And it's has been a long road leading to \"Waterdevils\".Apollo career started at the age of 14 when the young Apostolos from Swedish town Bors, inspired by bands like Kiss and Alice Cooper, and he started playing with various bands, as an aspiring guitarist. Not many wanted to be Vocalists back in those old days, everybody wanted to play the guitar, nobody wanted to sing. So I just made the decision to become a singer.\" Apollo joined his first bands Blazon and Craze at the age of 17. Craze released a single \"Living In Sin\" but the band disbanded shortly thereafter when Apollo left to do his military service in 1988. It took another eight years before Apollo recorded his first full album with the band Faith Taboo. \"We started out as a cover band, but I didn't want to waste time just playing other people's songs, so I had everybody get involved in writing songs for our self-financed album \"Psycopath\" [released in 1996]. The band continued playing local gigs, they eventually called it a day and Apollo joined the band Majestic. His singing career took off and when he sang with bands and projects in a neverending stream: Time Requiem, Meduza, Sandalinas, and Evil Masquerade to mention but a few. Things about to start to happen in 2006. Time Requiem were mixing their album in Studio Fredman in Gothenburg in late 2005, when studio owner and producer Fredrik Nordstrm introduced Apollo to a guitarist GUS G who was also working in his studio. Fredrik said he wanted me to meet this Greek guy, he thought we would get along, cause we were both Greek. It clicked right away. Gus asked me to join his band Firewind, but I had to turn down the offer because I was studying at the time and didn't have time for another band","brand":"ROCK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47618118779098,"sku":"5031281002983","price":17.02,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/7787\/3626\/files\/WATERDEVILS_yxeqdj.jpg?v=1771661641","url":"https:\/\/shopmusic247.com\/products\/apollo-waterdevils-cd","provider":"Shopmusic247","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
