Sedate Illusion is a full band of Vangelis Kakarougkas (ex-member of Kinetic and ex-member of Equal Vector), Anastasios Kibizis (Guitars), Vangelis Glavinas (Bass), and Andreas Alamanos (Drums).It initiated back in 2004, as a project at first and then it became a full band. In the beginning an instrumental album called “Illusions” was created, in which Theodore Pegousis (ex-drummer of Equal Vector) took part.
Next there was a full length album, the “0545”, which released in October of 2010 and includes 8 songs and 3 instrumental tracks. Peter Politis, ex-guitarist of Equal Vector, participates in two tracks of this album, which are the rhythm and the solo guitar section of the song “0545” and the solo guitar section of the instrumental track “Fish inside my mattress”. Kostas Alexakis (ex-drummer of Kinetic and present drummer of Acid Death) participated in the brutal vocal section of the song “As we fall”.
After that, the “Illusory Sustenance” was created in 2011 – 2012 and contains 8 tracks, which one of them is instrumental. Peter Politis recorded the guitars and Lefteris Zochios created some of the lyric. An important information is that the album has spent its last processing phase (mastering) by Martin Anderson in Lastdropmastering Studios of San Francisco and that it is available for purchase on iTunes and Amazon.
“What Remains” is the next studio album of Sedate Illusion. It came out in February of 2014 and it is a concept album. Furthermore, there was a beautiful collaboration with some amazing musicians and those are: Anastasios Kibizis (Guitars), Andreas Alamanos (Drums), Vangelis Glavinas (Bass), Spiros Gelekas (Additional Vocals), Lia Kolita (Additional Vocals), Charitini Anastasiadou (Additional Vocals), Konstantinos Koskinas (French Horn), Alexandra Grammenou (Oboe) and the flutes are Elli Anyfanti, Despoina Anyfanti, Maria Maltezou and Athina Doukakis. After that album, Sedate Illusion became a full band with the first three names mentioned above.

“UnGod Me” is the title of the brand new album of Sedate Illusion. It consists of 8 tracks.
