Biografia : Cyborg (ROU)

Cyborg was founded in 2003 as a one-man project conducted by Matei Tibacu-Blendea when he was 14 years old and was living in the US (Phoenix, AZ). He recorded a homemade demo entitled “Arrival” in his cave, naming the project “Skull”. It was Thrash metal with progressive and melodic death metal influences.

In 2005, Matei forcibly returned to his home-turf in Bucharest, Romania and immediately started work on the debut album. He came in contact with Andi Ionescu (frontman of Matei’s favorite romanian band „Taine”) who had recently opened up a studio, where he also met the great Ady Tabacaru (drummer from Taine, Matei’s favorite romanian drummer). Ten songs were prepared for the debut album, 8 originals and two covers by Celtic Frost and Testament.

The project/band name was quickly changed to Cyborg as it is now known.

The album is entitled „The Last Thing You’ll See” and is out now. This is the debut album of a very passionate metal fan who had THIS (the album) to “say” at the age of 15, it is a basis, a starting point for a path that has yet to be battered. All instruments recorded by Matei.

In late 2007, Matei met Alin Iordache (also bassist in the band „Calm” at the time), Catalin Radulescu (guitars) and through them he met drummer Razvan Dutchievici. Alin, Catalin and Razvan were generous enough to lend Matei out with live performances and consequently with the album release concert (which is bound to take place during the summer of 2009). In the initial „gang of four” (Matei – lead guitars and vocals, Alin – bass, Catalin – guitar, Razvan – drums), Cyborg opened for such bands as Onslaught, Suicidal Angels, The Ocean and Bloody Sign.

After the summer of 2009 ceased to flow, Cyborg took another undetermined break AS A BAND for many reasons. When it will resume, it will be in the form of a one-man project again but with many guest appearances and of course a different more advanced musical style : a personal progressive / sci-fi thrash metal.
