Polish Progressive Metal formed in 2011 in Katowice / Sosnowiec.The SickNest band was formed in January 2011 on the initiative of Gipson (guitar), Dave (drums), Sergei (keyboards) and Pilot (vocal). In April, Banan (guitar) joined, and Hipis (bass) soon followed. The adopted name reflects what happens musically inside the band. Each of us is original in its crazy way, which gives you the opportunity to create unique music.
In 2012, the band recorded a demo, where they were placed two completely different music pieces, showing the potential of the group. The material has been well received as evidenced by reviews, attendance at concerts and invitations to support, among others Jelonka, Kata and Turbo.
At the end of 2014, work on the first full album, titled Reality Imprisoned, was finished. 8 highly progressive tracks inspired by many metal genres, which also contain a dose of other styles of music. The main assumption was the lack of restrictions in creating music. An original approach to playing, the originality and complexity of the tracks characterize the music path that the SickNest band follows.
After a series of concerts accompanied by the legends of the Polish and foreign metal scene, the band drops Hipis, whose place is replaced by Krzysztof "Mazi" Mazurek. Work on the next album begins. Meanwhile, the band leaves the vocalist Pilot, whose place after long months of searching is occupied by Michal "Ever" Ewertowski. The band is currently finishing recording for the second album, which will be released in the spring of 2018.
