Regal is probably the only french garage band whose members met on World of Warcraft. Very quickly confronted to their own limits of skill on banjo, Xavier (drummer from "The Last Rapes" and "Le Pécheur") and Caelan (Toulousain and New Zealander) put their folk aspirations aside and called upon Maxime to play bass guitar.

The trio asked Antoine Marchalot, the "living good of comical comic strips" still unknown at the time.

His sense of humor,equal to his sense of rhythm -personal and unexpected- doesn't stop the band from organizing several tours in Europe and release two albums, "Possible Endings" in 2012 (Frantic City/Azbin) and "Misery, Redemption & Love" (Azbin) in 2013 (Azbin Records being the label that Xavier erected in 2011).

It is during the end of the year's festivities that Maxime retires from Regal and from his bass amp to pursue other passions: the observation of the cosmos.

The band then turns to Fadi, a Syro-Lillois metallurgist often present in "La Barrière", thick and aging building in the ghost town of Chercq (Belgium) where Xavier and Caelan live.After a tour of 30 gigs in 31 days in May, Caelan and Xavier go back to the studio to record the band's 3rd album.
