In September of 1999 Argys create-a-band struggle had finally reached to an end after discovering that P. Baxevanis, G. Thanos and G.Motesnitsas were sharing the same hardcore blueprint. Along with Billy (who has now left the band), the band came up with a name focused on the psycho-wrath of each individual member of it and almost immediately begun writing songs and performing live in audience. One year later Psycho Choke hit the studios recording their Choke On This debut album at Mix studios under the production of Fotis Demertzis. By the end of 2001 P.C. had their debut cd on their hands but it was not until their live act with Soulfly that Alkis (their new singer) met the band and vice versa..
After a short period of tension and disagreements Billy decides to leave the band and it was a matter of time until Alkis got in studio with the rest of the band for an Audition. The joining in was inevitable. New material with the influence of the youngest part gave them in almost 5 months a complete band new 11 track demo, simply titled "Demo 05".
The demo receives rave reviews around the globe, with highlight being the "Demo of the Month" award in Greece's Metal Hammer magazine (Febr. 2006 issue).
Since then, Psycho Choke wrote and recorded a 4 track Mini-CD called "The Last Moments of Absence", which you can exclusively hear on this website! Argy describes the new material simply as "the best the band has done so far".
The new material features the agression of the band's old works but at the same time combines great melodies and catchy big choruses with effective hooklines. The production and overall sound is also of high quality.
In the summer of 2007 Psycho Choke shot their first video clip under the direction of George”Detox”Papaioannou. The minimal concept, the green sepia colours and the solid underground feeling in combination with the great experience and magic touch of the director gave a clip that won the greatest reviews in press and became a “sine qua non” in the track lists of almost all rock-metal bars in Thessaloniki.
The band is now working on new material for their new -long anticipated- full length album probably in the summer of 2009.

This is the time of year that we need to stop what we are doing and help those that are
left alone for the Holidays, There are many suicides this time of year because
people are lonely, this is not right and we all know this {makes ya fell kinda
shitty huh?}, so I would like for you all to concentrate on someone you know
will be alone and do something about it! Its not hard to help someone in need,
you do it because you would want someone to do it for you! I also want to say
if someone does you a good deed try and do as many as you can so it starts a
ripple effect! I smile when I meet a cashier even if he/she is not happy and
not smiling, when you speak with them on a human level then it speaks volumes
about who you are and what your’re made of! I think maybe I should not babble
on but just remember we all are not really much different than each other, we laugh,
sing, love, dance, & share just like we are supposed to. We need to connect with each other a lot more
and show what we are made of!!!!!!!!!!
