Details:
Implosion is a progressive metal band from Thessaloniki, Greece.

Current line-up is: Tasos Korkovelos-vocals&keyboards, Alex Papoulidis-guitars, Argyris Tsangalidis-bass, Kostas Anagnostou-drums.

Implosion started as a band in 2002. After giving several shows in Thessaloniki, decided to record a demo of 3 songs.At that time band members were the same as now, with Pericles Hamalides as the bass player and Chris Fotiades as the lead singer. In 2006, Pericles left the band due to military obligations, and was replaced by Argiris Tsangalidis. Influences of the band are progressive metal monsters, like Dream Theater, Fates Warning, Pain Of Salvation and of course metal bands like Nevermore, Pantera and Machine Head. Implosion have just released their debut album âLucidity In Quietusâ, recorded and mixed in the bandâs own studio by the bandâs keyboard player Tasos Korkovelos and mastered at Finnvox Studios,Finland by Mika Jussila. Appearing on a masterful bass solo on âTemptationâ is the great Kristoffer Gildenlow (Dial, ex-Pain of Salvation). Due to personal reasons, in 2007 Chris Fotiades left the band so the bandâs debut album vocals were recorded by the bandâs keyboard player and producer, Tasos Korkovelos.

As of today, Implosion are in âhybernation modeâ as the bandâs guitarist Alex Papoulidis is doing his military service in Greece, while the keyman/vocalist is off to Boston to study at Berklee College of Music.
