Assalt 43

HARDCORE / PUNK / METAL band from Spain. January 2005, Barcelona. The bassist Albert G. and the drummer Josep G. left his old band "Skizoss". They decided to form an own music band with his friends. They were a bassist and a drummer, but the rest of the band, 2 guitars and a singer, weren't chosen at the moment. They started searching for a while. The bassist was calling to some friends until he called Laura, a childhood friend, and immediately, she was in the band as the lead singer. Albert continued with the search in his high school and he found a guitarist, Valverde, who wanted to play in a band, he accepted to be the lead guitarist, and he found the other member, Alex, who wanted to be a member too, the Solo guitar. Later, Josep was looking for another member, the second singer, and he found Guille, who accepted to be the last member of the band All of us performed some songs in Cal Suis, Esplugues to prove the first rehersal and get practice as a band. A few days later, Valverde left us because he had no time to play the guitar. We were choosing a name for the band, and after some discussions, we decided call us as "Vizio 69". When Valverde left the band, we were only with one guitar, Alex, we needed another guitarist, so Laura called his boyfriend, Dani, who was starting to play the guitar. Then we had the 2 guitarists, Alex & Dani. The problem was that we found another boy who wanted to be a member of the band, the 3rd guitar, Gerard, re-named as Ekor, we test him and he was a good guitarist, so he was a member of "Vizio 69" too. So, we were 7 members in the band, the rehersals weren't bad, but with 3 guitars, it was a chaos of coordination and sound, too reverberation. Ekor, the last member, had to left us, the reason was his job, he had no time for the band and he left it a days later. Only a few days after Ekor left the band, we went to the sound-test rooms Jukebox in Cornellà where the sound was better, and better facilities, we left Cal Suis, we didn't enjoy it. Step by step we were going on, but we only play once a week, cause the room rent was for hours. We were trying to find a room to play and practice all day at any moment. After a long search we found one in Bellbitge, Hospitalet BCN, and when we saw it we rent it, it was a big room. The room was very good, but we had personal problems with a band member, the second singer, Guille, and after a confrontation with him, we expelled him from the band. After the incident, the room flooded and we remove the sound equipment to another room at the same building, in better hygienic conditions. So, after this changes, we were progressing day to day, until now. At this moment, we made some important changes in the band, the Solo guitar, Alex, had to left the band for personal reasons, so we completed the band with Xavi, member of the band. And the latest change is the name of the band, before we were "Vizio 69", now and then we are "ASSALT 43". https://myspace.com/assalt43hc https://www.facebook.com/pages/Assalt-43/93112156080 Read more on Last.fm.
