Common Sense were formed in September 1989.
In December 1993 they release the single Grotesque
and in December 1995 the LP Sun Comes Up.
Both these releases were very well-received by critics
and by fans of the independent Greek scene.
In January 2000 Sun Comes Up was included in the Pop & Rock
magazine list of the best Greek rock albums of the 1970-2000 period.
In 1993-1996 the band played in several festivals and they opened concerts for Dodgy (6/9/1995 RODON Club), Giant Sand (10/2/1996 RODON Club) and Tindersticks (8/6/1996 Lycabetus Theatre).
In May 2006 the band recorded the demo song "Time stood still"
with almost the same make-up. The demo song was released
on Dimitris Papaspyropoulos’ compilation "One Dream Closer" (EMI/Sony BMG).
In March 2007 they played with Marc Almond
and participated in the SoundWave contest. The band was voted
as Critics Choice 1 in the International Charts of the contest.
In October 2007 they played at the Cavern Club, Liverpool,
with Echo & The Bunnymen and Indigos.
In November 2007, three Common Sense songs were included
in Angelos Spartalis’ movie "The Apple in your Head", which was presented at the 48th Thessaloniki International Film Festival. Angelos Spartalis’ next movie, “The Snow-white Syndrome”,
which was awarded two prizes at the 49th Thessaloniki International
Film festival in November 2008, also featured three Common Sense
songs and one by Silent Sorrows, the side-project
of Nikos and Tatiana.
Common Sense (EU) finished recording material
for their E.P. "Time Stood Still" in December 2008.
The e.p. will be out shortly!
