Created at the end of the year 99 by three 13 years old lads, ARCANIA is first of all childhood friends who have the same dreams.
Cyril decided to get the guitar and the voice, Guillaume took the bass and Gaby chooses the drum. All together, during more than 4 years, they recorded their first songs and played on their first stages.
But in 2003, the band is smashed by tragic death. Back from a practice, Gaby died in a motor accident. that terrible loss made them wondering about the futur of the band.
The kids band walk through a very hard period but kept their minds clear to continue. A Year and a half later later with a new drummer and a second guitarist, the band recorded is first maxi single during the 2004 summer.
5 years to find the good way and the real line-up. still playing live and reording demos, the band works on its first album between 2006 and 2008.
the band have now its own musical personality keeping their original influences still.
ARCANIA is still playing a melodic and progressive thrash metal but with a stronger agressivity. It goes constantly on the boundaries between tenderness and anger."
~Early 2009~
the first album is recorded in le Dome studio
produced by David Potvin (one way mirror, lyzanxia, phaze 1)
and masterised by Peter in de Betou (opeth, enslaved, dimmu borgir, meshuggah etc...)
