Hailing out of the Ukraine, St. Julius(founder), has brought the band to a level like no other... interlacing blast-beats and ripping vocals with the mournful notes of the cathedral organ. The band Capitollium was created in year 2000 A.D. in Lviv, Ukraine under the attractive influence of the cold stones of a gothic cemetary by st. Julius the only member and composer of the project (-ex. Molphar, -ex. Liturgy for Nosferatu, -ex.Apostate). In 2000 the first demo material was recorded - the "Undivine Antipathy" EP. In year 2002 "Symphony of Possession" demo LP was recorded consequently. The total running time of the recordings is 28 and 60 minutes. All music is in sympho black metal style. The material on the EP is more brutal than on the LP where are more melodies and dark harmonies. Capitollium is inspired by the mystic aspects of life and beauty of gothic times, especcially by the gothic architecture. Actually the music style of the band can be called Lithurgy Church Metal because there are many elements of the middle ages and cathedral music in their material. Both albums were recorded on Capitollium Recs., composed, designed and performed by st. Julius. In 2002 a distribution label was found - Oupiric productions (Russia). In october 2002 the first band`s release - EP "Undivine Antipathy" MC was prodused by the label. The tape was incuding 2 bonus tracks from the second demo - "Symphony of Possession", full colored (back side is black/white), pro-printed, glossy pape
