Dysception has only just begun to
open the eyes of many Chicago music fans with their 2002 release of the “Three-Thirteen
EP.”
Hailing from the town of Schaumburg, IL, the members of Dysception
grew up right near the heart of great music; Chicago. In the 1998,
the band was formed under a different name and renamed as Dysception
in 2000. The style of music is a blend of alternative metal music from
bands like Disturbed, Deftones, Drowning Pool, Godsmack, and Soil.
These bands are also some of their influential artists.
In March of 2001, plans
for the first Dysception recording began by sending a live CD to
John Scrip, the guitarist from the Chicago metal
band, Stonehenge. Seeing an opportunity to assist the band, Scrip took
on the role of producing the “Dysception EP” in August
of 2001.
After a well percieved release,
Dysception went back into the studio to record the “Three-Thirteen EP.” Rob
Ruccia, the former bass player of Arista recording artists, From
Zero, produced their
second EP, which was recorded at Uptown Recording in Chicago. Since
2002, Dysception has distributed over 5,000 free copies of the EP and
had over 8,000 downloads on their website located at http://www.dysception.com.
The “Three-Thirteen
EP” has become a huge promotional
aspect for the band. After the release of the EP, Dysception began
performing at premier Midwest venues, including Metro in Chicago and
Harpo’s in Detroit. The growing number of fans drawn to each
show enabled Dysception to open for well-known Chicago bands and even
a few major label bands such Papa Roach and Otep.
In April of 2004, Dysception went back to Uptown Recording with Ruccia
for their 3rd recording. This unreleased EP is intended to help Dysception
bring larger crowds to each performance, earn more acclaim from Chicago
critics and fans, and gain attention from the record label industry.
