It must have been around December 2006 that Evolve first saw the light of day, but the idea existed long before.
Commitments to other bands alas postponed the beginning of this project.
Former members of “Uni-Fight”, Ravi Rao and Toon Gijssels( both on guitar )and Sam de Houwer( bass ), wanted to form a new band.
Inspired by bands as In Flames, Killswitch Engage and others they had grown beyond the aspiration of being “just another garage band”
and wanted to make quality music ,and God willing, share this with the world.
In need of a double-bass drummer and vocalist they started their search and first came along a possible drummer.
Stefan de Cnodder, retired drummer since the passing away of "Anti-body ", had just picked up playing the drums again and, out of the blue, got a phone call from Ravi .
He didn’t need a lot of persuasion and immediately signed in.
First rehearsals began around December 2006 and it was obvious that there was a certain chemistry going on.
All four members agreed that this was a winning formation and started to write hard rocking songs that can be appreciated by a wide variety of people.
After having written some songs it was time to bring in a vocalist.
After auditioning different types of singers in came Dave Simons
Also supplying the vocals in Band Marginal he had the necessary experience needed to complete the definitive sound of the band.
Finding a name for the band seemed a lot harder than we first thought.
After numerous discussions we settled with Evolve, which was one of the names we came up with in the first place.
We started playing a number off gigs and than decided to enrole the 25th aniversary edition of Aardschok's metalbash in 2008, and won the damn thing!!
We got a great prize from Aardschok , Studiotime !for wich we thank them a million.
Due to musical difference Evolve shortly after parted ways with vocalist Dave.
Replacing him with the mean vocals of Pieter Verpaalen ( ex-"Textures ", "Kill.Caress"( r.i.p. )
Whom delivered an enthused performance during late Decembers tryouts.
Now ready as they canbe : Evolve is driven to bring you their songs filled with shreddin..guitarriffs
,vocal outburst and solid bashing drumsound ,defining their true passion :making music that F....kin Rocks!
Having said all of the above:
If you get the chance, check us out at one of our shows.
Where planning on playing a lot this season ,
so be sure to check the roster for a gig near you .
Also, we posted a couple of songs ,using both the studio recordings we gained earlier and some material we mixed ourselves .
It might give you good example of what Evolve ..s Metal cappabillities are.
Take a listen ,hope you enjoy...
Greetz, Evolve
