The band was formed in late 2004, in Athens/Greece under the name Providence by Jon T. (vocals), Nick P. (guitars) and Peter L. (One Block Society, ex. Stagnate - drums). After a few months Billy M. joined the band as the bass player. Through the next years Providence took part in many shows with local bands like One Block Society, The Voldera Cult, etc. They've also successfully supported several well-known hardcore/metal groups such as PRO-PAIN, BORN FROM PAIN, SEPULTURA and they followed STAMPIN' GROUND in their last Greek tour ever.
In 2007 the band's name changed to EDEN DEMISE, but they kept the trademarks of their sound like heavy riffing, street grooves, devastating breakdowns and their attitude. After that they made a Greek tour with LAST HOPE and gave some very strong shows.
Later this year, EDEN DEMISE released their first work, “Scars Of A Shattered World” EP, a representative sample of the band’s sound. The end of 2007 found them stronger than ever as they opened ARCH ENEMY's first show in Greece and played in London with UK's hardcore heroes KNUCKLEDUST.
After many gigs with bands like ROMEO MUST DIE, MAROON, RAFFLEZIA, HEAVEN SHALL BURN, CALIBAN, SETTLE THE SCORE, EDEN DEMISE signed with ON THE ATTACK RECORDS which is located in New York (USA), and in February 2009 they released their first full length album "The Takeover" which received great feedback in Greece and worldwide. In June of the same year they appeared in Rockwave, the biggest greek metal/rock festival with bands like SLIPKNOT, MASTODON, DOWN, KYLESA and TORCH. An Athens -Sofia mini tour with SETTLE THE SCORE, REDOUND and MELEKH followed and they are currently workin' on new material.
Stay tuned, there are more to come!
