Alogia is a Serbian heavy metal band from Smederevo.
Alogia was formed in 2000 by brothers Miroslav and Srđan Branković (guitars). The rest of lineup consisted of Damir Adžić (drums), Ivan Vasić (bass guitar) and Branislav Dabić (keyboards). During 2001, singers Ivica Lauš and Nikola Mijić, winners of the Radio Television of Serbia's singing contest 3K Dur, joined the band. Alogia’s first album, Priče o vremenu (Tales of Time), was released in February 2002 through One Records. After the album was released, another keyboard player, Vladimir Đedović, joined the band.
During 2003, Alogia went on hiatus, due to Vasić's, and Branković brothers' army obligations. In 2004, the band began recording their second album. In August 2004, Alogia signed foreign contract with the record label Locomotive Music. In September 2004, the band released their second album, entitled Priče o životu (Tales of Life), through One Records.
In 2005, Alogia released Secret Spheres of Art for the foreign market. The album consisted of the English language versions of the songs from their first album. The album, however, did not see expected success. In 2006, the band released the live album Priče o vremenu i životu – Live at SKC. Album featured Divlje Jagode guitarist Sead Lipovača, Riblja Čorba guitarist Vidoja Božinović and drummer Vicko Milatović, Kerber vocalist Goran Šepa, and Osvajači guitarist Dragan Urošević as guests. On 6 March 2006, Alogia performed as the opening band on Apocalyptica concert in Belgrade's SKC, and on 30 July 2006, alongside Kraljevski Apartman, as an opening act on Whitesnake concert on Belgrade's Tašmajdan Stadium.
