T.E.N.S.

TRANSCUTANEOUS ELECTRICAL NERVE STIMULATION

About Me

A BRIEF ENCOUNTER. The group was formed in 1999 with the name "ULTIMATE REASONS". After some live shows and personal changes(Nikos Ploussas, Christos Tsigounis) they ended up with the line up of: Antonis Tsirikos, Kostas Vassilopoulos, Anastasis Kassapis, Mimis Grigorakos, at the end of 2001, which is also the current line-up. At 2003 they recorded the mini cd "Showdown" and got many Favourable reviews from the fanzines. They kept up with live work in clubs and open spaces in Athens and in 2004 they changed to T.E.N.S.. The name suggested by one particular band member refers to an electric device used in physiotherapy to absolve from pain. T.E.N.S. have appeared at Rodeo, Mikro Mousiko Theatro, An Club, MAD, After Dark, Gagarin-Yurovision 2007 , Yuria 2007, Support to "THE FALL" at Gagarin205, etc. Now their first album (recorded at 222 studios) is ready with eleven new cuts which they believe, are containing the substance of the group so far, while also experimenting with new forms and songs at the studio.
You can find T.E.N.S.'s first CD at Vinyl Microstore - Athens.
The song "Declaration" can also be found at "Yurovision 2007" compilation.
