The Costarican Gothic Metal Band ¨The Eyes of Desolation¨ have travelled a long way from their alternative rock roots since 2005 when high school friends Carlomagno Charlie Varela (Vocals), Chus Mora (Guitars) and Javier Murillo (Bass) started practicing and composing alternative rock songs for their first musical project, it did not take long for them get curious about the gothic metal genre and embrace this musical style in their composition which helped them to expose and improve their musical creativity.

Due to the changes and evolution in the musical style of the project the founder members decided to give a name to the band according with their sound and that´s when in 2008 The Eyes of Desolation was born.

Due to some changes in the line up of the band, Carlos Carazo (Keys) and Mario Vega (Drums) joined together with the three original members and founders of the band to form the current line up of The Eyes of Desolation.

By June 2013 the band released their first studio album titled ¨Songs for Desolated Hearts¨
