 Opinions and other informations:

    

Father Golem started with this name in January 2000, as an evolution of a band named Bajo Zero, working since 1996. The first record was El oriented to alternative metal. It had very good criticism, both in press, radio, and the internet. From 2003 on, their style became more progressive, in the vein of bands like Rush, with changes in the line-up. In May 2004 the recording of "Nemesis" began. It was the first self-produced CD of the band. It was published in February 25, 2006. After its release it arose in the band the need of an evolution towards the style of bands like Porcupine Tree, Marillion, Tool, King Crimson, without loosing their identity. (From the band)
