[Band Visit] Birthday Kicks

Here's a brief bio of  Birthday Kicks(Larissa, Greece) with some background info on how the band started and took the form it has today.

It was 2009 when Andreas Almpanis (guitar, vocals) met Jeroen Langstraat (former bassist) in a live appearance of The Last Drive in Larisa, Greece. From February 2010 They start to jam and rehearse together at home and they keep searching for a drummer to form a band. Their first attempts and appearances were made with the name TAZ (Temporary Autonomous Zone) managing to open the gig of Wooden Shjips in Larisa.

Με αφορμή την κυκλοφορία του πρώτου άλμπουμ τους, αλλά και μια σειρά ζωντανών εμφανίσεων με τις οποίες ήδη το πλαισιώνουν, μιλήσαμε με τον Ανδρέα (φωνητικά - κιθάρα) των Birthday Kicks, για το δίσκο και τα μελλοντικά σχέδιά τους, την εγχώρια underground σκηνή αλλά και την ευρύτερη ματιά τους πάνω στα πράγματα. 

[Review] Birthday Kicks - Black Echo Trap

Υπό καθεστώς μυστικότητας και ιντερνετικής αντικοινωνικότητας, μόλις κατέφτασε στα χέρια μου το πολυαναμενόμενο full-length ντεμπούτο των συμπατριωτών μου Birthday Kicks. "Το 7"single "Gotta Believe" (με το "Dressed in Black Priest" και μια διασκευή Depeche Mode ως b-side), καθώς και τα σκόρπια νέα tracks που με εσωστρεφή φειδωλότητα μας έδινε η μπάντα μέσα από το bandcamp site της, μου είχαν ανοίξει την όρεξη για τα καλά.

Everyone who's involved, even a bit, into heavy rock / stoner music has certainly noticed 1000mods to be one of the most promising bands in the whole scene (and I'm not referring only to the Greek scene of course).
