Band:

Barcode

BiografieThe band started out in 1995. They released their debut cd, ´Hard Jet Super Flash´, in 1997. The cd got really great coverage throughout the press. Most of ´98 went on with what the do best: partying and supporting AGF (their local football team) + an occasional rehearsal session and a few shows.

However, by August ´98 gravity of reality made them realize that if this band wanted to make it a bit further than just ok, some adjustments had to be carried out. A real hard decision was to be made. Thus, on their knees, it could turn either way: a total split or a swift recruitment of new blood.

A new guitarplayer, Dr. Jay, was found and a new leadsinger, Butch. Butch has added a lot of full throat lungs to the band´s approach and obviously; tightness. Early ´99: intense rehearsing prior to the recordings of ´Beerserk´. Recordings and mixing took place during February/March ´99. In May ´99 Barcode played their first big international tour, supporting Madball on their "Look My Way" European tour.

Summer 2000 Barcode Appeared at Germany´s prestigious With Full Force Festival, alongside labelmates Disrespect.

2001: Originally, the new album ´Barcode Hardcore´ was scheduled for a late 2000/early 2001 release, however, massive bass & drum difficulties forced them to drop touring and songwriting and instead focus on auditioning bass and drum candidates. BUT, the wait was worthwile, ´cuz with new bass player, Snik1, and new drummer, Snick2, the unit is now stronger than ever.

Barcode´s new album "Hardcore" was released on the 15 th. of january 2002. Since then the band have recorded some covermaterial and toured.
