Activities: May 2005 was made conditional on a new “barrier” been born in people minds and its “defence” from cruel social reality equalizing each person till insignificant gray mass. This “barrier” and “defence” is now represented by a new neo-thrash/metalcore quintet TENT. And that was made for the reason, because you know the name of the band can be interpreted exactly like that. The textual component of the band is deeply social and political, which is calling us upon for taking a modern look on problems of today. That is what the band members say: “Tent- is the barrier between the cruel daily routine, full of negative, trying to get into our souls, and in people souls. Tent creative work – is a solid substance, protecting our generation and, because of social textual component, guarding from surrounding reality influence. We are not calling upon to change the world, we don’t have slogan-songs, we just try to make our listeners understand our emotional experience, our view on the problems, appearing by the way in front of all of us”. From the very beginning the band had a good start and in 2006 an EP «10$» (Sound Age, 2006) was released. Less than in a month, in 2007 Tent lands up a contract with independent record label «Mazzar Records», where in the same year they release a new, full-grown, debut album «XXC» (Mazzar Records/Mystic Empire, 2007), and full-sized video on a song “Learn to Hate” which was made by «Extreme Vision» studio as well. Now TENT was nominated on RAMP 2007 in “The discovery of the year”, “Video of the year”, “Hit of the year” nominations. A bit later, TENT presents a second video on a song “In Crimson Tones”, which gets in rotation on A1(First Alternative Music Channel) and ,as the previous work, is now nominated on RAMP 2008 as “Video of the year” and “Hit of the year”. While touring and playing shows TENT take part in EMMAUS festival together with our famous bands, doesn’t walk around the COLLISIUM forum, and also share the stage with BORN FROM PAIN in year 2008, still having the idea of making songs for a second full-sized album. To record this opus the band spent all summer in the studio, wasting lots of power and energy, because, as the band members say, the recording was under way on the edge of full physical and moral exhaustion. “All Roads Lead To Hell (AD)” – is the name of the second album of TENT. It consists of 9 songs, each of them embodies one of 9 rings in hell. These are 9 roads unchangeably leading to one destination… 9 true stories, weaved of soul reflections, emotions and feelings of our generation. A great number of different people took part in recording the album, real professionals, such as “ Mazzar rec., Astia Studios (Fi), Anssi Kippo, Sergey Lazar, Sergey Dark, Ruben (Evil Sound), Aleksandr Shaligin, - the band thank them from all their hearts for their work. In a result everything turned out brilliant, and everyone will soon have chance to make themselves sure in that, because the concerts activity take place not only in Moscow, but is spreading, opening new cities of Russian Federation. TENT is planning to get the ball rolling on the 9-th of October in Moscow club “PLAN B”, where all the roads , leading to hell, will come to one point, painted in crimson tones with melodies and power, which all heavy music fans ,all over the country, will have chance to appreciate at its true value.
