Past
The early beginning of Spheric Universe Experience dates back to 1999, when guitarist Vince Benaim decided to create a progressive metal band together with his friends Sam (on drums) and John Drai (on bass). The band did some local gigs in and around the southern parts of France, going by the name of Gates of Delirium.

They knew that they limited their own repertoire by not incorportating vocals and keyboards, so by 2001 keyboardist Fred Colombo entered the band together with vocalist Alex. Now going by the band name of Amnesya, the guys did lots of liveshows and one demo CD.

In August 2002, the band split because of musical disagreements leaving Vince, John and Fred to continue under the name of Spheric Universe Experience.

Present
During the next 8 months their passion for composing led them to write a complete album, which they recorded at home as a demo in April 2003 with session vocalist Franck Garcia, who came in just a few days before the recordings began. The vocals were recorded in a professional studio, and although Franck didn"t have much time with the band prior to recording it, the result is very convincing, which is why he now have joined the band fulltime.

The 2003 demo, "The Burning Box", was sent to Intromental Management in Denmark, who immediately fell in love with the bands sound, and decided to offer them a management-deal.

Future
Joined by drummer Volodia Brice, the band is now complete, and will begin recording the final album, "Mental Torments", in August 2003.

The cover artwork has already been done by famous Swedish artist Mattias Norén (www.progart.com). The plan is to begin shopping the album to record labels in the fall of 2003, and hopefully aim for an early 2004 release.

The band has it in them to go far, now we just need a little luck to create one monster of a progressive metal band.
