PUNISHER |
english version version espanol |
1998 Kybalion, Cassette (2004 LP)
PUNISHER war die Band um die Sängerin Andrea Eberon, die mit ihrem Bruder Adrian Eberon und
anderen Metal Kriegern an der absoluten True Metal Front kämpften. Ihre Schlachtengesänge sind
guter, rauher, traditioneller Metal, angeführt von der dunklen Stimme Andrea`s.
Die beiden hatten zuerst eine Band namens AGRESSOR, und viele Line up Wechsel. Als sie 1994
eine feste Formation bilden können, mit Pablo Sorado am Bass, und Sebastian Fafian an der Gitarre,
benennen sie sich in PUNISHER um. Zusammen nehmen sie 1995 ein 4 Track Demo auf.
Danach haben sie einen neuen Mann an der Gitarre: Miguel Garay. Mit ihm nehmen sie 1997 ein
2 Track Demo auf, von dem einer auch auf der "Nahuel I" Compilation landet.
1998 nehmen sie dann das volle Album "Kyballon" professionell auf. Dieses
kam damals leider nur als Kassette heraus.
Sie waren Teil der Bewegung gegen die etablierte Metal Presse, die leider nicht immer mit
fairen Mitteln kämpfte. Auf der sogenannten "Anti Cessar Fuentes trour" (gegen den grössten
Metal Medien Vertreter Cesar Fuentes), hatten sie z.B. Banner mit SS Runen in seinem Namen und
schwule Cartoons!. Die Lyrics sind natürlich alle sehr "True", und handeln von der Metal
Kameradschaft, dem Kampf des Undergrounds u.s.w. Diese Bewegung unterstützt
auch die kleinen Bands im Inland, und sie tourten auch in den entlegensten Ecken des Landes und
bis Paraguay und Bolivien. Eine beachtliche Leistung, denn selbst grössere Acts verlassen kaum
den Grossraum Buenos Aires.
Dannach geht Guray nach Brasilien und für kurze Zeit hilft Pablo Sanz aus Rawson in Patagonien
aus. Gerade als es mit der Band aufwärts geht, und die Rede von einem richtigen Album ist,
lösen sie sich Mitte 1999 auf! Nur Drummer Adrian hält noch zur True Metal Fahne, die
anderen werden alle christlich erleuchtet, und wenden sich alle total von der Metal Szene ab
(und das nach all den starken Sprüchen)!!
Im Jahre brachte das brasilianische Label "Dies Irae" in seiner "Latin Metal Classics" Serie
das Album 2004 als auf 330 Stück limitierte LP Sammleredition heraus. So können sich auch
Leute in anderen Ländern von ihrer Musik begeistern lassen. Die Musik ist sehr simpler, aber
abwechslungsreicher traditioneller Metal im NWOBHM Stil, natürlich mit spanischen Lyrics.
PUNISHER was the band around the front woman Andrea Eberon from the extreme True Metal front.
Their style was good rough traditional Metal with her dark voice. The lyrics were epic battle
songs from the Metal front in Argentina.
The siblings had first a band called AGRESSOR, which suffered many line up changes. When they
build up a steady formation in 1994, with bass player Pablo Sorado and guitarist
Sebastian Fafian, they changed the name into PUNISHER. Together they recorded the first
4 track demo in 1995. Later they changed the guitar player and Miguel Garay joined. Together they
recorded a 2 track demo in 1997, and one of them was also released at the "Nahuel I" compilation
In 1998 the full album "Kyballon" was professionally recorded. This was sadly only done as
cassette.
With the underground movement against the established Metal magazines they were closely
related, but they sometimes fought with unfair means. For example at the so called
"Anti Cessar Fuentes tour" (against the biggest Metal media man Cesar Fuentes), the had banners
with SS runens in his name and homosexual cartoons!
The lyrics were of course absolutely "true", about the Metal brotherhood in the underground
e.t.c. This movement supported also all the underground bands in the countryside and they toured
all over Argentina and till Paraguay and Bolivia. Normally most of the bands just play around
greater Buenos Aires.
Later Guray went to Brazil, and for a short time Pablo Sanz from Rawson in Patagonien helped
at the guitar. Just when it went better for the band, and when there was talking about a CD
release, they split in 1999! Only drummer Adrian still holds the Metal flag up high, and the
others became radical Christians!! This is really strange after all there efforts and strong
words about the Metal brotherhood (but I still thank you for everything guys)!!
In the year 2004 the brasilian label "Dies Irae" at their "Latin Metal Classics" series, finally
released the album as limitied LP edition with 330 copies. Now people in other countries
can listen to their music. The style is simple, but diverse traditional Metal, like NWOBHM,
and of course with spanish lyrics.
