"...kick-arse songwriting, sick riffage, and some of the slickest, fattest production to emerge from the Oz in years. This is a startling debut. Mature & powerful, Vanden have all the chops, & all the hooks.It wouldn't surprise me one iota if they are the next big thing."- Nick Snelling- Beat Magazine - Beat Magazine- Australia

Bio
Vanden
1. A young female artist, from Brett Easton Ellis best selling novel and screenplay, American Psycho.
2. A 5 piece Melbourne rock band
While Vanden the character, only plays a fleeting role in the novel, the band plan on doing the exact opposite.
Featuring members from previous Melbourne rock bands, Vanden are no strangers to the Australian Music Scene, and know all too well the trappings and pitfalls of the music industry. Having previous bands destroyed by lineup changes, taking time to get this right was an important motivator for the band. The band is 100% committed to becoming a big success overseas.
Fronted by lead singer, James Brown, VANDEN spent over 2 years writing and hit the decks to record the debut release with acclaimed producer, Forrester Savell (Karnivool, Full Scale, Helmet) in a private Melbourne studio in October 2005. VANDEN emerged 6 months later with 11 tracks that are simply awesome !
The hard-edged, driving rock, laced with big, memorable chorus hooks has gained the band immediate industry recognition down under. VANDEN are now working on some local and overseas prospects for the release of the tracks on a grand scale, including key sync deals.
VANDEN are also taking this new sound to the streets to give you a taste of things to come. With shows being confirmed across the country, the remainder of 2006 will be a busy time for the band at home, and an even busier time when VANDEN attacks US shores throughout 2007 and beyond !
