BAND STORY ANGLES / FUN FACTS
1. Guitars, bass, drums, and vocals were tracked by Lee and Caleb from their homes. The guitar tracks were reamped and the track was produced by Henrik Udd in Sweden.
2. Caleb has a really weird writing process and the bulk of the instrumentals for these songs were written in one day, which consisted of 14-18 hours straight of Caleb sitting in front of a computer.
3. The band would likely not have been possible without Kijiji. All of the members in the band were found via a Kijiji ad. Terence and Caleb met after Caleb met a drummer through Kijiji, and asked him who the insanely good vocalist on his tracks was.
4. Lee was originally the Lead Guitarist of the band until Caleb and Terence found out that he could sing clean vocals. This discovery led the band down a new path where Caleb transitioned to the Lead Guitarist role and Lee took over Rhythm Guitar and clean vocals.
5. During the recording of the album, Tom tore his pectoral muscle completely off his bone in a demonstration of pure muscle badassery and had to have surgery. He is currently recovering and will have to incorporate blast beats into his rehabilitation program.

SIONIS is based out of Edmonton, AB, Canada and was formed in 2018. It started as a remote collaboration between lead guitarist Caleb LeBlanc and main vocalist Terence Thiessen (RIOT in Paradise, For Reasons Lost). After the two realized they were on to something interesting, in 2019 they recruited rhythm guitarist and clean vocalist Lee Stanhope, and drummer Tom Wolf (All Else Fails, Original Violence).
On August 21st, 2020, SIONIS will be releasing their debut single ASTHENIA, off their upcoming album EGO, which is mixed and mastered by Henrik Udd (Architects, Bring Me The Horizon). The track also features hard-hitting, technical drum production composed in part by Jon Deiley of Northlane.
