Band information

Teramaze is a metal/progressive band from Melbourne, formed by Dean Wells, that existed for most of the 90s. Early material featured on of Rowe Productions' compilations and an album appeared in 1995 with the line-up of Paulo, Wells, Ritchie, Brett Rerekura (vocals) and Adam Burnell (guitar). Rowe released their second album three years later with Johannes and Adam Wilke (guitar) replacing Burnell and Rerekura. This album was particularly melodic in a Queensrÿche-like fashion. While Teramaze remained quite obscure, they did develop a solid fanbase and a strong reputation for good material. "Not the Criminal" was a live recording and issued worldwide on CMC International.

Teramaze split in December 2002, with members moving on to various projects. Wells embarked a solo career for a while. In 2006 he reformed Teramaze; Anthology appeared in mid-2008. The group completed an album produced with Jeff Waters from Annihilator during 2009. Julian Percy had to step aside from the band with a heart condition in June 2009. Ex-Mortification drummer Jayson Sherlock was announced as Percy's temporary replacement; however, Percy died on June 15, 2009. Anhedonia was finally released in 2012.
