about
Moonloop was born in 2001 as a way out to all the influences that Juanjo Martín, Raúl Payán and Eric Baule had. Those were Death Metal, Progressive Rock and many more, so they jammed toghether until first songs were born with Juanjo singing initially, and then Eric a few months later. They played their first gigs at the Guitar Player Club in Barcelona and recorded their first demo titled “Things can Change” with Carles on bass guitar, but several style disagreements followed his departure at the beginning of 2002. At the same time, Eric recorded a solo album (with the same title of their first demo), wich had Moonloop songs and new material that determined the band’s personal concept. Eric also covered Porcupine Tree’s “Pure Narcotic”, wich was included two years later in a P.T. covers website (www.fusethesky.com). In 2003 new songs were written for their third demo while a lot of rehearsals were done with a few bass players. Constant problems with their rehearsal room forced the situation to change it for a best one, with a recording room in it, so the band bought some new material and began to work hard for the recording sessions. While looking for a bass player they met Jordi Ricol (also known as “Syd Barretina”) and played together as the support act for an Anathema gig in Barcelona’s Razzmatazz 2 on June ’04. Jordi joined Moonloop since that show as their definitive bassist. Two cd singles were distributed for free at Moonloop shows with cool reviews on musical press
