Band Bio

Hailing from Los Angeles, California, this is Apocolantis, a combination of the words Apocolypse and Atlantis. Originally started in 2007, Apocolantis was a power metal band, but then, they thought their music "wasn't good enough". So now, they are metalcore, however, they still have their keyboard player. All of them went to MI (Musician's Institute) in California, and now they're making the big time.
