Release Notes:
The basic history of the Band "frantic on march" goes back to March in
the year 2000. Holger (Git.) and Alex (Bs.) who knew each other from
times they played in the band Eyehatefish, decided after a four year
break, where they followed their own interest, to get together again
and make music. They started as a trio to work on the structure of the
first songs, which are the basic of the repertoires of the band today.
Lack of ambition and/or know how, of the drummers made several changes
necessary, till one year later, march 2001, we found Salvo (Git.) and
Vali (Ds.) members of a band Jonestoe, which had just broke up. A few
weeks later, through friends, we got the address of Moni, who was the
singer of the southbadisch Thrash Metal Band Sardonic, and who after
eight years wanted to let hell loose again. It took an e-mail, and
after searching for so long, we finally where complete. The five of us
worked hard on the songs, until one fine sunny day in the summer, the
hyperactive Jumping Jack Christian turned up and boosted the songs
with a good rap. This "Daisy with out aggression" was exactly what we
needed to give the Crossover-Sound of "frantic on march" the last
final polish.
At the end of summer, we had a program of 13 Songs together, of which
we made a selection to record, before we decide in the spring 2003,
which of the songs are best for the concert. The, without exception,
good critics we got for the CD "RISE" (Hammer, Spunk, Sony` Metal
Heaven) and the Concerts, was an other kick for the band. Above that,
the band could place itself on the HITPACK- Sampler of the Sparkasse
on place 6 out of 50 Bands.
The Band started the year 2003 with success: She could play on a few
good Concerts , compose new songs, got a new rehearsal room, which was
at least dry. The prepara-tions for the recording of the 2nd CD was in
action, when the Band was beginning to tear apart. After a lot of
discussions, it was clear, that Salvo, Vali and Christian would leave
the Band. We separated and wished each other lots of luck on their
future musical way. At the end of the year we then found a suitable
man for the drums: Stephan "Filthy" Schor which could look back unto
long career as a drumer. and he had played in cover bands. The year of
2004 we used to firm up old songs, write new ones, and play on various
concerts. The search for a second guitarist was more difficult then we
thought, so we started the production our new CD Somer.2005 beeing
only 4 members. .Because of personal fate and family circumstances,
the recording had to be put on ice for another year. During that time
the band wrote new songs and had a lot of LIVE-ACTIVITIES. In the
Autumn of 2006 Stephan Schor left the band because of a new live
situation. Early 2007 Philipp Reiber, (EphemeraÆs Party ) joint the
band for (he leased himself) the recording of the second CD "Exit",
which was on the market 1st of August 2007 . After we finished the
recording session, drummer Lothar Siebler joint us as a member and is
getting ready for the first debut of our CD on the 20th of October in
Rheinfelden and other LIVE-Presentations of the new songs in the
Autumn/Winter 2007.
