Abysmalia initiated its career as a one-man-project in 2007 when Jouni Koskela decided to upload an extended play entitled "The Sewage of Lies" featuring songs he'd been putting together so far. Enthused by the relatively positive feedback, he decided to write more material. Ever since that time, Abysmalia has gained more members (Antti Jylhä on bass guitar in 2008 and Marko Nikula on clean vocals in 2009) and released three intertwining conceptual full-lengths up-to-date. The music is inspired by the surrounding environment and freedom of self-expression and therefore is not strictly limited to any sub-category of the metal genre. MEMBERS: Jouni Koskela - Vocals, Guitars, Programming (since 2007) Marko Nikula - Lead Clean Vocals (since 2009) Antti Jylhä - Bass Guitar (since 2008) Tiina Hietala - Session Female Vocals (on "Wolves among Wolves") Ville Suorsa - Guest Guitar Solo (on "Sons of Perdition") Panu Rauhala - Session Keyboards (on "Sons of Perdition", "By a Sickening Reverie" and "The Naiad of Dawn") DISCOGRAPHY: Replenish Entirety [released 2nd of April 2010] Quid Humanum Est [released 8th of April 2009] Portals to Psychotic Inertia [released 30th of June 2008] The Sewage of Lies EP [released 20th of August 2007] Interview below updated June 2010.

Story behind the song
The opening riff is what a friend of mine came up with during our high school years in September 2002 if I correctly remember. It was, at that time, a part of a more generic metal song which never was recorded or anything. So, under his permission, I included the riff in a song I wrote during early 2006. This song initially was a lot shorter and consisted only of three sections, one of them which was later chopped off and included into "The Sewage of Lies (Phase Two)". The melodic delay part was added during the recording process.
Lyrics
THE SEWAGE OF LIES (PHASE ONE) Music by Jouni Koskela / Tuomas Rauhala Lyrics by Jouni Koskela You want me to be a part of your scam But you can't realize I'm not your fan You want me to be subsumed in your flock But you can't realize I'm not your dog So what's the catch - if you drag me down, don't say there's none Beheaded promises of (a) life, disdained - what's left of your outcome? You want me to be force fed on your lies But you can't realize I've got no disguise You want me to comply to your sick society But you can't follow my exuberant deity So what's the catch - if you drag me down, don't say there's none Beheaded promises of life, disdained - what's left of your outcome? The sewage of lies I'm empty from beneath this disguise The sewage of lies I'm face down in the pool of demise
