Teramaze are an Australian progressive metal band formed in 1995 in Geelong, Victoria.

Initially known as Terrormaze, the band later changed its name to Teramaze to reflect founding member Dean Wells' evolving personal convictions and a shift toward a more complex, progressive musical direction. The band was active until 2002, taking a hiatus before being reignited by Wells in 2009.

Teramaze was established in 1995 by guitarist and vocalist Dean Wells. That year, they released their debut album Doxology. The band’s early work had a strong thrash metal influence, which later evolved into a more progressive metal sound. After disbanding in 2002, Dean rekindled his passion for the project in 2009, leading to the release of Anhedonia in 2012. Anhedonia was co-produced by Jeff Waters of the Canadian metal band Annihilator.

Teramaze's 2015 album Her Halo is widely regarded as a standout in the progressive metal genre, marking a significant evolution in the band's sound and artistic direction. MetalReviews awarded the album a 91/100, praising its blend of technical prowess and emotional depth. The review highlights Nathan Peachey's vocal performance, comparing his natural range to that of Tommy Karevik (Kamelot/Seventh Wonder). Tracks like "An Ordinary Dream" and "Broken" are noted for their melodic strength and compelling arrangements.

Since then the band has released numerous albums including: Are We Soldiers (2019), and I Wonder (2020).

In October 2022, Teramaze released Flight of the Wounded, continuing to explore and expand their progressive metal style. They followed this with Dalla Volta in 2023, a compilation that included reimagined versions of earlier songs and new material.

In April 2024, Teramaze released Eli: A Wonderful Fall from Grace. Most recently, in October 2024, they released Teracoustic Sessions Vol 1, which features acoustic versions of some of their previous songs.

In 2024, they released the single "Bullet To A Pharaoh", accompanied by a music video.
