[AMATORY]

Amatory (commonly stylized as [AMATORY], to fit their logo) is a Russian metal band from Saint Petersburg, formed in 1998 by Denis [DENVER] Zhivotovsky and Daniil [STEWART] Svetlov. Later in 1998, they were joined by Evgenyy PJ Potekhin but the official birthday of the band is April 1, 2001, when Sergey [GANG] Osechkin joined and the trio became a quartet. They are considered to be among the pioneers of Russian alternative metal but their musical approach changed over the years. Despite relatively little media exposure, Amatory has gained a huge following in a short time through their live performances in Russia, Eastern and Northern Europe, and Central Asia. The band's current lineup comprises lead vocalist Sergei [RAEV] Raev, bassist Denis [DENVER] Zhivotovsky, rhythm guitarist/keyboardist Dmitriy [HELLDIMM] Muzychenko, lead guitarist/vocalist Ilya [EEL] Borisov and drummer Daniil [STEWART] Svetlov. At the moment they have released 7 full-length studio albums, 2 instrumental albums and 7 (including 4 instrumental) EPs.
