Opened Paradise: Intense goth rock from an ancient city.


Opened Paradise was formed in Athens, Greece in the summer of 2003 with a sound and vision dedicated to all that they had held within up until that point. Featuring the incredible,hollowed-out goth vocals of Perilkis, the music is a heady blend of both tempting and aggressive moods, influenced by Fields of Nephilim and Garden Of Delight.

Opened Paradise has played the Gagarin Open Air Festival, Dead Souls Festival, The Beyond the Veil Festival, The Athens Festival, and the Undersworld Club. They've shared the stage with Garden of Delight, Past Perfect, Type O Negative, Rotting Christ, Psyche, Arcturus, Theatre Of Tragedy, and Clan of Xymox.

At the end of March 2006, and after of long period of waiting, Opened Paradise released Occult, the result of much hard work and a realization of the desire to fully represent the internal, emotional lives of the band memebers. The album is mixed by Sakis Tolis (Rotting Christ) and mastered by Artaud Seth (Garden Of Delight, Lutherion).
