Conscience

Conscience is a French metal band which has sets its musical direction in mid-2001.

Conscience is composed of Nicolas Duc-Dudon (drums and percussions, Matthieu Gerbin (guitar and lead vocals), Herv? Pfeiffer (guitar and vocals), Cyril Stauder (bass and vocals), and G?rald Tanty (keyboard and sampling).

The influences of the members of Conscience are very diverse, but find a common ground in Progressive Metal, by melting together all types of music and all types of musical construction. It finds inspiration in the poems of Nicolas Moulard, a young French author who has been living in the United States for some years. His writing determines moods, atmospheres and emotions which are found within the songs.

Conscience is often compared to Pain of Salvation, Dream Theater, Vanden Plas or Queensrÿche.
