About Elisium
ELISIUM is a 3-piece band from central (Fredericksburg) Virginia. Their sound is a unique blend of dark rock, and modern metal. Most often compared to Tool and Chevelle, ELISIUM sounds huge for only being 3 guys. Vocalist/Guitarist Nate Compton, and brother Kirb Compton on bass hold down the harmonies with ease, while Nathan Thomas (called "Junior") on drums keeps them in line. Having shared the stage with mega acts like Chevelle, Flaw, Days of the New, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Straight Line Stitch, and Nonpoint, ELISIUM is no stranger to operating at the professional level. They have toured independently through 12 states, and have markets that grow every weekend. Their first album, "Things They Carried", was released on Baltimore based Hard Volume Records in 2004, and their latest EP "Becoming" is scheduled for release in Summer 2012. Currently managed by Lafayette Garage Band Booking (also manages Saint Diablo) ELISIUM is looking forward to conquering more and more markets, and making even better music. ELISIUM is dedicated to the idea that music is more than just entertainment, and that our lives, and the very fabric of the universe are united by rhythm and vibrations and harmony. With song lyrics and themes ranging from determination, reincarnation, and man's many attempts at describing the universe, they are not afraid to tackle serious themes in powerful ways.
