Biografiehe band started in 1999 in Palma de Mallorca, with Samuel (guitars), Josep (vocals) giving the first steps and completed the actual line-up with Xavi (drums), Kike (keyboards), Sandro (guitars) and Toni Mainez (bass).
With the first finished songs they recorded a promo cd called “Prelude” in winter of 2000. It was their presentation letter, written with a Gothic-Doom style and with a very good acceptance in the underground press.

After few years or intense work, the band worked with new songs, and they decided to record it at Ona Digital Studios (Mallorca), and mastered at Finnvox Studios (Finland) by Mika Jussila. The final result was a new Cd called “Fragments”, self released in October 2005, sounding more solid, and get also transmit a dark, heavy and melancholic sound.
