Believe

Guitarist Mirek Gil was a founding member of Collage, and created the Polish prog metal group Believe from the remains of Collage along with former bandmates bassist Przemek Zawadzki and vocalist/guitarist Tomek Rozycki. After adding drummer Wlodek Tafel and keyboardist Adam Milosz and doing the unthinkable in the metal world -- incorporating a prominent violinist (Satomi) -- they recorded their debut album, Hope to See Another Day, in 2006. Withstanding the departure of Milosz, they returned with an ambitious follow-up, Yesterday Is a Friend, in 2008. ~ Jason Lymangrover
