RECALLING LULLABY, NEW EP for free on myspace.com/lyzanxiaband
"LYZANXIA are very much their own collective force. They are thrash and groove; delicate yet devouring; a sound that's as contemplative as it is head-pounding." (Metal Maniacs, USA, 2005)
These are the foundations of a band worth checking out at all costs and that Canadian magazine Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles calls the possessors of quite possibly the best thrash riffs in the business. LYZANXIA have created an obsessing world, in which beauty and terror intertwine, crafted by an incomparable technique and a brutal yet melodic approach. LYZANXIAs music is all about diversity and creativity based on a decidedly energetic style boasting the incredible chemistry of two vocalists-guitarists (David Potvin - lead and Franck Potvin - rhythm). Beside delivering insane riffs, the two brothers give LYZANXIA their trademark addictive, dueling vocals in every range imaginable from thrash to death to clean. They are backed by an implacable and powerful rhythm section with Clément Decrock on drums and Vincent Perdicaro on bass. The LYZANXIA sound has been shaping and making its mark throughout the years and now is the time for it to be revealed full-blast and more impressive than ever with the latest release 'Unsu' on Listenable Records.
Before LYZANXIA inked a deal with Listenable Records in the Spring of 2006 to further develop their place on the international scene, they experienced a strong and steady evolution as soon as the inception of the band back in 1996. Founded by the Potvin brothers, LYZANXIA recorded their first demo 'Rip My Skin', which turned out to be a great showcase of the bands potential and a tremendous way of getting the ball rolling. In 1997, LYZANXIA recorded their first full-length, self-produced 11-track demo entitled 'Lullaby'. The band enrolled the services of one of the best European metal producers for their first album 'Eden': Fredrik Nordström.
'Eden' also marked the beginning of the collaboration between the band and artist Alain Tréhard who designs all the covers and booklets of the band.
2002 was a major step for LYZANXIA with the recording of a new album, 'Mindcrimes'. The band worked once again with Fredrik Nordström, achieving impressive results together marked by the clear branding of the LYZANXIA style and sound on 'Mindcrimes'.
On October 2nd 2002, Japan (King Records) became the first country to distribute 'Mindcrimes', which was immediately embraced by the Japanese media and fans. 'Mindcrimes' received the score of 86/100 in the highly respected Burnn! Magazine, which put the band in the top five scores out of seventy releases reviewed in that issue. To support the album, LYZANXIA shot a video for the track 'Silence Code' with director Yohann Jouin and for 'Medulla Need' with director Guillaume Pin. 'Mindcrimes' was released in the USA on March 9th 2004 and a couple of months later in part of Europe. Lyzanxia even got voted "best newcomer of the year 2004" by the readers of German magazine Rock Hard. And because the album was embraced by the fans and the media in the US, Reality Entertainment decided to launch a full US tour in Sept. and Oct. 2004, which enabled LYZANXIA to play all over the US and Canada.
2006 was a key year for LYZANXIA, who inked a deal with Listenable Records to develop and ultimately to put the band at the forefront of the international scene. LYZANXIA recorded and mixed their new album 'Unsu' in Jan./Feb. 2006 at the Fredman Studio in Sweden with producer Fredrik Nordström, assisted by Patrik J. Sten. The 12 tracks were then mastered by Peter In De Betou at Tailor Maid Studio. LYZANXIA is now offering their most aggressive and carefully developped album to date...
