SOL DE METAL (Metal Sun)
We changed the name, but we used it the first
time. This whole experience was really unexpected for me... I cannot say it any
other way. The truth is that everything has been like... hmmm... an
unexplainable crossroad... but perfect... or almost perfect. Ahhh... I think of
it and I'd like to go back to that moment of not knowing... because if I would
have planned it wouldn't been the same.
We are here and His Majesty (Mr. Dandy himself :P) shown me something else
behind what we all see... specially on this thing called music... that I have
loved to live... but I know, this is too much words and just a little sense.
This
project was already there when I arrived, by October 2001. This very ordinary
exploration put me in touch with Spring Heeld-Jim :P just when I got my
precious drums. Back then this was the line up: Victor on guitar and voice,
Miguel on lead guitar, Hector on bass... and the drums? Guess who... In here I
truly learnt how to hit the toms, because these guys had an excellent cover set
list that I just had to place it in my head. And that was for about a year, but
on the way, Miguel had to quit the band and Hector as well. So Vic and me
waited a little to reclute new musicians... and they finally arrived, but temporarily...
Actually we didn't go on a stage or something, but that was the main plan, right?
So we decided the acoustic option... two guitars, two voices... and it was good
:P So what do you think that happened?
Make combinations and proof and create different things... change an instrument
for another and shake the dust from the voice... yeah... we put the bass and
the drums on the computer and I changed the drums for the guitar... I must say
that at the beginning I wasn't that sure... but then I said, what the hell! So
that was about it... a new beginning... ahahaha. Again this thing took me by
surprise, and TAN-TAN-TAAAAAAAN!! we saw our first chance to get out.
While
wandering in my school I saw this sight: MORBY FEST, be heard... and well, we
got into this fest... Click here
to see the pics. Well, after this we have been trying to compose, so we can
leave the covers out of the set list. The other performance was on a place a
little far from the center city... Sadly there are no pictures on this one, but
you can read how was it ;)
And that
what we are doing now...
We
already have our first demo... check it out... and tell me what do you think :P
