KEROBIA

KEROBIA has a new album titled 'Ontziak' ('Packages'), which has been presented to public on 1 June 2010. This work is the fifth of the band, and also the third and last one of a trilogy started two years ago with the publication of 'Materia organikoa eta gainerakoak' (2008, 'Organic matter and rest') and 'Papera eta kartoia' (2009, 'Paper and cardboard''). This three albums of the trilogy are based on the three types of thrash containers in our town, Pamplona. They are published under a Creative Commons license with noncommertial purposes by our own discographic company called 'Y las ardillas mágicas'. You can find the these strikes of the trilogy in our web page www.kerobia.com where they are available for FREE DOWNLOADING, together with some other material published regularly (videos, digipack pdf-s, .). You can also make a contribution to the project via Paypal, but you don't need to do it in order to be able to download our music.



Kerobia is a band formed by Xabi Bandini (guitar and vocals), Mikel Zorrilla (drums), Alberto Isaba (bass), Mikel Isaba (keyboards) and Rubén Matilla (guitar).



This group from Iruña was created in the last month of 2001 when Xabi, Mikel and Germán San Martín (former keyboardist) put together. They worked as a three-people band until January 2003 when Karlos Ortiz joined the band as a bass player. With this formation they published their first album: Kerobia (2004, GOR), album that won the 'Gazte saria' award to the best album of the year in the Basque Country. After the album's presentation tour, in December 2005 they started to work in their second album and Karlos Ortiz left the band, being replaced by Alberto Isaba on the bass guitar.



With this new formation the second album was published: Rose Escargot (2006, GOR). After being on stages until the end of 2007 Germán left the group and Mikel Isaba joined at the keys.



Soon afterwards Kerobia started a new project, that has been already finalised: the recording of a trilogy of three albums that gives as a result a sole discographic work. The connecting thread of this trilogy are the thrash containers. We have them in three colours, one for each album.



In April 2008 the first strike of the trilogy is published: Materia organikoa eta gainerakoak (2008, Y LAS ARDILLAS MÁGICAS). One year after, in April 2009, the band obtains the 'Gazte saria' award to the best music group in the Basque Country.



In May 2009 the second part of the trilogy has seen the light under the title 'Papera eta kartoia'. Immediately guitarist Ruben Matilla has joined the band in order to bring this album's music to the stages.



The first of June 2010 the third part of the trilogy has been released. Titled 'Ontziak', this EP gives an end to the project. From now on, the band will be defending their trilogy songs on stages.
