Miguel and The Living Dead

The beginnings of Miguel And The Living Dead date back to the summer of 2001. Nerve 69 began to record on his own as a one-man project in a home “studio” first songs like: „Salem’s Lot”, „Night Of Terror”, „Train Of The Dead” and few others. The band acts as a one-man project until the turn of 2002 / 2003, when musicians from Warsaw’s new wave band called Eva (R.I.P.) come with assistance. At first comes Slavik (voc.), the next ones are Killer Klaus (bass) and the drummer Niuniek El Diablo. The band starts intensive rehearsals during which they worked out old songs with the “live” band arrangement and also the new ones. In February 2004 first live appearance took place at the Old Skull party in Warsaw. In the meantime debut demo CDR was released. It contained five Nerve 69’s old tracks recorded with vocal participation of Slavik. This record receives a lot of enthusiastic reviews all over the world. In spring of 2004 the line up is completed by keyboardist Goozollini. The band plays several concerts over Poland and also does first appearance abroad (Punk Aid, Czech with The Damned and Sex gang Children among others). 2005 - release of debut album "Alarm!!!" on Strobelight Records. Lot of live shows across the Europe (Italy, France, Austria, Luxembourg, Czech, Slovakia, Germany...). In the meantime - new keyboard player: Burza. Miguel's songs also appear on compilations ("Gothic Magazine", "New Dark Age" vol.3, "Cold zine"). Lots of new press publications about the band (e.g. enthusiastic album reviews), some radio appearances. 2006 - another concerts in Poland & Europe (UK, Germany, Austria). New song "Lycantrophia" for compilation "New Dark Age" vol.4 recorded. Currently the band is working on new songs and still plays the concerts. 2nd album, which has a working title "Postcards From The Other Side" is going to be released at the turn of 2006/2007.
