  • Bio

    ASIDEFROMADAY was formed back in 2000. When practice started to pay off, the band recorded two tracks for a compilation in 2001. After this first studio effort as a new experience, the band decided to record their first release " Maieutics" in 2002. It consists in 7 songs of loud and harsh Hardcore with metal sound. AFAD started to do some shows in the east of France. After releasing "Maieutics", Charles (guitar) decided to leave the band for personal reasons. 2002 was perhaps the most important year in the history of the band, as AFAD is now a quatuor, the band decided to bring their sound to a new direction. In 2004, 4-tracks EP "Setting in motion" is recorded and discerning audience instantly appreciated the band's new approach. The band received good reviews and played more shows in France. It's now time for the band to record their first full-length, in 2005 born "Divine Proportion" (9 songs of modern Hardcore with a hint of sludge and stoner metal) the long awaited album received rare reviews by mainstream and specialized press. Supported by some amazing band such as Gojira, In 2008, the band is part of the "Falling Down Compilation" with Kylesa, Pelican, Amen Ra, Knut... with a previous track of the new album. 2009 is the year of the awaited come back of the band with "Manufacture Landscape", AFAD proved that they're now ready to bring their sound-landscapes to a much wider audience. Contacted by a Swiss label, "Manufactured Landscape" (CD/LP) was released September 22th 2008 on Division Records (Knut, Unfold, Kehlvin, Impure Whilelmina, Vancouver, Zatokrev, Unsane). After heating the road again in Europe (France, Germany, Czec Republic, Switzerland, Danemark, Norway,Austria...) and sharing stages with Baroness, Keelhaul, Knut or Russian Circles, Asidefromaday is now working on new songs...preparing the next release to come.
