Composing opposites, embracing change, defying comparison. That’s what their name is all about. It’s not just a mere contracted form of the question “What would have happened if Adam killed Eve?”, but the representation of a painful yet fascinating -and almost impossible- union between a melodic, hooking sound and violent shredding and screaming.
Adam Kills Eve’s strength lies in chemistry, as shown since the first practice sessions, way back in 2006, when the first songs began pouring out effortlessly. They soon began producing the first self-released demo called “SeaSons” with which they began touring around Tuscany and everywhere in Italy.
AKE kept playing each Italian venue they could throughout 2007 and 2008, and made themselves known for their energetic live performances. In the second half of 2008 the band enters the Bro Studios, in Turin, to record their debut EP, “They Almost Killed Us With Their Hypocrisy”: the EP was very raw yet full of ideas and set the basis for their sound to come.
AKE supported the EP with the live video for the single “Ready, Steady, Save The World!” and two italian tours. They also had the chance to open for a number of famous acts such as Alesana, Cancer Bats, Yashin, The Get Up Kids, Evergreen Terrace.
After a year and a half of touring they began writing the the new full lenght, the concept-album “The Interruption System”. Enlisting longtime friend Helio Di Nardo (The Electric Diorama) as a producer, the band adopted this time a more mature song construction, all the while maintaining their raw energy intact.
As of now the only original members remaining are Fred (scream/clean voice), Oscar (Drums) and Ste (Synth/Scream). Bugio (guitar) joined the band just before the first Italian tour.
With the addition of versatile newcomers Giovanni (clean vocals, guitar) and Alessandro (bass, clean vocals), both formerly employed as lead vocalists in other italian acts, Adam Kills Eve's lineup now boasts an impressive vocal firepower that enhanced their live performances right away.
The new-and-improved Adam Kills Eve debuted on the 4th of September 2011 at the I-Day Festival (featuring the likes of The Offrsping, Taking Back Sunday and Simple Plan) marking their first show in front of thousands, and not just hundreds of people.
Adam Kills Eve’s hopes are to reach every possible country, and to have fun with their friends live, before, during and after the show. They strongly believe that music is supported not just through social networks but through phisical contact with people. That is why the hope to make contact with you at a show, someday or the other.
Stay tuned for the upcoming release of “The Interruption System” due this winter.
