Born in Cruz de Pau in April 95,
they show themselves for the first time in 95, with a demo-tape (normal
thing at that time...) called "Taste This!". Groovy and powerful
funky-metal songs, but with an explicit lack of experience. In 96 they
recorded "Completely Lost", another demo that showed their evolution and a
much more aggressive sound, leaving the funk influences behind, and
showing much more their rap-metal attitude. A newer sound and some crazy
performances put them in the first line of the underground bands in
Portugal, and so, they where invited by an independent Portuguese label
called "Nova Independência" to make their debut album. "Naked Soul" was
the name chosen for the record. Eleven great tracks, with a superb opening
with the song "Revenge" and with some amazing moments like "Completely
Lost" or "We ain´t going out like that", a core version of the Cypress
Hill theme (very usual these days but not in 98...). The band quickly
earned some space and also a lot of supporters in every town they played,
but due the almost unexisting managment, distribution and promotion, due
to the lack of money of the record label, they never achieved an important
role in the portuguese musical scene, and slowly they began to dedicate
less time to the project... In 2002 they started creating new songs and
decided to do everything by themselves, so they won't make the same
mistakes again... They recorded a demo CD called "Take Control" that had a
superb feedback, like for example from Sony Music, which gave them the
confidence they need to record another record. After some hard work at
Floyd Estúdios, the band will release their second album at the end of
2003, produced by Nuno Loureiro (Painstruck), with the name of "GLOBAL
VIOLATION"
