King Drive

Jeroen Bas/Vocals Niels Guitars/Vocals Pim Drums As with most bands Jeroen and Niels got the idea of forming a band while they where at a gig. Both Niels and Jeroen practiced in the same studio with Jeroen playing in the thrash metal band Chained Messiah and Niels in Polydrone. After a few sessions to determine which way to go sonically the search for a drummer began and was found in Pim who has experience as a drummer in folk metal and hard rock. With the band complete the next step was to record a demo, First Spark. The band was aiming for a raw and live sound and chose to record every instrument at once, on a boat. This introduced some challenges but resulted in a gritty feel drawing influences from Fu Manchu, Kyuss, Red Fang, Black Sabbath etc.
