Fankàz was born on June 2003 to create their own Melodic – Skatecore-style songs. After many changes in the group's line-up, after friends' comings and goodbyes, the line-up is momentary settled: Ricky (guitar and vocals), Mora (bass and vocals) and Pole (drums). The band that inspires these tree guys to play is Belvedere, as all those bands that belongs to Skatepunk and technical hardcore scene, like This is a Standoff, A Wilhelm screm, BigWig, Strung out, Action men, Pendleton, Forus, SunEatsHouers, LagWagon, Venerea and so on.. Fankaz succeds to play often and on main stages, like Zoo Animal Sound, RockaFE (2004 and in the finals in years 2007 and 2008), Renfe, Rock Planet, Banale, Fermata23, Transilvania, Pelledoca, 500 rock club ecc. They record their first 4 songs-DEMO “What is..?” in Paolo Martorana's record-studio in Summer 2005, followed by a professional EP, recorded at Natural Head Quarter (NHQ) on July 2006: this one lets the band cooperate with Alkemist Fanatix Europe (Management and Booking). They take part to some Italian compilations like Akompilation vol. 3 (Akam Prod.), The explosion of punk vol. 2 (Pecci records), Notes-sk8rock connection and Berkley Dream compilation (Power90 records). Fankaz also gets some good national and international reviews (they can be found on www.myspace.com/fankaz). At last after a lot of hard work and thanks to the belief of some very good people, they sign on 12/09/2007 their first contract ever with Quick Flow Records. The recordings take part during October 2008 at West Link Studios at Cascina (PI); Alessandro Paolucci and Alessandro Sportelli did the production and the mixing, and Alan Douches did the mastering at West West Side Music (NY). On early 2009 Chri begins to play with the band (guitar and back vocals). Their first LP “Slow victims for fast predators” will be published on October 2009.
