DEATH FROM ABOVE
ENGLISH
DEATH FROM ABOVE Death from Above began in early of 2006, when i was pretty bored and no band. I should make some noise, so when my two previous bands has broke up (NEUROSE URBANA-2004 and CHAOTIX -2005 ) I started to think about a new project band. as i’m a D-beat maniac for years and my idea was do a real D-beat R@w Punk band , not like these boring clones, but in the vein of classics bands from 80’s, thus i began work in this new project. In first time the line up was to be with me (MINGAU) on Guittar and Vocals, THIAGO (ex-SOCIOFOBIA) on Bass and FOFÃO (BESTHOVEN) on Drums, but in reason of distance and as Fofão living in other town,he couldn’t came to GYN - city for practice. So, we invite RATÃO (NEUROSE URBANA) to help us on drums. we did 6 songs, but after some practices and two gigs, his gone away. Thus we invite HASSAN (Sociofobia-drums and Desastre-guittar) to help us on drums. We practice alot and got to record 6 songs, plus a Discharge cover for our demo “Lost In The War Insane”, in December’ 2006, after the record we did a gig and the guy gone away too. And since early of 2007 we have SLAKE (singer in WxCxM) on drums in this solid line up. When we decide to play D-BEAT we didn’t do a boring d-beat, but we are more into the classics d-beat 80’s like: DISCARD (where we stole the name for band, from ”Death From Above” 7EP 1990), DISASTER(UK), ICONOCLAST and DIATRIBE (USA), U.B.R. (YUGOSLAVIJA), EU’S ARSE and UNDERAGE (ITALIA), MG-15 (SPAIN), UNRULED (CANADA), FADER WAR and BANNLYST (NORWAY), DISCLOSE and CROW’ first EP (JAPAN), DISARM (SWEDEN), ANTI SECT’ demos (UK), DISCHARGE and more. Plus others R@w Punk bands from 90’s that we love too. Others influences are: Beer, Vodka, Cachaça, Rum, Pubs, Night, Streets and crazy things that happen when you living in the biggest boring city of the world. The lyrics are about too much differents things like; lies, illusion, religion, goverment, violence, power, conspiracy and war too. Because war still a reality in the world and also not just war betwen nations, but war in our lifes, in our day by day. Everytime people fight for survival, money, power, religion and war to war. that’s a nonsense thing! too bad it’s just our reality and what we can do is show this suck reality that we living everyday. Ok, we hope the people can enjoy this short history and fell free to get in touch for whatever reason and for friendship too. by Mingau
