Biography

Since the band's beginning in 2004, Phazer had already collected several good reviews from all worldwide press, and was several times described as the "big promise of Portuguese Rock ". The Lisbon band identifies itself mainly within the Rock genre, but without limiting themselves to any kind of musical styles, approaching and combining several alternative sounds.

Early on, PhaZer wrote their first songs that were presented to the Lisbon's rock circuit audience at the mini-tour named "Beta-Tour", entering right after that, at the Namoche Studios to record their debut EP "Revelations".

In 2006, the debut EP "Revelations" is released, and soon is unanimous acclaimed by the press, as one of the best records of the year, as Phazer being considered one of the best Portuguese new acts in 2006. "Revelations" still earns more popularity with radio airplay in several worldwide radio stations.

Following the "Revelations" positive reaction, PhaZer enter into an extensive tour, during more than two years covering all the Portuguese Rock/Metal hotspots. This tour allows the band to build a great follow up, besides being considered a start-up act, having only a self-financed debut EP.

After the "Revelations Tour", the band enters the studio, this time to record their first full-length album entitled "Kismet" and released through the labels Raging Planet and Raising Legends. Kismet is immediately considered one of the best records of the year in Portugal, opening doors to new stages and a wider audience, as the Lisbon Coliseum, as support band for "Cheap Trick" and the 30th International Motorcycle Rally festival with "Iron Maiden" as headliners.

In 2012, PhaZer enter again in the Studio and this time to record a new EP with 6 songs, entitled "Rockslinger", released in the same year by the labels Raging Planet, Raising Legends and Ethereal Sound Works. PhaZer present their 3rd record, assumed as a Rock record that knows no borders or limits, which can be aggressive, heavy, daredevil, while at the same time can show a fragile, uncovered and intimate side of PhaZer!
