History & Biography
Interestingly, the band was formed in the USA in 1997, but relocated to Cyprus. The founders, who reported that the act was named after a flower, were Nicholas Leptos (who worked for the Bank Of Cyprus) and Clement Fung. The group was presented through first demo Return To Troy in 1999 and second demo Osiris in 2000. Early piano man George Kallis composed music for Cyprus' entry into Eurovision. Greek label Steel Gallery issued the group’s first record in 2004. The next record and label followed six years later. The monicker was modified in 2011 in order to avoid any racial overtones. In early 2016, Power metal band Arrayan Path had a new album called Chronicles Of Light through Pitch Black Records. It was the follow-up to 2013’s IV: Stigmata.

The band returned with its 2017 album, Dawn Of Aquarius, through Pitch Black Records just a little over a year following the band’s last offering, Chronicles Of Light. The group issued a new album, called Archegonoi, which featured drummer Mark Zonder in late 2018.

The Marble Gates To Apeiron arrived in late 2020 and contained three parts. The Demo Chronicles was a 2021 compilation. Thus Always To Tyrants was recorded in Italy and presented in late 2022. The band’s line-up had held and Stefan Dittrich remained the guest drummer. The band was booked to open for Therion in Cyprus and appear at Open The Gates festival in 2024.
