DESPECTUS picture
Despectus is a Ukrainian symphonic death metal band, formed in 2006 by guitarist Cyrill Turkevich and drummer Ianislav Sokolskyi, who started off playing keyboards. Soon a full band was formed, including bassist Sergio Kushnir, keyboardist Alexander Mahorin and vocalist Oksana Element. They added second guitarist Dmitry Miroshnichenko in 2011, before releasing their first EP titled Human Vices. This release introduced fans to their unique style, which blends elements of death metal, extreme symphonic metal, and even some atmospheric gothic metal sections, all fueled by Oksana's diverse vocals, which alternated between clean, operatic and harsh. Shortly after the EP was released, Oksana left the band, and was replaced by Anastasia Kulikova.
