Since its foundation in 2004 heavy/thrash metal band RELICSEED has gained an authority in their native Latvian metal scene and risen from underground band to an upcoming international act. Extraordinary riffing and harmonies mixed with energetically fulfilled live performance creates RELICSEED`s signature since it was introduced to the audience as a four piece metal union.

During the first 3 years the band experienced lots of member changes as well as groping for the sound and style of music it actually wanted to play. Demos didn`t inspire anyone including the band; the first song ever written in the studio “Again” has never been played live any more since 2005. The band had some impressive covers and a couple of their own songs though and RELICSEED kept playing around local pubs and festivals.

In 2007 the song “Slavery” (the actual Latvian name is “Pēdējais Vergs”) was released and even got played on a local rock radio station. By “Slavery” RELICSEED finally defined their style of playing combining rhythmically tight guitars with slightly heavy but still melodic vocals. But just after their first true metal exposure the band members decided to split apart and in 2008 RELICSEED officially quit playing.
