Allen's Hand
It all started when Stan (vocals) (after Avalanche disbanded(2008), decided toput together another band ,that would be named with the stupidest and most ridiculous name possible, so they'd perform the songs he'd written and create more music. His quest for musical companions led him to Soty, a guitarist with mad skills and musicianship, with a face more emotionless than michael jackson injected with 1000 botox shots. Through a friend, they found Gustav, a fantastic technical drummer, and quite possibly, the hairiest being in existence. Last but not least, Panos came in to complete the quartet. He might not talk much (at all actually), but he prefers to express himself through the extreme awesomeness that comes out of his 5-string bass. The band is currently rehearsing and performing live and has plans for recording a kick-ass album, as well as achieving their dreams of international stardom and obtaining a mountain of kinder buenos.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
