Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Elsis had this band during the college years. They broke up after gaduation and in 2002 he decided to re-form the band. The new members brought new influences and styles, so the sound has dramatically changed.
We recorded a demo in 2003, played in numerous gigs, visit our webpage for details ( http://www.buricul.3x.ro)
Now we are in studio, recording some new material.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
