Biographical interview from August 2003: Born Brian Paul Vorisek, raised as a Roman Catholic in Kent, Ohio. First began playing drums at age ten, when He realized that such an instrument would surely be better than the miseries of girls at this early stage of life. Music would never leave Him, and thus also the thought prevailed that drums could be beaten upon.

At age fourteen, He received His first drum set,respectively for His birthday. Every day that the set was on 'lay away' at the music store, He would visit simply to gaze upon the instrument that would undoubtedly become His fate. He set stage in His bedroom, to be followed by a succession of bands , odd venues, and many quarrels as He attempted to establish for Himself a reputation. If not the best, then certainly the most psychotically induced drummer in South Florida.

His crazy drum solos, erratic behavior, and putrid body odor (following performances) earned Him yet another nickname, "Animal". As one of the founding members of Osiris Rising, He stumbled upon what can only be described as a 'Cult'. What He had always dreamed of, where He could exist and play as He wished, and influence the song writing. Brian Vorisek's presence within Osiris Rising creates those Zeppelin like mantras that He grew up adoring, fueling His passion for the music.

Brian is one of the founding members of Osiris Rising.
