  • Bio

    ........ ........ .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... Established in the end of 1996 the long standing Lithuanian alternative heavy rock band MOUNTAINSIDE is well known for its original and unorthodox style, driving live performances and skepticism towards the music industry. The band is also active in Lithuanian rock scene: drummer Karolis runs recording studio, guitarist Sharas organizes festival MountainRock and with a help from basist Rytelis maintains the only Lithuanian rock oriented news portal mountainrock.lt (..www.mountainrock.lt..). Considered to be one of the most diverse bands in Lithuania MOUNTAINSIDE five years in a row earned a nomination in the Lithuanian Alternative Music awards in the category of the Best Lithuanian Rock/Metal Band in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. In 2007 was also nominated in the category Best album of the year One of the busiest bands in Lithuanian underground MOUNTAINSIDE every year play lots of driving 100% rocknroll performances in Lithuanian and foreign clubs, pubs, big and small open-air festivals and other places. MOUNTAINSIDE shared the stage with such bands as TITO and TARANTULA, NEW MODEL ARMY, ENTOMBED, DISMEMBER, THE BONES. Over the years the band gathered a com.mitted pack of fans, and this culminated in the establishment of the MOUNTAINSIDE fan club in March of 2001. In early 2003 MOUNTAINSIDE released a long awaited debut mini album Distorted. The first pressing quickly sold out. In 2002 track Nepanikuok was included in compilation Euro.lt (Bomba records). In 2004 young Norwegian film director Fredrik Bryn has used several MOUNTAINSIDE songs for the soundtrack of the race-car movie that has been shot in Norway for Planet Freddie and released as a DVD. In April 2007 the second album "All About Time" was finally out and hit the shops. It is released by "ZONA Records" - the oldest indie in the Baltic States. By the end of 2007 singer Darius, due to the lack of time, left the band after spending 5 years in the MS ranks. At the moment band is playing in power trio format, pursuing heavier direction with harsh vocals and rather complicated song structures. The material for the new album is almost ready.
