Batina

BIO ENG



The band comes from Prekmurje, Slovenia. It has been set up in September

2006, but the idea for the band occured earlier when Stefan Kreslin (former

guitarist of Disrespect, Berlin) and Dejan Kustec (guitarist) started

writing their first pieces of music. A short time after Dominik Klekl

(drums, ex Page-One) and Andrej Mataj (bass, ex Vulvathrone) joined with the band, so they started rehearsals in the dark basement of Dominik. In 2007 Matej Cvetko (vocal, ex guitarist of Arthemida)

joined the band and so they were in full composition. In October 2007 they

recorded their first Demo CD with four songs for club promotion. The year

2007 was finished with a successful concert at the MIKK in Murska Sobota,

Slovenia with more visitors than expected. The year 2008 passed with a lot of concerts and festivals all around Slovenia. In Avgust 2008 the bass player Andrej has left the band and Iztok Kuzma (ex Wrong) joined. In the moment the band is working on the release of their record.



BIO SLO



Band prihaja iz Slovenije, natančneje iz Prekmurja. Ustanovljen je bil septembra 2006, vendar se je ideja za skupino porodila že prej, ko sta Štefan Kreslin (nekdanji kitarist Disrespect iz Berlina) in Dejan Kustec (kitarist) začela pisati prve komade. Kmalu zatem sta se jima pridružila Dominik Klekl (bobni, ex Page-One) in Andrej Mataj (bas, ex Vulvathrone). Tako so začeli z vajami v temačnih kletnih prostorih Dominika. Marca 2007 se jim je pridružil Matej Cvetko (vokal, ex kitarist Arthemida) in band je bil v polni sestavi. Oktobra 2007 so posneli svoj prvi demo CD s 4 komadi za klubsko promocijo. Leto 2007 so zaključili z odmevnim koncertom v Mikk-u v Murski Soboti. Leto 2008 je za bend minilo v znamenju koncertiranja po večini Slovenskih klubov in festivalov. Izpostaviti gre MetalCamp, kjer so igrali z zvezdami svetovne Metal scene. Vabilo na koncert je prišlo tudi v okviru organizatorjev festivala NeoFest, ki se je odvil v Banja Luki. Avgusta 2008 je bas kitarista Andreja zamenjal Iztok Kuzma (ex Wrong). Trenutno pa se skupina pripravlja na izdajo prvenca.
