Straighten Things Out

Ayoun : Kevin guitar : singing, Jérôme guitar : Liam bass : drums
Trained in 1999 by 4 young musicians under the name Fast4Ward, the band devotes its first three years to shooting in the Marseille region and recording 2 demos (the eponymous in '00 and State of Mind in July '02 with new drummer and guitarist) for a total of 6 tracks. They will have the opportunity to open for Satanic Surfers during this period. They come back in the summer '03 with a first EP entitled The Bright Side of Things but again there are linear up problems and the troupe is paralyzed by the absence of a drummer.
Determined to continue their journey and come out of the new, they asked Graham Churchill (Belvedere , Thirty Nights of Violence , The Hollywood Ending ) to record the drum parts of a new album. The latter accepts and the recordings take place in autumn '05 (with Christian Carvin, the CD Dawn of a New Hope only released in summer '06 on the young Japanese label Bells On Records ). Then in the fall they start a tour with Liam Quinn of the Dancunian band Durai who becomes more or less their official drummer on paper. Straighten Things Out manages to turn a little in spring '07 and then focuses on the composition of a new opus whose recording is planned for spring '08.
