歌手简介

简介：Inactive Messiah的成立始于2001年雅典，以“Womb of Maggots”为名发布专辑《Life Odium》后迅速更名为“Inactive Messiah”并于2004年在Black Lotus厂牌下发布了同名专辑。一年后该团定型，经过一系列阵容变化后在雅典一间叫作Devilworx的录音棚和芬兰的Finnvox完成它们的第三张专辑《Be My Drug - 2006 》，由于有了希腊国家ERT合唱团和斯洛伐克交响乐团的参与（80位音乐家），06年的专和上张比较起来更富有旋律性、攻击性和黑暗。值得一提的是，合唱和管弦部分是由Chaostar成员Chris Antoniou编排，由芬兰赫尔辛基的Mikko Karmila混音。除此外还邀请了许多有名的音乐人客串，例如Charon乐队的现任和Poisonblack的前任成员JP Lepp?luoto唱了专辑同名曲《Be My Drug》，Nightwish的Emppu Vuorinen录了翻唱曲目《Beat It》（原曲by 迈克尔杰克逊）的吉他solo部分。固定成员包括主唱Xristos、吉他手Thanos和Sotiris、贝司手Lefteris和鼓手Michalis.加入交响及唱诗元素，力图展现希腊特有的波澜壮阔。

Greek heavy metal band Inactive Messiah was formed in 2001 by bassist Lefteris, drummer Catherine, and keyboardist Christos, whose first demo tape, "Womb of Maggots," actually reflected their name at the time. This was still the case for the following year's debut CD, Life Odium, which saw the arrival of guitarist Dimitris and vocalist Mineiro, and led to a broadening of creative perspective that ultimately necessitated the adoption of the less pigeonholing Inactive Messiah moniker. Live appearances with fellow Greek bands like Septic Flesh and Rotting Christ followed, and after signing with Black Lotus Records and welcoming second guitarist Thanos, the group announced its official rebirth via 2004's eponymous Inactive Messiah LP -- featuring a tightly wound and quite accessible take on modern death and nu-metal.
