I believe that the beginnings of EOS are quite unclear. I could say that it began the day we decided to create our own songs instead of playing songs from Rush and other bands. Either someone could say that it began in the early 90s when we gathered to play for the first time. But I think we started when we even were not playing together. In the beginnings we were young schoolboys who shared the same musical taste and we exchanged the at that time scanty records from our favorite bands. Then, as the days went by, we learned to play by rehearsing the songs from our "idols" sharing the dream that maybe some day we will become good musicians. Therefore, the fact that we were gathering to play just for the pleasure of playing was only a consequence.

With the turning of the years, we grew as friends, in our musical taste and in our ways of playing. Also, the "rirtuals" that rehearsals were becoming were gaining intensity because to the 3 original members (Marcel Salazar, Bass; German Flores, Guitars and Rodrigo Andalaft, drums) two musicians were added (Gabriel Draper, guitars and Sebastian Hodar, Bass) leading to a continuos change of roles on guitars and bass.

Until that times the band played covers mainly from Rush, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Live and Hendrix. That situation lasted for 2 years until we became tired of playing the same songs again and again. Then Germán and I claimed for going to the next step: to compose our own songs.

The task did not seem easy. And it was not!

The first attempts were quite frustrating and we were getting inpatient. Unfortunately things were getting worse because Sebastian left the band due to his new bossanova and jazz styles and Gabriel quit because he wanted a straightforward guitar style.

Well, it has been a long time since we began this story. A lot of things have come and gone and we have tried to express them in some of our songs. Of course he have changed in many aspects but there is a thing that remains the same: We still share the dream that may be some day we will become great musicians
