** Early, some informations about this sudden death **
Friends since childhood, VLAD JUNKERS and ANTONOWSKY never got a chance to form a band until the beginning of the year 2005, when they started a in-the-red-noisy-garage-punk project named “the ELECTRIC STUKASâ€. VLAD JUNKERS on drums, ANTONOWSKY playing guitar, both screaming, they already could experiment trouble in finding serious and motivated musicians. A year later, unable to find anyone who really fitted, they still were the only members of the band.
However, they managed to take advantage of the situation by becoming fully aware of what they did or did not want, and therefore redefining the musical direction of the band. Renaming it STUKAZERO, VLAD JUNKERS took charge of the songwriting while ANTONOWSKI asked two former members of his ex-band to join them as lead singer and a lead guitarist. The singer left after a few months, whereas THE DUDE became the official guitar-hero of the band.
A keyboard player joined after another few months, and in march 2007 a new era begins for the band with the arrival of PHIL FROM NOWHERE on drums, allowing VLAD JUNKERS to play the bass guitar and to sing lead vocals. Rehearsing in STRASBOURG (France), the band sharpens its sound, playing heavy punk-rock under american and scandinavian influences, adding a more-european touch with post-punk-oriented synth parts.
The first gig takes places in Sélestat, Fance, in january 2008, and sees the band opening for the SPARKLING BOMBS. Other gigs follow, but in may, just before the recording of four tracks at the PINECONE STUDIO in STRASBOURG, the keyboard player leaves the band, replaced in july by DEE DEE. About release a four tracks CD, STUKAZERO is now looking to get a name by booking the more gigs as possible and kick some ass...
