GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ It's Official - Aria Is Releasing 'seeds' Our First Ep On November 29th
Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Sep 16 2012, 03:55 PM
Guys! I am incredibly happy and eager to announce that after almost 3 years of work, my band Aria is releasing the first official recorded material! A 6 song EP, called 'Seeds'. The release concert will happen on the 29th of November, in Bucharest and after that we will most probably start a tour in Romania, somewhere during February/ March.
The whole artwork will be ready next week hopefully, so I will have some previews for you guys

This is very cool!!!! I am looking forward to hear it! 
Oh yeah I got confused at first! In Russia there is band called Aria they just copied Iron Maiden they use to be famous... So I though you are playing with them!
P.S. Like your band much better!

Thank you very much gentlemen!! I will keep you updated with the whole deal
But in the mean time, to answer vonhotch's question, we're working with Romania's most esteemed graphic artist (in the field of band artwork) his name is Costin Chioreanu and you can check out his stuff here: http://twilight13media.com/ He will also produce our first video.
More news coming soon

That's excellent !
Just reading his short Bio, it's inspiring to see another person who started with nothing but their passion. None of the proper tools due to lack of availability. He's stuck to one thing (his passion) and now he's producing his art for bands that he admired.

Indeed it is mate Well, he had an expo in NY alongside Tony Iomi's Bio release 
How cool is that? You get to expose your art while a rock legend releases a biography and you both share the audience!

One of my favorite bands The vocalists and lead guitarists are awesome Drumming is tight Couldn't hear the bass well, but, I guess that will be great too I am looking forward to it Cosmin

Oh gosh! I am so stoked !!
Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Sep 19 2012, 07:45 AM
Thank you gentlemen! At this point we are being extremely impatient and curious to receive the graphic artwork and the official script for the video! It's so awesome! I can't believe that this is happening after that epic talk I had with Cezar back in 2008 in the balcony of a hotel far in the north. We were going to see Victor Wooten at the Garana Jazz Festival - the biggest jazz/ fusion event in Romania and we stopped for a night in a city on the way. That night we were talking and we decided we should start a band together...we began work in 2010, gigged for the first time in January 2012 and now... the release is 2 months away!

Hey, i wouldn't agree that Russian Aria copied Iron Maiden , they are a lot more then that !!!
But Cosmin's Aria better !!!

But Cosmin's Aria better !!!
Thanks Slav! Trust me man, I had NO CLUE on the other band when we chose this name
Posted by: Ben Higgins Sep 19 2012, 10:30 AM
I think it's a great name and logo
Posted by: tonymiro Sep 19 2012, 11:35 AM
Happens a lot Cosmin, finding a good, original band name is pretty hard.
Posted by: thefireball Sep 19 2012, 12:04 PM
I think I did it when I came up with Analyzed Within. I never found it when I googled it. Still don't find anyone else but me.
Posted by: tonymiro Sep 19 2012, 01:27 PM
Yeah - I think names based on nouns tend to be the more problematic ones.
Posted by: Cosmin Lupu Sep 20 2012, 10:16 AM
Tell me about it Tony
IT TOOK US A WHOLE YEAR!!Indeed mate - uniqueness is a great advantage
Cheers to you for a good name and a good find
