From January/1995 on, this band has been going through the path which
must be crossed over. Since the beginning of the local scene in Belo
Horizonte, state capital of Minas Gerais, most Eminence members have been
riding along the underground ways. After several concerts throughout
the state and with a large number of contacts in Brazil as well as
abroad, the band got qualified to participate in a top countrywide music
contest, SKOL ROCK. Representatives from MTV, Warner Music and major
magazines and newspapers from the showbusiness gave the band the first place
in the state and third in the national key ranking, which caused great
impact. That is, considering the odds for a heavy and agressive band
among the majority of pop, blues and rock’n’roll bands that always get
special attention from the mass media in Brazil. Making independent
productions, promotion and much material give-away, the band played a tour
in Holland and Belgium, between september and december/98, getting a lot
of positive reviews. Going back home, a new album, Chaotic System -
CD, was created and then released and distribucted. Working hard on
promotion and touring, playing in festivals and supporting foreing bands,
the work got towards getting worldwide approach. Then, the license
agreement was set with Diamond Records to distribute Chaotic System in more
than 15 european countries. The line up brough the attention from the
media and audience over the countries where this band played before.
Besides the guitar and band founder Alan Wallace , EMINENCE has in its cast
the drummer André Márcio which played in another brazilian metal band
OVERDOSE.The album "Humanology"( 2004) is produced by Neil Kernon .
News: Brazilian extreme metallers EMINENCE will release their new album,
"The God of all Mistakes", via Locomotive Records on March 21 in Europe
and May 19 in the U.S. EMINENCE’s video for the song "Day 7" can be
viewed below. The track comes off "The God of all Mistakes", which was
recorded at Maquina Studios with producer by Tue Madsen (ROB HALFORD,
MNEMIC, THE HAUNTED). The mixing sessions took place at the Antfarm studio
in Århus, Denmark. Check out the CD artwork at this location. EMINENCE
recently recruited bassist TC, formerly of the band UDORA (the same
group that once featured in its ranks current SEPULTURA drummer Jean
Dolabella). EMINENCE’s most recent CD, "Humanology", was released in 2004
via Switzerland’s Timeless Productions.
