Biograhie de
Tout commence en 1999 à Marseille, le quintet se rencontre suite à la séparation de 3 groupes : « X-Krutia » ancien groupe de Roswell, « Melting Point » avec Staif, Greg et Candice et « Shockwave » dont Guillaume était le batteur.
C\'est conservant le nom de « Melting Point » que les futurs Eths donnent leur premier concert à Draguignan pour la Fête de la musique...
Après ce concert et sous la pression du temps, ils doivent se trouver un nouveau nom durant l\'été afin d\'être fin prêt pour honorer la promo faite par le collectif \"Coriace\" ce qui leur permet de se faire une petite notoriété.
Dès lors, le groupe se renomme \"Hets\" mais vu que cela signifie \"hétéro\" en anglais, il décide de remodeler le nom en Eths.
C\'est en 2000 qu\'Eths sort une démo de 7 nouveaux titres sous le nom d\'\"Autopsie\", qui reflète bien plus l\'image du groupe que leur 1ère démo éponyme de 2 titres, c\'est-à-dire une voix transcendante, schizophréne accompagnée d\'un son lourd sur une ambiance bien noire.
« Samantha » un nouvel EP de 6 titres voit le jour en Septembre 2002 et frappe encore plus fort...
Une tournée monstrueuse en 2003 accompagne sa sortie, le public accroche, grandit de plus en plus, Eths remplit les salles et marque les esprits.
Aprés plus de 200 dates à leur actif, les marseillais gagnent en expérience et confirme en live, mais quelque chose leur manquait encore...un « vrai » album du groupe.
Ca sera chose faite avec « Sôma » sorti en Septembre 2004 aprés avoir signé chez Sriracha Records, album réservant quelques surprises comme le morceau « L\'Instant Sourd » entièrement parlé dans une ambiance plutôt inquiétante, glauque et oppressante ou « Ailleurs c\'est Ici » en hommage à leurs idoles de Lofofora et autre « Méléna » d\'une pure violence ne laissant aucun répis à l\'auditeur...
Eths a toujours prôné sa différence par un métal tirant vers un néo-hardcore aux textes souvent violents (qui furent d'ailleurs censurés à une époque) mais soyons objectifs, leur histoire ne fait que commencer, quelque chose me dit qu\'elle aura encore de beaux jours devant elle et ca rien ni personne ne pourra les arrêter...

Biography

While they play around with the infectious grooves of reggae and Latin music and the heavy deliverance of hip-hop and rock, San Diego's hard rock four-piece P.O.D. defined a universal message. They're born-again Christians and such a thing is central in their music. They're not entirely classified as a Christian band though. Let that be known.
Formed in 1992 in the SoCal neighborhood of San Ysidro, Marcos (guitar) and Wuv (drums) relished in the music they grew up on. San Ysidro or "Southtown" was a multi-cultural area, but working class. While Marcos and Wuv were fond of their jazz and reggae roots, they were young punks in the making. Both loved the gnarl of grunge and took to liking of Green Day, Pennywise, Bad Brains, and the Vandals. They got a band together, P.O.D. (short for "Payable On Death"), with Marcos' hip-hop MC cousin, Sonny, and aimed for something real. Cleveland native Traa joined in 1993 and P.O.D. was on the map.

Throughout the 1990s, P.O.D. played countless shows across the nation and sold more than 40,000 copies of their three homemade EPs -- Brown, Snuff the Punk, and P.O.D. Live -- on their own Rescue Records. Atlantic Records was intrigued by the group's hard-working ethic and their passion for music, inking a deal with P.O.D. in 1998. The Warriors EP preceded the major-label debut of P.O.D.'s 1999 release The Fundamental Elements of Southtown. "Southtown" and "Rock the Party (Off the Hook)" were powerful singles, pushing the album to go platinum. P.O.D. earned top honors for Best Hard Rock or Metal Group, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year for "Rock the Party (Off the Hook)" at the 1999 San Diego Music Awards as well. A year later and the buzz still going, P.O.D. hit the road with Ozzfest 2000 and shared dates with Crazy Town and Staind for the MTV Campus Invasion tour. They also ventured into films, contributing several songs to various soundtracks. "School of Hard Knocks" proved successful in the Adam Sandler comedy Little Nicky in 2001, whereas additional tracks featured in the Al Pacino sports-thriller Any Given Sunday and Ready to Rumble maintained P.O.D.'s growing status. A second album for Atlantic, Satellite, was recorded with Howard Benson in spring 2001. Benson captured the magic once again, for P.O.D.'s stature exploded later that year, hot on the heels of the spiritual chaos of debut single "Alive." "Youth of the Nation" scored again, for P.O.D. positive mix of hip-hop, reggae, and hardcore punk defined a different kind of rock next to the likes of Kid Rock, Limp Bizkit, and Korn.

Biography

Although she was initially viewed as yet another face in the late-'90s crowd of teen pop acts, Pink quickly showed signs of becoming one of the rare artists to transcend and outgrow the label. Born Alecia Moore on September 8, 1979, in Doylestown, PA (near Philadelphia), Pink received her nickname as a child (it had nothing to do with her later shade of hair dye). She grew up in a musical family and by age 13 was a regular on the Philadelphia club scene, first as a dancer, then as a backing vocalist for the local hip-hop group Schools of Thought. At 14, she began writing her own songs; the same year, a local DJ at Club Fever began allowing her on-stage to sing a song every Friday. Pink was spotted one night by an executive for MCA, who asked her to audition for an R&B group called Basic Instinct; although she got the gig, the group imploded not long after. She was quickly recruited for a female R&B trio called Choice, which signed to L.A. Reid and Babyface's LaFace label on the strength of their demo; however, they too disbanded due to differences over musical direction. During Choice's brief studio time, producer Daryl Simmons asked Pink to write a bridge section for the song "Just to Be Loving You"; impressed with the results, Pink rediscovered her songwriting muse and an equally impressed L.A. Reid soon gave her a solo deal with LaFace.
Pink recorded her solo debut, Can't Take Me Home, with a variety of songwriting partners and dance-pop and R&B producers. Released in 2000, the album was a double-platinum hit; it spun off three Top Ten singles in "There U Go," "Most Girls," and "You Make Me Sick." She toured that summer as the opening act for *N Sync, but soon found herself tired of being pigeonholed as strictly a teen act, despite her sassy, forthright persona. As she set about working on her follow-up album, Pink took part in the remake of Patti LaBelle's "Lady Marmalade" featured on the Moulin Rouge soundtrack, which also featured powerhouse divas Christina Aguilera, Mya, and Lil' Kim. The song was a massive hit, topping the charts in both the U.S. and U.K. Toward the end of the year, Pink released her next single, "Get the Party Started"; it became her biggest, most inescapable hit to date, climbing into the Top Five. Her accompanying sophomore album, M!ssundaztood, quickly went double platinum; it boasted a more personal voice and a more eclectic sound, plus heavy contributions from ex-4 Non Blondes singer Linda Perry, who helped bring some more rock muscle to Pink's sound (as did guest appearances by Steven Tyler and Richie Sambora). M!ssundaztood attracted positive critical notices as well, and its second single, "Don't Let Me Get Me," became another fast-rising Top Ten hit. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
