About Me

Vanden
Be awesome and help us out by adding a sweet banner to your profile or website :)

Ok, so you're taking the time to read a bio?! In that case, we better give you something that will BLOW YOUR SOCKS OFF!! But because we're too lazy to write our own, we'll just paste in what other people write about us:

"....kick-arse songwriting, sick riffage, and some of the slickest, fattest production to emerge from the Oz independent heavy rock scene since Karnivools Themata. This is a startling debut. Mature and powerful, Vanden have all the chops, and all the hooks. It wouldnt surprise me one iota if they are the next big thing."
Nick Snelling from Beat Magazine wrote that. He used the money to buy a bigger wallet, so he could fit what was left in it.

Ok, now to get to the point:
1. We're from Melbourne, Australia.
2. There are 4 of us in the band (when we're not at war with each other).
3. Chicken forms part of most meals we eat.
4. MXC is hands-down the greatest TV show, ever.
5. Only 1 person in our band has a snoring problem.
6. A dot-point list in a bio ISN'T cheating.
7. You are no smarter than you were 6 points ago.

The debut EP, Victims, is coming out in November and we're pretty proud of it. We'll be celebrating the launch with a few beers and a BBQ at Dave's place. You're invited, but the only music being played will be a whole bunch of Pantera, and Dave doing a sweet version of Dirty Sneakers on the spoons.

Here's the video of US playing it. If you get along to a show, you'll see a slightly less edited, but still just as rockin' version. With any luck you'll be needing a new pair of socks by then.
