WARATTAH is a metal band that was formed in Bordeaux in December 2005.
It was formed by Khris (guitar/vocals), who wanted to create the music which he wasn't able to express with his other bands.
After a few tests, the definitive lineup was found with Cyril (bass) and Xav (drums), musicians who each had both studio and live experience.
However, with the complexity of the vocal/guitar parts, Denis (guitar) was added to contribute the "wall of sound" needed for live shows, and also to because his soloing technique brings a new dimension to the band. The musical past of each band member has deliberately been omitted, in order to allow people to discover and listen to what WARATTAH does, with no preconceived opinion as to what they could be doing or could have done!
It is also an approach that is meant to be humble and honest.
At the end of April in 2006, a 4-song demo was recorded, and it was subsequently voted as "Demo of the Month" in the June 2006 issue of “Rock Hard magazine” and "Auto production of the Month" in the March 2007 issue of “Guitar Part magazine”. Other reviews have appeared in Metallian (issue#46), Guitarist Magazine (issue #198S), “Rock Tribune” (Dutch – issue#61) and in various webzines (see Warattah website).
WARATTAH is a metal band that holds nothing back, with raw vocals, technical drumming, powerful guitars and a grooving bass.
The main objective of the band will remain live performance.
Also, the video for "Fits of Rage" aired on MCM, MCM Belgium and MTV Pulse in 2007. In addition, a documentary on WARATTAH will air on Canada's "Schok Productions" and on Benelux's "S-Television".
The band is currently seeking French and foreign booking managers.
With respect and cheers!!!
