The group released three albums and was perhaps Australia's most notable Gothic metal band for a number of years before splitting up in 2007.
In the meantime Justin Hartwig had replaced McLennan, who departed to continue with Fury and Alannah Probert also joined the band playing flute in place of the violinist.
Chalice recorded their second album during 2001 and it was released in October to coincide with another appearance at Metal for the Brain, this time on the main stage.
Bodossian left the group after this and was replaced by Simon Henderson in time for a tour of the east coast in early 2002.
During 2003 Chalice completed their third album, Augmented, featuring some cello parts from Joel Baligod and Infernal Method member Joss Separovic contributing Spanish guitar in the track "Child of the Matador".
