Borealis

Borealis is a Canadian power/progressive metal band from Orangeville, Ontario. Their first album was recorded in light of a well received opening performance for Sonata Arctica. When the band began in 2005, they originally employed a female opera style vocalist Siobhan O'Brian as their lead vocalist. In 2006, they recorded a demo Eyes of a Dream. Siobhan left the band between 2006 and 2007. Matt Marinelli became vocalist in September 2007, and 2008 marked the year Borealis released their first full-length album, World of Silence. In order to play this album live, they needed another guitarist, thus hiring Ken Fobert. In 2011, they recorded their second album, Fall from Grace, including Ken Fobert as a member of the band. Michael Briguglio replaced Ken between 2011-2013 and is a current guitarist for the band. They were signed by AFM Records in 2015 and released their third album, Purgatory.
