║ ║
║ Karkaos is a long term project that has been constantly evolving ║
║ since its founding days, back in 2003, by Vincent Harnois. ║
║ ║
║ Previously known as ôSinister Vengeanceö, the group officially hits ║
║ the local scene in 2009 with a new evocative name ôKarkaosö and ║
║ Harnois (Guitar and Vocals at the time) was able to establish a ║
║ steady line-up comprising of Michel PΘloquin on the Keyboards, ║
║ Francis Tremblay as Lead Guitarist and Guillaume Vaillancourt on ║
║ the Bass. The band soon discovers metal vocalist Veronica O. ║
║ Rodriguez whose natural integration was officialised in mid-2010 ║
║ and as well as welcoming newcomer Normand Martel on drums. ║
║ ║
║ Once the lineup is sealed, Karkaos enters the studios and releases ║
║ their first single named "Ashes". In October 2011, the band ║
║ releases its first EP entitled ôIn Burning Skiesö and soon after a ║
║ video clip for the song ôThe Tempestö. The EP receives excellent ║
║ reviews from different critics and is extended an invitation to ║
║ perform two songs on MontrealÆs Music TV Station ôMusique Plusö. ║
║ The band quickly grasps the attention of the local metal scene and ║
║ has the opportunity to play with great local and international acts ║
║ such as Into Eternity, Enslaved, Unexpect and Unleash The Archers. ║
║ ║
║ The band undergoes a positive transition before embarking in new ║
║ projects: they welcome SΘbastien BΘlanger-Lapierre on keyboards in ║
║ 2012 and in 2013, Eddy Levitsky as the new bassist. Karkaos ║
║ confidentally returns to the studios to record their debut ║
║ full-length album called öEmpireö. Shortly after recording, Francis ║
║ Tremblay departs from Karkaos and is replaced by Samael Pelletier. ║
║ ║
║ The first video clip for ôEmpireöÆs single ôDepths Of Madnessö is ║
║ shot in October and later released in December 2013 showcasing the ║
║ new solid line-up. Karkaos has an unwavering mindset and a strong ║
║ synergy that enables them to venture into great projects such as ║
║ ôEmpireöÆs official release in March 2014, a second video clip and ║
║ taking the win to battle in the Finals for the "En Route vers Heavy ║
║ MTL" contest. ║
