About Me

THOUGHT CONVERTER were formed back in 2000 in Athens Greece, playing a mix of metal, rock and psychedelic rock music.A demo was recorded which was only available if you knew someone that knew someone and so on...
After being active for about 2 years and after a few gigs the band went into hiatus. In 2005 TC came together to put down the efforts of that 2 year period and record their songs in a proper studio. The recordings where finished and again the band went to hiatus while the mixes of the songs never happened.
In 2008 after Steve, Kostas and John T got together they decided to pick up from where they left and in April of the same year "Full Circle" was released.
Sotiria and Kostas Seremetis would not participate this time since life wanted them elsewhere. Kostas Papaspyrou and Nancy Simeonidou stepped into their shoes and brought fresh ideas and life in THOUGHT CONVERTER.
After 2 gigs and about a year's worth of rehearsals the band unfortunately broke up since the circumstances for many of the members had changed and thus the band would never be able to be fully alive.
THOUGHT CONVERTER worked under many different musical influences and that is why the music came out as it is and also why they had their own distinctive sound especially in Greece. A sound that brings in mind various styles or bands but yet, it is none specific.
THOUGHT CONVERTER was an important part of its members lives.
It still is...
