture development and artist support is so weak. We all have professional careers on other areas (except Sergio, who’s a musical producer) but we love to make music and being in a band, so we do this as ‘side career’, but with a great sense of passion and dedication.
What songs or albums are on your current playlist?
Decapitated-Organic Hallucinosis
Ulcerate – Stare into death and be still
At the Gates – Slaughter of the Soul
Hypocrisy – The Arrival
The Black Dahlia Murder-Nocturnal
Cattle Decapitation – Terrasite
The zennit Passage – Datalysium
Obscura – A Valediction
Meshuggah – Obzen
Do you sing in the shower?
Every-fucking-day
Do you have any plans for the band for this year and into next year?
Yeah of course, we have a couple of local shows scheduled for this year, the most important for us is being the supporter band for the show of Revocation in Chile. For the next year we haven’t planned that much, except for a summer show (February for us). There’re some international plans also but nothing’s been confirmed yet.
Do you currently have any new songs/albums ready to be released?
We released an album like 3 months ago so we’re not planning to release anything new on the near future, but, we’re working hard on a new album, rehearsing new songs, planning the pre-production andStudio recording. You can expect new material from us on 2024 for sure!
If you could play at any venue in the world where would you choose?
We’d love to play in Wacken someday, for us it’s like the Cathedral of extreme music, it’s easy to dream (lol) but impossible is nothing.
Do you have a favourite album? If so, what is it?
Camilo: Human – Death
Tomas: Organic Hallucinosis – Decapitated
Sergio: Revocation – Netherheaven
Patricio: Nightmares made Flesh – Bloodbath
If you were putting together the greatest show on earth, who would be playing?
Ufff that’s a hard one, but We’d choose: Meshuggah, Decapitated, Suffocation and Torture Machine

Can you tell us about the origin of the band name, a history of the band and a little bit about the various members?
Well, the name comes from a very difficult episode in my life when I stared to suffer panic attacks and anxiety. I felt that my thoughts were focused only on the inside, and that inside is endless, and endless pit full of traumas and pain. I know that I´ll struggling with this the rest of my life, although, I can live in this abyss in a positive way, not focusing on sorrow and pain. I use that feelings when I create songs.
This is a one-member band by the moment. I played for 12 years covers with some friends, waiting to do music. It never happened. So, I decided leave cover bands and start my own musical adventure. Through the years I learned to play decently, bass guitar, keyboards, guitar and signing, to achieve my goals and realize my ideas.
Are you all from the same area? How did you get together as a band?
In the near future, I plan to make this a 5 members band. In the place I live (Guadalajara, Mexico) I can find a bunch of pretty talented musicians.
Who are your favourite artists/bands and how have they influenced your own sound?
I love Queen and technically all the classic rock bands. Helloween, Ayreon. Angra, Opeth, Symphony X, all Steven Wilson´s projects; Haken, Caligula´s Horse, Soen, Vola, In Flames, Children of Bodom, Riverside, the old Dream Theater’s music, Neil Morse projects, Mike Portnoy, Jaco Pastorius, Rush, Vivaldi, Bach, Mozart, and so on.
They basically influenced me in a lot of different ways. Michael Romeo is my main influence regarding to guitar tone and riff creation. The first time that I heard “ Evolution The grand design” song, it changed my life forever. Mike Portnoy is a very big influence as a composer, Mikael Akerfeldt as well. Steven Wilson is a genius. I love the lyrics, the main production, the concept, the speed, the heaviness, the ballads, etc. I don’t attempt to copy them; nevertheless, I want to do music with the same big quality and impact.
Did you always have the ambition to be a musician and in a band or did you originally have other plans?
Since kid, I always wanted to be a musician, a song´s creator. It hasn´t been easy for me, but the trick is never give up, and still learning the most I can to achieve my goals. I want to release my first LP by the end of this 2023, so, I´m about 3 songs away from it.
What songs or albums are on your current playlist?
All the Opeth albums, all Steven Wilson, Symphony X, Soen music, and I try to listen a new band every day.
Do you sing in the shower?
Always. Is the best place to catch inspiration.
Do you have any plans for the band for this year and into next year?
Yes, make it big, release the LP as I told before, and play in some gigs by the next year.
Do you currently have any new songs/albums ready to be released?
I´m working on my first LP.
If you could play at any venue in the world where would you choose?
Royal Albert Hall definitely.
Do you have a favourite album? If so, what is it?
Top and unfair question. I have lots of fave albums, but to satisfy you, I could say Opeth´s Damnation, I never get tired of it.
Do you have any guilty pleasure songs/albums?
Yes, I like some pop artist, so I could say I enjoy Billie Eilish music, for instance.
If you were putting together the greatest show on earth, who would be playing?
All the progressive metal bands as possible. Specially the non-famous ones. I love to discover new music. It´ll be great to give the chance to show that bands to the people.
Can you remember the first album you bought with your own money? What was it and do you still have it?
Appetite for Destruction. Yes, I still have it. I´s been with me around 30 years.
As your fans will be reading this, is there any message you would like to send out to them?
Listen very carefully the music you love. Pay respect to it. Seat in favourite chair, shout the door, close your eyes, and listen to it with passion.
Finally, let us know all your social media sites so your fans, old and new, can find and follow/like you!

We, at The Music Asylum, would like to thank you for your time. Is there is anything further that you would like to add?
