This promising young group formed in Encino, California, in early 2005. Their debut, AKELDAMA was released on noted underground imprint Sumerian Records in 2006, and was hailed in metal circles for its virtuosic guitar work, courtesy of young axe manglers Steve Jones and Michael Keene, and its throat-shredding vocals. After spending more than a year on the road in support of their debut, The Faceless released the more ambitious PLANETARY DUALITY in 2008.
