The band was founded in April 1999 by Greek vocalist John K. Biomechanical started as a lifelong goal for singer/songwriter John K who envisioned connected concept albums telling a unified narrative.

Biomechanical toured Europe with Decapitated, Stampin' Ground, Exodus and 3 Inches of Blood, and opened for Shadows Fall and Nevermore for the promotion of the band’s second album, The Empires of the Worlds, which was produced by Andy Sneap.

John K wrote the third installment titled Cannibalised in 2006/07 and also like the last two albums, he engineered the recordings.

John K wrote, recorded and arranged all of the band's music, with the exception of the songs "Existenz" and "Survival" which were co-written by Chris Webb and Jamie Hunt respectively.

The lyrics were written by Adam Rose (Eight Moons) and John K and Jon Collins (Empires of the Worlds and Cannibalised).
