In the early ‘90’s Luca Martello
and Antonietta Scilipoti get together to originate Chaos and Technocracy,
a band marked with a big live impact and a cool “fat” sound.
In the ‘90’s it is unusual to hear bands with female vocals,
operating into such an extreme musical context, so actually the band becomes
well known in the underground and releases a couple of 7” EP’s,
a live MCD , plays various live gigs in Italy, Austria and Germany. After
five years of activity, Chaos and Technocracy split-up in December ’97.
However the two founder members, availing themselves with their previous
experience, decide to create a new band, EVEN VAST.
In summer ’98, Even Vast go record their debut album “Hear
Me Out”, which gets released one year later under BLACK LOTUS Records.
After playing some local live gigs, the band records the MCD “Where
the trees still speak”, between Sep-tember and October ’99,
released in December 2000, by the German label ARS METALLI and rereleased
on limited edition picture LP by Belgian PAINKILLER RECORDS.
EVEN VAST go record their 2nd full lenght album “Outsleeping”
between July and August 2001. Before it gets released, the band decides
to give birth to a CD single “Dawning Gloom / Scared for the last
time”, released and distributed in Benelux by Painkiller Records.
Thanks to the positive reviews got from Benelux medias, “OUTSLEEPING”
album is licensed to MAUSOLEUM Records and gets released, in Europe, in
Summer 2003. Further license deals get concrete with other labels: the
album is released in Russia by Irond Ltd and in Brazil by Hellion Records.
After releasing "OUTSLEEPING", the band becomes endorser of
well-known Italian factory JIM REED Guitars & Basses.
By renewing the line-up with new drummer and bass player, finally they
do renew their sound too, by adding electronic grooves and increasing
the dark emotional side of their music.
At the end of December 2003 EVEN VAST create their own “headquarters”:
H--SOUNDSTUDIO, where they start to re-arrange the whole live set, and
begin to work at brand new songs.
Now the band has just recorded the third full lenght album, "TEACH
ME HOW TO BLEED" that will get released soon via My Kingdom Music.
EVEN VAST new style's “contaminated” with electro & dark
influences. Of course, it’s always difficult to describe how the
music sounds like with simple words. We could say it's kinda "GOTHIC
ROCK" or something like that but, as usual, best thing to do is listening
to it and judge by yourselves!
