Details:
Although Wicked Article began in 2003, it's members have been at it for a long time. Cristobal Perpiñá was a founding member of Seguridad Social, one of the biggest bands in the Spanish Rock Explosion of the 80s with hits like"Come Ranas", touring extensively throughout Europe and South America. Dani Moure, Dai Berenguer and Gorio Torres have respectively led bands like Maledicta, Ambuka Doral and Mafarka - vital references in the local music scene in Valencia, Spain - and have won various competitions and played massive festivals like "Festimad" in Madrid, etc. The band stands out in their home country as one of the few who sing in "real" English making them a top-notch export.

From the very first rehearsal everything ran smoothly. There and then four songs were written that would appear in Wicked Article's first, self-produced, 5-track EP. Since then the band has recorded their first full-length album "The Calm before the Storm". Produced by Manolo Tomás (personal assistant to super producer Rick Rubin) (Recorded at Mojave Studios (Valencia), RPM Studios (Valencia) and Studios 54 (Valencia), mastered by Manolo Tomás and Jorge Vivo assistant engineer at Chartless, Malibu, CA. This 10 song album is both, raw and solid - full of inspired song writing and musicianship and certainly kicks serious ass. Right now they are readying what will be their next album where their music is taken to the next step sounding tighter than ever.

As yet unsigned to any label, the new album is set for official release in late 2009 with extensive national distribution and global digital availability. At present WA are getting ready to tour throughout Spain to promote The Calm before the Storm taking their Hard Rock across the country and creating addicts everywhere they play. Once you see them, you just can't get enough and have to see them again! Wicked Article are stalwart survivors in the trenches of rock.
