BLINDED BY FAITH : FROM VOID TO ACCOMLISHMENT

Year of grace 1996, in the dark depths of the ghost town of Lévis – a pinpoint on the map of Canada – five lost souls met to indulge in their favourite sin: metal music. 1999: in a rusted cauldron, they mixed a hint of human venom, a litre of bad blood and a fair amount of used guitar strings. The mixture obtained was an EP, the first opus entitled “Veiled hideousness”. This record received good critics and an unexpected, awesome response from the audiences.

At the dawn of the new millennium, Blinded by Faith did extensive promotion to unveil hideousness: many interviews, gigs all around the province of Québec, they even reached the finals at two contests: the “Polliwog” in Montréal and “Envol et macadam” in Québec city. These shows gave BBF much exposure; the band started to spread their name on a larger scale. After lots of line-up changes, the perfect formation was finally found. The members of the sextet are Tommy Demers (vocals), Danny Émond (keyboards and sampling), Vincent Roy (bass), Julien Marcotte (drums), Daniel Gingras and Pascal Côté (guitars).

In August 2002, BBF invaded the New Rock Studios for a two months recording session. The result of this alchemic process was BBF’s first full-length album, “Under an occult sun” released through the label Galy Records. With mature song writing, complex arrangements, a melodic approach and a topnotch production, this album fully displays BBF’s creativity. Then, the group propagated its hymns and rhythms here and there in Quebec and Ontario, creeping in every vacant crypt, tearing the cobwebs and setting the stage on fire in countless bars and halls. All these concerts, usually played in front of dazed, decibel-crazed crowds, established Blinded By Faith as solid live performers with a place in the forefront of Quebec’s metal scene. The unquestionable proof of BBF’s fire power is Imperial collapse, a DVD (also available as a live CD), released in April 2007. Monster sound, blitzkrieg lighting, many hundreds of frenzied head bangers gathered in an overheated venue, breathtaking performance: what could you want more?

In August 2002, BBF entered New Rock Studios in Quebec city for a two-months recording session. The result of this is BBFs first official album, Under an Occult Sun, released through Galy Records. With more mature song writing, complex arrangements and a topnotch production, this album fully displays BBFs potential and creativity. The shows they did for the album releases, through the provinces of Quebec and Ontario, in front of enthusiastic crowds, established themselves as solid live performers with a place in the forefront of Quebecs metal scene. These concerts gave them a lot of visibility and recognition. They played with renowned international bands such as Yngwie J. Malmsteen, Cradle of Filth, The Crown and Krisiun. The show they played on July 30 2005 at Quebecs Imperial was recorded for a DVD that will be released at the beginning of 2007. Theres an undeniable demand for their CDs : Under An Occult Sun has been reissued in 2005 with improved design and Veiled Hideousness has been reissued in 2006 with improved design and live bonus songs. The band is now composing new songs for their upcoming full-length album, tentatively entitled Weapons of Mass of Distraction.

In May 2007, BBF’s second album, “Weapons of mass distraction”, was launched in Montreal at the Medley in a show with Martyr and Quo Vadis. Over 1700 fans for three local bands, this concert was nothing less than a dream come true. During this year, BBF was also endorsed by ENGL, the renowned German amplifier company, and by LUKA PERCUSSIONS, a custom drum maker. After incredible record launches in Québec city and their hometown, gigs with international acts such as Cradle of Filth, Yngwie J. Malmsteen, the Crown, Krisiun and Amon Amarth, what’s in the crystal ball for Blinded by Faith? Let’s see…

During three weeks in August and July 2007, for the fi rst time, the band will go on tour to spread like a shockwave through Canada, injecting his molten metal as a lava flow in the arteries of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, and the city of Rouyn (QC). The Maritime Provinces will be mercilessly assaulted with a loud, vicious feedback in October. In the subsequent months, the band will continuously wreak havoc in his home province, Québec, and, of course, compose new stuff for a third album, another bomb due to explode in 2009.
