Alize - http://www.bahama.nl/alize
'Alize' is new, it's energy, it's soul, it's funk, it's all good and it
can
be yours too. Put the best ingredients of funk, hip hop, jazz, pop and
rock
in a blender and switch it on for a little while. The result is an
explosive cocktail that sounds like 'Alize'. You can call it music for
the
mind and the body and the soul, because it's got lots of pumping grooves
to
dance to, stuff to relate to and if you're up to it lyrics to think about.

added a layer that creates what is known as the VILE ORDER sound. By adding
guitarist Jimmy Shaddix, there has been a new groove added to the VILE
ORDER scene. With their insane live performances and head banging licks,
these musicians kick up a lot of dust wherever they take the stage. While
the upcoming EP (Object Of Obsession) showcases the band’s explosive
musical growth and talent, VILE ORDER remains committed to maintaining the
brutal live performances they have become known for.
