Artist history
born as reign in 1993 (parts of hallucinations fire play and imps, ogres & valkyries) efesar was formed from those ashes in 1996. stillbirth (mp3.com/still_birth) is the live incarnation of efesar and thanataphobia projekt unified. former band velocity sensitive played some efesar songs live but that band generally pointed in the direction of rock-and-roll based music -- a genre of music that does not represent efesar.

Group members
efesar is primarily the solo project of keldot (k). inspiration and contributions comes from v0sh, basketweaver and ash.
