Distortion Biography

Started off with Lead Guitarist Colin and Bassist Joey looking for a band.Months passing by finding no members.October 2005 came and we had to play 2 gigs (in 1 day) in balla on december 7th 2005 to a sold out show of 500 people over the 2 shows.Arena was packed so we needed members fast and thats were we found Drummer Maarten. Another day was opened up for December 8th selling out to a stunning 250 people.December 9th was then opened up once again selling out to a 250 spectacular audience.Drummer Maarten found Guitarist Thomas and Colin found Peter for Singing.We called ourselves Distortion.

Distortion began practising for the 3 shows playing over to 1,000 people overall.After 1 month of practising the set-list was completed and were ready for the gigs.Problem was we couldnt play anything to heavy,so that knocked Metallica,Trivium,Dragonforce and Children of Bodom of the list.So we played entering up with Queen-We Will Rock You,Guns N'Roses-Sweet Child O'Mine,1 insane minute of a Drum solo featuring lots of Double Bass Drumming, which made its way to My Sharona,Smoke on the Water into the main riff of eye of the Tiger and finished up with or own song called "The Last Song".Also on the 8th of December show we played a few Pantera songs for our soundcheck backstage in memory of legend guitarist Dimebag Darrell who was killed on that day in 2004.

Gigs were finally over,we took a break.Guitarist Thomas left the band,because he couldnt fit in the time.(He started up his band Loudnoises with his brother on guitars iswell).Also Singer Peter had to leave iswell.The Band now features: Singer:?????. Guitarist:Colin. Bassist:Joey. Drummer:Maarten. We arent going for another guitarist,Colin is going to be our only Guitarist he can manage it all himself.We are going to be playing hopefully in Balla on the 1st May 2006.Come on in and Support us.Playing in Balla Resource Center.Support us by coming on our website when it is up and fully running successfully.You will be able to hear our Demo Tapes (including our own song "Suffer of Abuse".Also you can watch us playing the full show of December 8th Live in front of a sold out 250 people in total.Alot will be on our website including upcoming details maybe Tablature,Lyrics,Gigs,Photos,song Videos even maybe lessions.So please support us.Thanks Man!!!!

Irish Music Promotion
Irish Bands List.com was set up to promote Irish Music to the world. Unsigned Irish Music gains very little exposure both in Ireland and worldwide due to the lack of media channels here and little interest from abroad. This is why young Irish musicians find it a constant struggle to get anywhere in the music business. The internet, as a growing, developing network of information is the best way to get Irish artists and Irish Music out to the world.

Irish Bands List.com has been trying to expose Irish Music to the world since early 2004. We have found it hard to expose Irish Music as there is little interest in Irish Music on a world wide scale, but there is interest. We have to compete in the larger scale of world music and this has been difficult, yet our visitor traffic has been doubling every year. We hope that, through this site, Irish Music will soon get the exposure it deserves.
