There are at least three bands that have used the name "Exhibition". 1) Eternity X - a promising progmetal band from New Jersey, disbanded in 1998 after releasing two albums on Angular Records and a short European tour. From the ashes arose the band EXHIBITION formed in November of the same year by Jeff Shernov (Guitar), Jamie Mazur (keyboards) and Jimmy Peruta (drums). The primary aim of the experienced musicians was to produce a symbiosis of 80s Metal (Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden) and Prog-Rock/Metal (Dream Theater, Rush, Fates Warning). In order to realize this vision, however, they needed yet more competent support which they found in the persons of Brett Rome (bass) and Bobby "Leather Lungs" Lucas (vocals). Brett Rome had already made a name for himself as composer for solo artists and for radio jingles in New Jersey. Bobby Lucas, on the other hand, is the voice behind the very popular cult metal band SEVEN WITCHES and as a songwriter has played a huge role in the band's success. EXHIBITION celebrated their debut gig at the renowned Powermad Festival 2000 in Baltimore. Shortly before they had visited the Sound Spa Studios to record a 3 track demo which was highly acclaimed by the international press. Several German magazines such as Heavy, oder was!? (10 out of 12 points), Metal Heart (9 out of 10 points) and Rock Hard (which included a song on their "Unerhört" compilation CD) praised EXHIBITION as being the new star in Prog metal heaven.
