WC was born in New York City during 2003. The band chooses the controversial name "WC" in an effort to contradict the glamorous and fashionable situation flooding the world of modern music.
On July 2007 Sterling Sound in New York chooses WC's "Ashes" to be featured on "Sterling Sound's emerging artists player" an honour that places WC among the best newcoming bands worldwide.
Their debut album "WC" is released by Legend Records on December 10, 2007 throughout Greece and Cyprus.
The initial line up (2003) consisted of Wastor (Vocals, Guitars, El.Violin), Amanita (Drums, Vocals) and bassist Kevin Hummel. During the following 2 years they colaborated with various bands and performed in various clubs around the NYC area including CBGBs and the Barracuda. The band's sound during that time was heavily inspired by the nu-metal and industrial-metal scene. They recorded a four song promo CD that included "Mr. Pink" a song that attracted the interest of Daniel Glass of Artemis Records, one of the largest independent labels in NYC.
2005 finds Wastor and Amanita returning to Athens Greece, while they begin recordings for their first album in the Greek language. The band's sound evolves towards a darker Gothic sound and they release the song "Ou Foneyseis" ("Thou shall not Kill") featuring Georgia Kefala (Mple) on vocals, and their first video clip "A.M.Y.M" directed by Constantine .
WC's aggressive sound along with their heavily inspired by gothic imagery stage image, attracted the interest of L. Mahairitsas (a Greek platinum selling singer). The result of WC's collaboration with L.Mahairitsas was the song "Falaina", released by Minos-EMI Greece, and presented live in Thessaloniki, on a show aired on "NET" (National Greek Television) that watched more than half a million people.
In February 2006, WC return to their initial trio form, with the addition of Johnny Ray on el. bass, a position that later will be taken by Manos "Elfman"
WC's debut album "WC" released Dec 20, 2007 and is a "bi-lingual" album having versions of their songs both in Greek and in English. Within 2 weeks WC hit the Greek charts while the media praises its release in their critics. Their video clip for "Ou Foneyseis" will be nominated for best video of the year 2008 (category: alternative) by MAD TV (Greece's biggest music video TV network).

Well, it took us more than it should but usually good stuff needs their time. Bad stuff too.
So, almost 4 months after 'never understand' here is our new track called 'slowly beating heart'. During this time period we recorded many many songs that we could upload on our player but this is the one that could stand next to 'never understand' and make a horrible couple with it ...It is characterized by the same cheesy production, the same heartfelt cliche lyrics and the new/dark wavish dancefloor sound that will make your local dancefloors burn like chicken soup.
It's on the top of our player, hope you'll like it and if you do please let us know about it! ;-)
Thanks for the add! Sending you our wishes for continued success in all your journeys. All the best .. :)
