Convixion

Contact: convixion.gr@gmail.com Formed in 2002, as Conviction, by Nick Papakostas and Stelios Makris , they recorded one demo but split up. Then, sometime around 2006, Manos Kehagias and Nick Papakostas (both in Strikelight ), jammed in a rehearsal and wrote two songs ("Drink Metal" and "Avenger"), that did not fit with Strikelight, so the idea of Convixion (now with an X) came up. Stelios rejoined and Michael Bakoulas became the bass player. They have participated in many gigs throughout the years, including the international festival "Up the Hammers II", in Athens. Nick Papakostas is NOT the same of Vice Human . Compilation appearances: - "Avenger" on Hellenic Forces Compilation Vol. 2 (2006, CD-R) - "Sanctuary" on Beast Over Greece - A tribute to Iron Maiden ( Metal Hammer , 2012) - "Hard Times, Fast Ladies" on Strong as Steel, a Tribute to Anvil ( Skol Records , 2013) - "Convicted" on Steel for an Age (Greek fanzine compilation CD, 2014) - "Chemical Warfare" ( Slayer cover) on A Tribute to 1984 ( Metal Hammer , December 2014) - "Circle of the Shades" on Heavy Metal Greece Now!
