Formed in 2000, LIQUID SKY first gained attention with their self-released EPs âAdrenochromeâ (2001) and âNightfallâ (2003) and album âBloodlineâ (2004). Displaying a completely new approach to the âfemale vocals in metalâ genre and featuring songs that showcased a never-before-heard mix of metal ferocity and beautiful melody, these releases helped the band develop and solidify a reputation as Britainâs best-kept metal secret.

In recent years, the band have mixed regular support slots with bands such as Skyclad, Skindred, Xandria and Octavia Sperati with incendiary headlining shows, winning them a loyal and constantly expanding army of fans. A blistering performance at the 2004 Bloodstock Festival (alongside such luminaries as Children of Bodom, Threshold, Gamma Ray and Sonata Arctica) was a particular highlight. The band also undertook a co-headlining tour of the UK in 2006 with American band Nicodemus, exposing a whole new group of fans to the LIQUID SKY sound.

The band features the rhythm section of Den Constable on bass and Anthony Marginson on drums, providing a powerful and precise foundation for the bandâs epic sound. Guitarists Jonathan Craven and Andy Midgley trade punishing rhythms and ferocious lead lines, aided in this furious metal barrage by keyboardist Rick Ogden, who adds sweeping symphonic sounds and electronic wizardry to a well-established metal blueprint. The line-up is completed by singer Hecate Taglietti, whose powerful vocals and soaring melodies both astound and captivate in equal measure.
