Audiovision is a Swedish Christian heavy metal band that was formed in 2002 as a side project by Narnia frontman Christian Rivel. The group released their debut album The Calling on Rivel Records in 2005. Musically, Audiovison is heavier than Rivel's main group Narnia, sticking to a more straightforward power metal sound. The band's debut album The Calling also features many well known guest musicians from bands such as KISS, Candlemass, and Freak Kitchen. Image File history File links Flag_of_Sweden. ...
