Biography:

2007

After the end of Capital, an important chilean band of gothic rock, Marco Cusato started to make a demo with new songs for a new project.
The idea was to devise a band with a sound not too heavy, but metal and, of course, gothic.

The demo ended in April 2007, Marco met Giuria Matt (drums) for the project.

They began recording songs for their first album: The Fallacy.

During the recording, Mark and Matt joined a female voice: Viviana Torres. Keyboards and programming were planned to be sequenced.

2008

During February Viviana Torres (second voice and chorus) leaves “The Fallacy” because of personal problems.

Opening a new search to fill the empty space in the band.

In April of that year, Angeline Bernini integrated the band filling the missing place and erasing all the previous voices from the disk, again they began recording the album under Attic Records Label.

After a series of tedious rehearsals, photo shooting and recordings with Angeline, the band gets great musical strenght and esthetic, integrating the talents of their new vocalist-guitarist.

2009

Begining this year Matt Giuria, due to personal problems and time, had to leave the band. It was at this time that Jean Pierre was recruited to fill the missing place.

In June of this year Angeline gets in touch with her friend Niko Arell to join The Fallacy as the bass guitar player.

After some monthes of rehearsals, the band is finally was ready to compose new songs for the second album and started playing at different stages.

2010

The Fallacy is now recording their second album wich includes 12 new songs.

In may of this year Jean Pierre had to leave the band and The Fallacy decided to go on using recorded sequences including drums.

In August they tour over Colombia introducing their new album named “Beyond The Mist”, later in December they visit Argentina to promote the new production by having a great live show and visiting different radio stations. Finally the tour ends in Santiago Chile with a completely and gratifyingly theater.

2011

The band continues promoting their last album and booking dates for their 2011 tour. They performed live in Quito-Ecuador on May of this year covered by radio and tv stations, newspapers and magazines.

The band is now recording their third album.

Press:

“What is absolutely to be appreciated about this album is the blood, sweat and tears and the emotion that they put in the creation of this. It’s interesting the fact that they have a more old school approach but to me that makes it all sounds more relaxing and catchy. Their biggest growth compared to the last album lies, one might say, in their playing with more instrumental effects especially piano and synths (something pretty obvious considering the genre they are approaching). Songs like ‘No dreams at home’, ‘Love Division’, ‘Force of Nature’ or ‘Drops of Fire’ are strongly written and have put that interesting old school element I was talking earlier about as a central piece”
Alexandra Sleaze - The Fallacy – Love Division (2012)

“Do you happen to have a predilection for dark, gothic & melodic metal and a fondness of bands such as: Bauhaus, HIM, Sisters of Mercy, The Mission, Scream Silence and Nosferatu? If that be the case, then “Love Division” might quench your thirst for the music your heart truly craves… Amidst the gothic tunes and the somehow dark aura the album emits, there are melodious breaks of synth surrounding Angeline (lead guitar too) and Marco’s (rhythm guitar & keyboards as well) vocal duet performances. Admittedly, I was taken back when I realized they are from Chile… their musical work rivals or better outdoes quite many so called outstanding European bands. The music in combination with the lyrics is shared work and the outcome is gratifying… The production is satisfactory but I’m guessing that cooperating with a well-known producer like Jens Bogren (Paradise Lost, Katatonia, Soilwork, Opeth, Valkiria, Amon Amarth, Kreator etc.) would have given them some extra boost. The guys”
Grande Rock ezine - The Fallacy-Love Division

“Love Division, an excellent work combining gothic rock and a touch of metal from the Chilean trio known as The Fallacy.”
Gothic Paradise - Love Division Album Review

“La banda posee un sonido sólido, contituido por la voz de Angeline que junto a unos coros y guitarras pesadas crean un clima bien logrado. El teclado tiene bastante participaciòn en los temas, con variadas ritmicas. La verdad que es un disco para no dejar pasar, el sonido es impecable.”
el Anillo de Acero - Anillo de Acero

“Lo interesante de este proyecto es, que a pesar de seguir con las mismas influencias de la primera escuela gótica, ha sabido reinventarse con un sonido fresco y de gran calidad. A esto además hay que sumarle, elementos del doom y gothic metal, pero siempre manteniendo el sello dark que le habíamos conocido.”
Cesar Man - THE FALLACY, oscuridad más allá de la niebla

“The Fallacy es una banda de Gothic Metal Chilena. Creada en 2007 por Marco Cusato después del termino de Capital, una importante banda chilena de rock gótico. Hasta la fecha tienen un EP, 2 Albums y 4 Videos. A continuacion puedes descargar su primer Album (Autorizado por ellos) y ver sus videos.”
Saint Darker - Nuevo Underground: The Fallacy

“The Fallacy es un grupo chileno de rock gótico originario de Chile con Marco y Angie en las voces y guitarras y Nico en el bajo. Un grupo que se describe así mismo como "El gótico con verdadero sentimiento" y con la premisa de volver a las raíces del rock gótico, por ello sus líricas son en inglés acompasados bajo sonidos sombríos y una actitud en escena que desborda rock en cada nota.”
_Bonny_ - Reseña The Fallacy en Quito

“Chile has a word to say in the metal scene! Through The Fallacy, they try to show the world that gothic music is alive in that area aswell! They are now at their 2nd material and were kind enough to let me get all the answers i wanted! I'll let you guys discover what Angie, Marco and Niko have to say:”
