Naturally, the influence of the Greek \"Big Three\" (Rotting Christ, Varathron, Necromantia) looms large, but also within the SYNTELEIA sound can one detect traces of early Septic Flesh, Thou Art Lord, and Nightfall. Above all, despite being grounded in the early '90s, SYNTELEIA exhibit a vital fire and freshness of approach which makes Ending of the Unknown Path truly timeless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSYNTELEIA was founded in 2015 by guitarist Drakon Hesperion and vocalist Nyctelios. Being devoted followers of the Greek black metal scene for more than 20 years, they started composing original stuff, heavily influenced by the pioneers of the scene - Rotting Christ, Varathron, Horrified, Necromantia, Thou Art Lord, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the addition of Septis (bass\/keys) and the assistance of Amdusias and Oort (also members of the Greek death metal band Plague), in June 2016, SYNTELEIA entered the studio to record their first demo, Astral Blasphemies.
