Resplandor was brought to life in early 1996, with a sound influenced by
shoegaze and noise pop recording some songs that were published in 1998 (Sol
de Hiel Ep). The band's debut single "Ninfa" firmly established them in the
music scene, receiving great reviews. The long awaited debut live
performance was hailed a success after a strong sold out audience pack at
the Bauhaus Club. After several gigs along 1999, the band got into the
studio to record their debut album "Elipse" which was published on Feb.
