Vesania (Latin for "insanity") was a Polish extreme metal band formed in 1997 by Orion, Daray and Heinrich. Later members included Annahvahr and Hatrah, who left the band in 1999 and was replaced with Siegmar.
Their first release, Moonastray, was a split with Black Altar, released in 2002 by Odium Records exclusively in Poland. The release was limited to 666 copies and each CD was signed with blood. In 2003, the band released their first album, Firefrost Arcanum, across Europe on Empire Records. Annahvahr left the band following the album release. Their second album, God the Lux, was released in April 2005. Shortly thereafter, lead guitarist Valeo (Sammath Naur, Mortis Dei) joined the band. Their third album, Distractive Killusions, was released in 2007 on Napalm Records, from which came their first single "Rage of Reason".
The vocals include screaming and low growling.
