I'll Fly
Delusion was formed in 1995 by Phil Carnes who embarked on a journey to recruit a handful of great musicians to record an album. In October of 1995 , the official Delusion website was launched on the internet with a few demo samples and the start of what would be an incredible worldwide fanbase began. The groups inclusion on several compilation and tribute cds has led to overwhelming internet support , a record contract , endorsements , songs on the internet charts , and much more .....
Why this name?
The band had a list of names they had chosen. After intense worldwide searches were conducted for these names the name Delusion was the only one not in use by someone else. Unlike many music groups , the band went to great lengths to establish a trademark for the name in many parts of the world.
Do you play live?
Delusion have spent their time in the recording studio and video studio. Performances are rare and are festival-based shows. One special moment was their appearance at the Powermad '98 Festival and the signing of the guitar raffled off at the Powermad 2000 Festival.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Computers and the internet have dramatically changed the music world. The possibilities are endless in todays world. The development of streaming media has been both a blessing for bands seeking exposure , but a nightmare for those losing out on royalties. With the peering of the world through the internet , a band has easy access to becoming an international music group.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Probably not. Too much red tape , protocol , and payola in this industry. There is more control in the independent market. If the band did sign with a major it would be a very unique contract indeed as the music is the important issue , not the money.
