Demolution - The Dutch Nirvana Tribute

"With the lights out, it's less dangerous". Who doesn't know any of these words? A tribute to a band that made the gunge famous and changed the rock music forever!

Coming from Horst aan de Maas The Netherlands, Demolution was formed in September 2003 for a sole gig. This became such a huge success that the band decided to

continue. The band has got 3 members: Rens Coenen (Dave), Luc Verdellen (Krist) and Richard Kleuskens (Kurt).

On December 27, 2003 Demolution gigs at the Undercover Festival in Beek (NL). Together with 4 other bands, Demolution is picked out of 35 demo's to fight for the title

"Best Dutch Tributeband 2003". This is the bands third gig as Nirvana tribute and they get the second place. Further a demo is recorded with 4 Nirvana songs.

This demo is received very well and within a short period of time a lot of copies have been sold.

Then the band decides to join up with booking agency "Tributeband.nl". This agency includes Dutch tribute bands like Action in DC, Gunz n' Rozes, Up The Irons and Parris. Demolution gigs a lot between Belgium and the entire north of The Netherlands. In Friesland (Dutch county) the band is being filmed and broadcasted at "Omroep Friesland".

The band also plays "Nirvana Unplugged" in their hometown, which becomes a huge success. After that, Demolution gigs with well-known Dutch bands like, "The Sheer", "Face Tomorrow" and "Tacker".

In April 2005, Demolution gigs at the Megaland Tribute Festival in Landgraaf (NL), where the Pinkpop Festival is held each year. The band is personally announced by

Jan Smeets, the big boss of Pinkpop. In May, the band takes part in band battle "The Clash of the Coverbands". 800 bands have subscribed but only 200 can participate. Demolution wins the provincial final, which means they're up to the half finals at "013 The Choice" in Tilburg (NL). The band also gets a number 1 notation in the download

top 10 of "The Clash".

At the end of 2006, Demolution went on tour through the UK and performed 11 times within two weeks. The band performed in London, Leeds, Leicester and many more.

This became such a success that the band planned another tour in summer 2006 but unfortunately the band wasn't able to get back in such a short time. Although a couple

of venues already had been booked, the band decided to cancel this tour except for 1 gig in Rhyl. The band also performs for the second time in one of the most famous

venues in The Netherlands: 013 in Tilburg. The band also got the reputation for smashing guitars and drums at the end of the show, just like Nirvana did..

Experience the Nirvana grunge sound together with Demolution.....
