The beginnig of Egoistic band took place in March/April 2011 when Szymon S. Priebe (guitar, voice, ex-Legions of Death, ex-Land of Anger), Natalia Gburzynska (keys, ex-Mala herba), Michal Kosmider (drums, ex-Tiberius) and Maciej "mr. chain" Kudalski (bass, Infliction) met and decided to create something new. After few months of intensive rehersing Egoistic has decided not to waste time recording demos, EP's or single and started to record their first full-time album. In Sigmar's (Sammath Naur) care in Invent Sound Studio No Sleep debut album was born. It is a concept album focused on sleeplessness, created as a one-sleepless night-report. No Sleep has been self-released, had nice welcome and few positive reviews. Then Egoistic started to play live shows in the beginning of 2012. The same days Igor Koscielniak (Deathinition) joined the band as second guitarist and Natalia has left Egoistic to settle on Iceland. From that time the band performs without keys. In December of 2012 Igor was fired and Przemek Kielpinski joined Egoistic and Adam "Dex" Napora filled in form Mr. Chain. With such a line-up Egoistic has spent almost whole 2013 on making and recording it's sophomore "Sacramental Devotion" wich turned out demanding concept (again) album. It relates losing-faith process based on bands leader experience.
