Avalon

Brazilian Metal band formed in 1987 in the city of Teresina. They began recording demo tapes and touring around their area. They always had a good reception from both public and critics which helped them sign with Cogumelo Records, the legendary Brazilian label that had released names such as <a href="spotify:artist:6JW8wliOEwaDZ231ZY7cf4" data-name="Sepultura">Sepultura</a>, Overdose and many others.


In 1989 comes their first Album: &#34;Stop the Fire&#34; which propelled them to move to São Paulo to pursue their careers. With the move came new members and also a brand new and broader audience. After many shows they released a single: &#34;Time waits for no One&#34; and caught the attention of a new record label, Encore records.


in the end of 1992 they recorded their first album on that label: &#34;Old Psychotic Eyes&#34;. It had excellent reception and great reviews. Constantly touring made that album become one of the best selling in the Brazilian independent circuit that year.
The album cover was elected one of the best and the band topped the live performances charts on specialized magazines such as Rock Brigade.


In 1994 they released their final album: “Incognito” considered their best work ever, with a more polished but yet extremely powerful sound, the album showed the band growth on musicianship and songwriting.
