| The first idea of playing together occurred in 1992, when Sergio (guitar), Marcelo (vocal), Gustavo (bass) and Hamilton (drum) met at a Rock Festival here in São Paulo, Brazil, and started complaining about the lack of good traditional Heavy Metal bands, not only in that Festival, but in the music scene at all. So we decided to put a band together and a few days later we began the rehearsals, just playing some covers songs from Saxon, Judas Priest, AC/DC, but nothing serious. During the first years we played only in a few parties in the College. Only in 1998 we decided to take the band seriously and the reason why was that in 1999 the 20th anniversary of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal would be celebrated and, as great fans of that era, we had to do something about it. So we made a list of some of the best bands of that era and started rehearsing (serious for the first time) and along with covers songs as Saxon, Angel Witch, Gaskin, White Spirit, Holocaust, etc. we began to write songs. The first promo-tape is untitled “We Wear...”, which was recorded in 2000, and have two of our own songs (“More You Sweat” and “Lot To Lose”) and one cover/medley of Witchfinder General. On September/2001, we recorded a promo-cd, untitled “Too Damn Loud!” which contains 3 of our own songs (“Watch Out”, “Hatred” and “Fist In The Air”) and a Tygers Of Pan Tang’s cover. In 2002 we recorded a song to a Tribute CD to Motorhead that should be out in September 2004. In April 2003 we were invited to be part of a compilation CD of brazilian unsigned bands that was organized by brazilian Metal Magazine Valhalla. This compilation was released in December 2003 and it is being distributed by Century Media Brazil. The next release, that should be out in October ‘04 will be a compilation vinyl with other 3 brazilian bands, by Dark Sun Records. Besides that, the band has also been invited to take part in an international tribute to the japanese band Gorgon that should be released in 2005. In 2008 the first full lenght CD is released by Kill Again Records, untitled "Watch Out!!!" |
