Eyesburn was formed 1994., and the original line up was: Coyot - guitar, back vocals, Laza-bass, Alek-drums and Nenad-vocals. Since the band originated from the BG HC scene, the first album (MC) was recorded live at BG club KST. After the cassette went public(at least underground), as well as before that, Eyesburn played mostly in Belgrade clubs, occasionally having a gig or two elsewhere in Serbia. During that period, second guitar player Gillespie joined the band and they all started to work on band's first studio album "Dog Life" (CD/MC). Unfortunatelly, vocalist Nenad left the band just weeks before studio, and Coyot took his place as a lead singer, continuing to expand his enormous musical talents and skills. After the album release, Gillespie also left the band, and band continued to play as a trio. At the same time, Coyot starts to take active role as a trombone player as well, and the band started musical exploration of other genres (reggae, dub, drum & bass) making its own specific mixture of styles, and creating their own unique sound which many people liked immediately.
All that lead to expanding the line up again and Nino joined the band as a second guitar player which added more colour and filled the sound that they allready had. Soon after, Eyesburn recorded their (still) most popular and listened album titled "Fool Control"(CD/MC) wich showed the band`s abillity to grow and opened doors for many opportunities in music bussiness.Band line-up since than has been:Alek - drums Laza - bass Nino - guitar Coyot - guitar, vocal, trombone
As a confirmation of their growing popularity they received an invitation for the preelection tours "IT'S TIME" and "USE IT"(your brain) to bring Milosevich's political system down, wich they gladly eccepted. This tour made possiblle for Eyesburn to promote themselves around the country playing in towns they never played before. Recording soundtrack for the most popular youth film "Munje", bend introduced himself to a wider population. They have played over 200 concerts since than, mostly in Serbia, Macedonia, Bosnia and Slovenia, which proved the fact that this is one of the most active bands on sceene in Yougoslavia. During 2001&2002 Eyesburn participated in EXIT festival in Novi Sad where they performed along with Tony Allen , Asian Dub Foundation and Fundamental. They also performed as guests for big Belgrade concert of Lee Scratch Perry, (together with Ank Steady Spear),supported Burnin` Spear on a Echo festival in Belgrade,Ronny Size in Zagreb, and bands like Pro Pain, Disciplin' A Kitchme ; but the biggest and the most current thing is one with Max Cavalera, a song Moses for Soulfly album Prophecy ,and a special jam Max and the band did in Belgrade, on Nov. the 7th, infront of 1500 full-packed SKC, playing mostly Soulfly songs and few Eyesburn pieces (Full Control,Exodus).
Band's enonormous activity and energy they never seem to loose, results with the new project "Gabau" (CD/MC) wich represents specific turnover to reggae sound and continues with another project "Cool Fire"(CD/MC) wich is special because they worked with Ank Steady Spear (dub poet ) who wrote lyrics and performed them. Comunication with Ank developed mostly through intenet, but still turned to be a very succesfull one. Ank sent his vocals through internet and music was done acordingly. That was the first time band used digital technology to produce sound.
Along with those activities bend forms his own sound system "Organja" and becomes even more present in the club sceen.
Eyesburn has released a new album titled "Solid" in Serbia, May 2003. on B-92. label, wich was instantly accepted by fans and critics as their best album so far,showing that the band has matured in their specific sound and songwriting.
All that led to a invitation from Max Cavalera to do one song for the Soulfly album Prophecy,(Moses),and to play on the 2004 Prophecy Europe Tour. Also, Coyote apears on the new Soulfly album Dark Ages. Year 2005. Eyesburn was on tour in Serbia and later in other countries (Bosnia, Slovenia, Austria, Bulgaria... for example Harter festival,and as guests of Soulfly on their tour with Black Sabbath).
In March 2005. comes to changes in the band: Laza (bass) and Nino (guitar) are leaving the band. That suprised fans and critics. Now Eyesburn are: Coyote (vocal, trombone, guitar), Zoran Djuroski Djura (who gave up on guitar and became a sound manager), Alek (drums), with new members: Dule(saxofon, ex Dvojac Bez Kormilara), Vucko (bass, ex Del Arno Band), Vukasin (trombone and back-up singer, SmokenSoul he performed earlier as Eyesburn guest) and Utvar (Partibejkers new drummer). Changes in band have influenced on their music. Coyote had to reinforce the guitar, and saxofon and trombone are more common in songs. Sound is more complete, mature, and lyrics still carry the same message and energy which you can best feel on their performances, cos, Eyesburn is one of those bands who live to play for fans and on that concerts they sound great. Beside all of the energy you can feel on the concerts, one of the characteristic of Eyesburn is thing which some bands are forgetting: love to their fans. Its not unussual to see band members talking with fans and that relatonship is the most intensive when show starts: both, the band and fans are one!
In April 2005. they started recording new album in Novi Sad studio M and studio Cameleon in Zemun. In December the same year they have published their (for now) last album How Much For Freedom? (CD/MC) for PGP RTS. Album is published in Serbia and Austria.
