Psi.Kore were a heavy metal band from Sydney, Australia. ==Biography== The band was founded in 1996 from the ashes of a local metal act named Carnage (not to be confused with the Swedish Death Metal band of the same name). Adam Boyle, Chuck Lamb and Lex Dourian departed from Carnage, and commenced the search for a drummer in mid-1996. Shortly thereafter, Gecko was recruited and the lineup was complete. As the group commenced piecing together a setlist, Adam left the band and the group continued as a trio. Drummer Gecko was replaced by Chucks younger brother Matt in 1997 and Psi.Kore continued as a trio. Andrew Lilley was then recruited by the band and as a quartet Psi.Kore continued playing the local scene and occasional interstate gigs and also began recording for their debut album, ''Holocaust of Braincells''. Midway through the recording sessions Lex Dourian left the band and was replaced by Merideth Webster in late 1998. Nik Tropiano of Chatterbox Records took over management duties from Brian Giffin, and shortly afterwards the band supported Vision of Disorder. Since then the band went from strength to strength with supports to Entombed, Cathedral and Nevermore added to their resume in the space of less than a year. An EP was released in early 2000 and Psi.Kore toured with Alchemist and Cryogenic on the World War Three Tour before completing some shows with Skinlab and in October lined up at Metal for the Brain for a second time. A freak nerve condition forced Lilley had to stand down from the band during their national tour with Damaged and Steve Essa from Cryogenic filled in for him. In April 2001, Psi.Kore toured nationally with Cradle of Filth and Lilley was fired from the band immediately afterward, to be replaced by Ben Walker. Lilley later joined Infernal Method. Psi.Kore toured with Megadeth in August 2001 and again appeared at Metal for the Brain. Walker was replaced by ex-Psi.Kore guitarist Aaron Bilbija in January 2002. After that the band's sound changed quite dramatically to a style bordering on death metal but with a full-length album looming Psi.Kore suddenly split up in August 2002 when Bilbija, Webster and Matt Lamb all left the group to form Daysend. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Psi.Kore」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
