LOS FASTIDIOS

www.losfastidios.com


Los Fastidios represent today one of the European streetpunk scene's most important bands. Formed in Verona (Italy) in late 1991, Los Fastidios, led by Enrico (well-known figure of the national scene and founder of the Italian label KOB Records) released a demo tape in 1992, and they asserted themselves into the European scene with the release of their first single " Birra OI ! e Divertimento ", EP sold out in a few months only, and with which the band got a great deal of good comments in Italy as well as abroad.

In October 1995, after they released their second EP " Banane e Scarponi ", the Verona guys were joined by Seby and Mendez, who already played in the Vicenza Punk Rock band Derozer, respectively as guitarist and bassist.

The band (Los Fastidios) went ahead with its great ascent into the Italian and European streetpunk scene, partly thanks to the first album " Hasta La Baldoria " in 1996 (split LP shared with the Parma band FFD), also thanks to the second EP " OI ! Gio ", but last but not least, mainly thanks to numerous gigs played in Italy and in Europe.

In September 1998, the second album " Contiamo su di voi ! "was released on Kob Records, in association with the German label Mad Butcher Records and the Polish label Rock'N'Roller. In less than three years " Contiamo su di Voi " sold more than 8000 copies.

In the 2000, respectively in January and April, they released two new singles : " Radio Boots " and " Fetter Skinhead ", the latter being a split shared with the German band Stage Bottles from which Olaf, the saxophonist, was Los Fastidios ' special guest on one song. During the Fastidios' European tour, Olaf was even the permanent guest on stage.

In 2001, the CD " 1991-2001, Ten years tattooed on my Heart " was released. It is a tribute to Los Fastidios' ten years of activity, and it includes all the band's singles, compilation tracks, and two live tracks. Nearly simultaneously, a change of line-up has happened with the arrival of new members coming from the bands Oversight and Inerdzia : Paolino (Guitar/vocals), Filippo (Guitar/Vocals), Elena (Bass/Vocals) and Giacomo (Drum/Vocals) will play with Enrico (Vocals).

The new line-up " debut " was in Geneve during the 2nd Antiracist Meeting in front of more than 2000 fans, then in november some dates in Germany and the recording of the third album in the Westwood Recording Studio in Paderborn (D). The album " Guardo Avanti " out on the 20th of december 2001, produced by KOB Records in collaboration wih Mad Butcher Records and the polish label Jimmy Jazz Records.

The year 2002 is very important for the band : a big italian and european tour (about 100 gigs in one year) and the recording of the first official videoclip (of the song " Rabbia dentro il cuore ") in rotation on the music televion channels.

Over the last years, Los Fastidios have made a lot of tours, thanks to which they travelled all over Italy, but laso in Germany, France, Switzerland, Norway, Croatia, Slovakia, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Sweden, Austria, Czech Republic, Poland and Canada.Thanks to these gigs the band received very good reviews.

The band shared the bill with great bands such as The Angelic Upstarts, Red London, Buzzcocks, Brigada Flores Magon, Skarface, Oxymoron, The Business, UK Subs, Dr Ring Ding, Klasse Kriminale, Zona A, Vibrators, Harries, Lurkers, Splodgenessabounds, Stage Bottles, 8°6 Crew, Ex-Cathedra and many more.

In march 2003 two new musicians enter into the band, DENNI (guitar/voice) and ALVISE (bass/voice), so the new line up is : ENRICO - Voice / PAOLINO - guitar & vocals / DENNI - guitar & vocals / ALVISE - Bass & vocals / GIACOMO "LA ZIA" - drums & vocals

In april 2003 the band goes in studio to record new 4 songs included on the new cd ep "Ora Basta" out on may 2003 on KOB Records and Mad Butcher Records. In the same period is out on some european music channel the new videoclip of the song "Animal Liberation" a denunciation shock video against the animal exploitation.

The Los Fastidios sound is a powerful melodic streetpunk which mixes classical 80's British Punk-OI ! sounds with skanking rythms, everything sung in Italian. The lyrics come from the most cheerful street situations to more serious and involved matters which deal with social problems, such as battles against any form of discrimination, for the animal rights, for freedom and against the capitalistic system.

These last years, Los Fastidios have achieved great number of anti-racist intiatives and social causes,by taking part in various support gigs with collections in favour of Chiapas, for the workers, against racism, against war…..
