Gustavo started his career as vocalist and bass player in pop rock bands at the age of 12. Deeply influenced by the great singers of the 70s (such as David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes), when he turns 18 he starts having lessons to improve his singing, a process to which he would devote several years. In 1997, after spending sometime in the USA, he returns to Brasil, where he begins to work in publicity. In 1998, he is one of the finalists in the Marillion Karaoke Contest, organized by the English band, with versions for the songs “Cover My Eyes”, “No One Can”, “Beautiful” and “These Chains”. Gustavo becomes a well-known hard-rock singer in his area, mostly thanks to his work with bands of that genre, one of them being The Wise, combo who also had bass player Magoo Wise among its members. He plays with The Wise from 1998 to 2003. Starting in 1999, he also gains a reputation within the progressive circles as singer of the Cinema Show band. They used to present a Genesis Tribute, which debuted in 2000 at the Second Rio Grande do Sul Progressive Rock Festival, when they opened for Apocalypse, who was returning from their USA tour. In 2003, he creates, together with producer Ticiano Paludo, the GET project, a mix of Brazilian pop and popular music which so far has given birth to one album, entitled “128kbps”. In 2004, he is invited to handle the vocals in Apocalypse. With the release of the EP “Magic”, the band starts a new chapter in its career, adopting the English as their main language for the new compositions. Gustavo is also busy with new projects with bands Cinema Show and Sabotage.

Magoo started playing the bass back in 1990, when he founded the rock band The Wise, where he played with this Apocalypse coleague Gustavo Demarchi. Magoo has always favoured the Rickembacker sonority while shaping his own style. Within the Apocalypse ranks, he found a nice mix of guitar and keyboard melodies, strong drumming and energic vocals, all things a fertile terrain to cultivate his own ideas as a musician. He can play “prog, “hard”, “funk” or even “melodic” without being stuck to one single style or musical genre.

Ruy started taking lessons on electric and classical guitar in the eighties. With the support of friends and his brother Eloy, he bought his first guitar and joined Apocalypse back in 1984, the same year of the band´s first concert at the 1º Ópera Rock. With a refined technique, he was mainly influences by progressive rock guitarists. Ruy was soon composing guitar melodies for some of the band´s songs. After a short leave from the band in 1988 to pursue other musical projects, he came back in 1992 and made a great contribution to the success of the “Perto do Amanhecer” album. From this point on, he had a more important role in everything related to the group, defining his own style that incorporated elements from baroque music, blues and rock. He played in all Apocalypse CDs and all the major concerts, such as Planeta Atlântida, Rock Progressivo, Rio Art Rock Festival and ProgDay.
