Bio
A true trio that doesn't care about the musical boundaries. Aides consists of three guys who mix together their
influences from rock, ambient, punk,indie, metal and jazz backgrounds.
Aides' music is full of energy and intelligence - whether they are pumpin' the crowds with heavy riffery & drumming
or with jazzy and atmospheric interludes and jams.
The unique and unheard style has allowed Aides to share the stage with a number of world class artists - Alice
Cooper, Foreigner, Franz Ferdinand etc. They have been placed in more genres by the Estonian music press than any
other band in Estonia - they've been called the "sons of Estonian post-rock", the "inventors of the so called
intensive rock" or "the most promising band in the Estonian alternative rock scene". There are recognizable
influences from Muse, Porcupine Tree, Radiohead and many-many others.
These statements are best to show the variety and elusivness of different styles that have been mixed, but can
never describe what this group really is.
Aides as a live band is known for giving their maximum every time and trying to make every performance unique -
whether it's performing with a string orchestra, designing one-off video installations or staging Orwell's "Animal
Farm" during a live show.
The band has gathered one of the most impressive fan followings among the Estonian people in all ages and are one
of the most anticipated performers in Estonia currently. At the moment Aides is recording their debut album which
is set to be released in May 2010.
