Angelus Apatrida

Angelus Apatrida was formed in March 2000 in the Spanish city of Albacete, following the merger of two young bands that shared the same rehearsal space, with the aim of carrying out a musical project encompassing and unifying all the influences of each of its members. In 2001, they recorded a first demo-CD titled Lost in the Realms of Orchinodaemon, with a style close to European power metal. The band's other members then recruited drummer Victor Valera, while Guillermo Izquierdo took on the roles of guitarist and singer. In addition, the band decided to toughen up its style and change its image. They therefore chose to draw inspiration from bands such as Overkill, Megadeth, Anthrax, Metallica, Annihilator and Pantera, and to change their logo.
