Urban Vitamin seethed into existence in 2008. The corridors of the band’s history are contrived and many heads have
feltthecool end of a pike. But despite multifarious mutinies four members remain: Cobus Nigrini (vocals), Neville Botha
(guitars,programming and electronica), Rick de Villiers (drums, keys and vocals) and Cicero Carstens (bass).
In 2010 the band released their debut album, The First Time Hurts the Most, as a free digital download, which A Look Away
magazine (Feb, 2010) hailed as a ‘confluence of whispers and violence, or a handshake between a Tibetan monk and Mark
Wahlberg’. One year, scores of gigs and 2000 album downloads later, the music video for ‘Girls’ – UV’s party anthem –
premiered on MK’s Ondergrond.
The following 18 months saw the band blaze some of Gauteng’s biggest metal stages: Season Wither, Polarity Fest,
theZeplinsNew Year’s Party, and many more. In addition to the television success of ‘Girls’, the song regularly flooded the
cars andhomesof PukFM and TuksFM listeners.
Urban Vitamin released an EP "Agent Provocateur" in 2013, taking a noticeable change in overall sound and direction. A behind
the scenes video for the single "Sirens" was released in February 2013. The band shot a music video for "Philistine" in April
2013. « hide |
