Buckle up for the ride of your life, Drop the clutch and shift into 6th.............. VAN are about to burn out all over your world. Rising from the ashes of previous entity Katana, VAN has continued the big high powered fat fuzz rock vibe.Having many influences, VAN produce a sonic attack of thunderous guitar riffs, massive sub sonic bass and pure primordial rock drumming. With this in mind VAN have written some bone crunching heavy groove driven slabs of rock.VAN realeased their first E.P 'INTO 6TH' in May 2005. The CD contains 5 songs of raw, high energy Stoner Rock. This combined with a fat back to basics sound gives the songs an identity all of their own.VAN have been busy playing a series of high intensity mind blowing shows with many bands including : Electric Wizard (UK), Dismember (Sweden), Pod People, Clagg, Daredevil, Rollerball, Ahkmed, Looking Glass, Black Lotus, The Hard Ons, Regular John, 4 Bolt, Don Fernando, Witch-King, The Hotel Wrecking City Traders, Monstrous Blues, The Fumes, Hytest, Ancient Man, Stone Ox and Cockfight Shootout. These gigs brought a smile to the face to the most hardcore rock enthusiast and converted many to the VAN appreciation club.VAN have had their music appear on : Oz Van Nats 2006 DVD, 'Retrospect' Bodyboarding DVD - a Chris Stroh Production and the July 2006 Australian Surfing Life Magazine DVD 'Transit'.VAN are about to continue playing a series of live shows with many cool bands and plan to record their next E.P. by mid 2007. Come and join in with the vibe created in the VAN and be sonically abused!Jae - King of the road
