Biography
editMatisyn started listening to Metallica in his early teens and began his first band while at the age of sixteen.[3] In March 2005, he co-founded the band, Evans Blue, which spawned two albums, The Melody and the Energetic Nature of Volume and The Pursuit Begins When This Portrayal of Life Ends. There is also a bootleg Evans Blue collection entitled The Stage is Set for the Revival of Anthem that consists of a number of unreleased demos and an unofficial acoustic compilation entitled The Unplugged Melody.
As of July 28, 2008 he was no longer in the band. He published a post on his MySpace page saying he is "Formerly of Evans Blue". This was confirmed by Evans Blue on their MySpace page.
In 2007, Matisyn formed the band Parabelle. The band has released five albums, A Summit Borderline/A Drop Oceanic (a double album), Reassembling the Icons, Your Starry Eyes Will Never Make Us Even, The Kill Plan, and The Rose Avail. Matisyn and Parabelle have also released two acoustic compilations, These Electric Pages Have Been Unplugged and Air.[4][5][6]
In 2013, Matisyn announced that his solo album Alice-Ofelia-Kira was to be released sometime in 2013.[7] This album was released digitally January 7, 2014.[8] The album's physical release was set for February 11, 2014.[9]
