LIVIT play progressive rock with distinctive metal edge, somewhere between Queensryche, Dream Theater, Marillion, Saga without focussing on a specific musical style.

LIVIT have been founded in 1989 in Germany and released two CDs:

1) "Just In Time" (Remember Records, 1992)
2) "unspoken" (WMMS, 1995)

Their first release "Just In Time" includes music, which has a more typical song structure. The style is "hard rock meets Marillion"-oriented, strong influences from SAGA can be found as well.

Their second release "Unspoken" is a concept album touching the sensitive topic of a young man suffering from psychicological disorder and his painful way through life until he can't stand it any more. The music has more metal stylistcs, than being found on "Just In Time". Strong Keyboards and versatile guitars push the songs forward. The overall style is dark-symponic-progressive with some gothic metal touch a la Type-O-Negative at times.

LIVIT played as support for Mother's Finest in Germany.

LIVIT split in 1998.
