Formed in 1996, Lycanthia is a 6 piece Metal band based in Sydney, Australia.
Lycanthia play dark aggressive and emotional Metal in a style that would be best described as a fusion of Doom, Classical, Gothic and Rock.
The popularity of their live shows along with their self titled demo established the band in the Australian Doom Metal underground. Lycanthia's first full length CD 'Myriad' saw them develop their musical style with greater maturity, creativity and originality.
Working closely and without the confines of a restrictive genre, Lycanthia have sculpted their reactions to existence and the world into a musical expression of harsh and bleak reality.
November 2006 marks the release of Lycanthia’s latest CD ‘Within the Walls’ which sees the replacement of cello and flute with violin, streamlining their sound whilst creating greater strength and complexity.
The success of Lycanthia has continued and grown with regular radio airplay and numerous live performances around Australia alongside local and international acts at Metal venues and festivals.

Following the unprecedented success of the 2007 dark metal showcase, the organizers of Hellraiser have chosen to hold a second ritual to support what is becoming a strong and growing scene across Melbourne.
Featuring four of the more prominent darker and more extreme acts circulating the live circuit, Hellraiser II has been moved across town to a better venue, at a better time and on the most ominous of dates to raise hell for an underground on the rise.
On Friday the 13th of June, bear witness to local Death Metal legends Embodied, as they tear the Tote to pieces along with support from Melodic Death Metal veterans Moredhel and two of the more severe Black Metal acts opening the evening with their own distinct brands of hell – Geelong band Varhzaw and Adamus Exul.
Set to be an evening of non-stop carnage and aural decimation – this is one event not to be missed by any fan of the Melbourne Underground.
Entry $12, Doors open 8pm. The Tote - 71 Johnston St. Collingwood
