VANISHING POINT

More than six years since the release of 'Distant Is The Sun', VANISHING POINT are once again ready to take on the world with their world-class melodic metal assault on the senses. Their sixth full-length album 'Dead Elysium' is a revisit to the epic and bombastic sounds of soaring vocals, heavy guitars and mesmerizing orchestral elements. Set for release on August 28th, 'Dead Elysium' is a return to form for Australia’s most iconic melodic metal band. In the early 1990s when ex-Eye-members Tommy Vucur, Jack Lukic and Joe Del Mastro found current vocalist and front man Silvio Massaro VANISHING POINT has been formed. The band’s first full-length album, 'In Thought' (1997) received widespread praise and cemented the six-piece as rising stars in the growing Australian heavy metal scene. Just a year after 'In Thought' was re-released by Australian record label Metal Warriors, featuring new (and current) guitarist Chris Porcianko. The band with that progressive, but still accessible compositions and aspiring musical creations did manage to put quite a few highlights to their vita over the years. They escorted a lot of big names on tour and travelled the globe with them - amongst those names were the Swedish guitar maestro Yngwie Malmsteen, finnish Symphonic masters Nightwish, Sonata Arctica, power-Metal pioneers Helloween, Joe Satriani, Edguy, Dragonforce and even the legendary Iron Maiden. Also they gave their European festival debut at the illustrious Wacken Open Air as first unsigned band ever.
