PRESSURE CONTROL is the ambitious and much promising new side-project of Vomito Negro founder Gin Devo (Voice/keyboards/programming) and was founded in 2002. After spending months in the studio Gin Devo his keyboard player Manie Gance decided it was time to come in the open with Pressure Control.It didn’t take them long (actually it was a their debut concert) to draw the attention of people such as Daft Records manager Dirk Ivens (The Klinik, Dive, Sonar, Absolute Body Control) and the organisers of the renown Belgian Independent Music Festival who all immediately saw the potential in of this band.
Daft Records singed Pressure Control and released de their debut album Vamp (2004) and in the same year they where invited to play at the 3rd edition of the Belgian Independent Music Festival (with a.o. Ah Cama-Sotz, Parade Ground, Sonar, Trisomie 21, Portion Control & Aroma Di Amore), where they had no problem to get 800 attendees shake their ass off and have them shout for encores.
On their debut album Vamp (2004, Daft Records) Pressure Control brings us songs carrying trancey modern electronics with penetrating growling vocals. Being definitely one of the most promising new EBM/electro projects from Belgium and for sure a very solid addition to the Daft Records stable.
Just when everything seemed to go well for Pressure Control Gin Devo suffered a major blow due to the sudden death of keyboard player Manie Gance on Christmas day 2005.
2006, After a period of mourning and some extensive studio work for other projects Gin Devo decided to continue his project Pressure Control and played some very successful gigs around the world. Meanwhile Peter M. aka BORG joined Pressure Control and takes care of the backing vocals, live percussion, sampling and electronics.2007, while Gin Devo never gave up his already legendary and main project Vomito Negro, the time now seems right to re-animate this sleeping beast and the duo (Gin Devo & BORG) start recording new tracks and playing again as Vomito Negro
2008 - 2009: While working hard on a new Vomito Negro album they played numerous successful gigs worldwide. Mastermind Gin Devo ensures us that the new tracks and live sound will be harsher, harder and stronger then ever before.
2010: Skull & Bones is released by one of the leading independent labels OUT OF LINE
A the time PRESSURE CONTROL is hibernating since we are putting all our energy and time in rebooting our main project VOMITO NEGRO
