Ensis was founded in 2006 after the split of the
band Tchaka.
The remaining drummer and guitarist were quickly joined
by musicians
from other former luxemburgish bands such as Desiderata,
Presshell and Spyglass.
Taking an all natural turn and leaving much of their
former musical styles behind,
the five headed toward what can be classified as Death/Trash
Metal.
In January 2007, Ensis played their first show, and soon
more were following.
All in all, thirteen shows were played in 2007, in Luxembourg
and the Greater Region,
sharing the stage with bands such as
Darkest Hour, Himsa, Ephel Duath, Apocalypse Now, Under
the Pledge of Secrecy,
and of course local burners such as
Defdump, ExInferis, Desdemonia, D.A.D.O.E.S. and many
more.
In july 2007, the 5 musicians entered the locally renowned
Flappi Studios
where 4 songs were recorded and released two months later
as their debut EP,
entitled Overture / The burning shrine of hypocrisy with
approximately 20 min. of playtime.
