Verbal Delirium

Neo-prog band from Athens, Greece founded in summer 1999 by mastermind John "Jargon“ Kosmidis (keyboards, lead vocals, composer, lyrics) and Nik Michailidis [a3246367] (bass). Musical experimentation with progressive and psychedelic rock sounds of the 60/70s led to a 2006 demo album which has never been released. The first official album "So Close And Yet So Far Away" appeared in 2010; the second release "From The Small Hours of Weakness" arrived in 2013; and the band's masterpiece "The Imprisoned Words Of Fear" was released in 2016. Verbal Delirium has played many gigs and festivals during its more than two decades of history. The lineup has undergone many changes through the years as well. Longtime members include: George ''La Trappe'' Pagidas (bass), George 'K' Kyriakidis (guitars).
