Biography: Pollution was born from the passion of five guys for music and hard rock. After existing for a few years as a occasion of fun, we reach the present line-up in 2002. The world of live music is the one that's best for us in which we can express our best and touch the pubblic's interest, also thanks to the use of scene effects. Our hard rock was influenced by different type of music, that mix together, such as rock, blues and more “heavy” sound. We recorded 2 self-produced demos in 2003 and 2005, and an EP last year. This is one is promoted by our booking-promotion agency called Bologna Rock City (http://www.myspace.com/bolognarockcity ), by which we’re in collaboration since April 2008. Up till now we’ve collected many live experiences in our region (Umbria) and in other regions. In November 2007 we have partecipated to the national contest "Rock Contest 2007", in which we were selected between more than 800 bands from all Italy and we arrived to the semifinals where we played at Viper Theatre of Florence in front of more than 700 people. We have also received the "Best Live Act" award and third place at Unimusic Live 2007, and we were one of the semifinalist bands at Italian Wave 2008. But it’s thanks to the collaboration with the well-known Bologna Rock City that we had and still have the opportunity to play a lot around Italy, both alone and as a support of famous bands, in front of a great public. Our last great gigs include opening act for: Hardcore Superstars in June, Babylon Bombs in October, White Lion in November, M.ill.ion's italian tour (headliner of the Sweden Rock Festival 2002) in December. Next month, in April, we will play with Jeff Scott Soto, and in October we'll be the opening act for Y&T and Firehouse (tba). Moreover we will play at Summer Rest in Sleaze Festival 2009 or in the winter edition in January 2010, in Norberg, Sweden (festival in honor of deceased Crashdiet singer David "Dave" Lepard). We're also writing new songs, and soon we'll record a new cd in collaboration with an italian producer..so stay tuned for more informations and gigs!!!
