AGNOSYS was born in late 2001, when Julien (bass) and Maxime (vocals) joined what was left from a band previously formed by Fabrice (drums), Stephane and Cedric (guitars). At that time the name of the band is AMALEK. The first songs, in a Death / Thrash Metal style, show the will of the band to integrate a lot of various elements in their music, picking influences in most existing Metal styles. In 2002, after a year of work, AMALEK record their first demo, Inner desolation, including 4 original songs and a DISSECTION cover. Even though this work is done very fast (the recording only took one day), the feedback is pretty good. Later on, the band keep composing, with the same approach as on the demo : both melodic and brutal parts, european and US influences, etc. In late 2003, AMALEK start recording a new demo in studio, working with Andrew from 7th Nemesis. In the same time, they decide to change the name of the band, and become AGNOSY in february 2004.

Agnosia, from the Greek « Agnos » (ignorance) : inability to recognize objects by use of the senses.
AGNOSYS was born in Paris in late 2001. After having released a first demo in 2002, Inner Desolation, the band worked with Andrew G. from 7th Nemesis and recorded a EP in 2004: Equilibrium. Thanks to a large promo around the world, the release received numerous enthusiastic press reviews, both on the web and in magazines.
Through years of work, AGNOSYS have managed to find their own identity by combining all their influences, including various bands like Opeth, Monstrosity or Dissection. This identity appears in the actual diversity of the compositions. Each one has a special atmosphere between atmospheric, Death, Thrash and Black Metal, with a Swedish Death Metal basis. Combining complex structures and powerful riffs, the music of AGNOSYS is at once a brutal, melodic and powerful Metal.
