Sortilege was a French Heavy metal band from Paris whose style lay between Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. Regarded by many as a cult band of the French scene, the group ceased to exist in 1986. The band was formed in 1981 with Christian Augustin on vocals, Daniel Lapp on bass, Jean-Philippe (Bob) Dumont on drums and Stephane Dumont and Didier Demajean on guitars. Originally bands name was Bloodwave. The following year, the quality of their repertoire and their concerts in France improved so they were hired as an opening act for heavy metal band Def Leppard on their tour in France. Since then Sortilege was very noticeable. Since none of the French label companies wanted to offer them a contract they signed for a Holland label company Rave-On Records. A few months later, the band recorded an EP simply titled Sortilege which was very successful. Experts do not hesitate to compare the voice of Christian Augustin to heavy metal stars of the era like Rob Halford or Bruce Dickinson.
