Between rock and post-hardcore, Holding Sand has been growing up pretty fast since 2007. Their music can be defined as a mix of powerful riffs and catchy melodies, carried by their unwavering energy and a massive sound.\nAfter they released their first EP "Ebb & Flow" (2009) greeted by the critics, and went on a promising national tour of more than 30 dates, Holding Sand got a fifth member and put out their new 5-tracks "On Sleepless Nights" in 2010. It was recorded by David Potvin (One-Way Mirror, Lyzanxia, Sexypop...).\nThe quintet took things up a notch when they unveiled the music video for the song "On Sleepless Nights" (directed by Benjamin Cappelletti : My Own Private Alaska, Sidilarsen...) and the single "The Future Belongs to Heartless Whores" directed by their singer Clément Horvath.\nThey quickly put a 25-minutes long documentary about the band online, called "Holding Sand : Inside", and launched on february 2011 a 6-episodes web-serie about their lives on tour called "The Holding Sand Chronicles", before hitting the studio again in april.\nAfter the success of their two first EP's, the band released their first album "Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid" in january 2012 through M&O Music. It is available for digital download and in european, american and japanese stores.\nThe music videos for the singles "Bound To Go Wrong" and "Float" helped the band promote their new delivery and got them back on the road for a new national french tour in spring 2012. A documentary about the tour was released shortly after, on the band's youtube channel : youtube.com\u002Fholdingsandmusic.\nIn late 2012, the band started to write their next album. Cyril Faichaud replaced Matthieu in 2013 and the band also changed its historic drummer Pierre for Quentin Dabouis. The group also chose to leave M&O and planned to release the next album on their own.\nThey back got back in studio in Paris in the summer of 2014 with Francis Caste (AqME, Bukowski, Kickback ...). The concept album "A Life Worth Memoirs" was released on February 23, 2015, and tells the life, sickness and death of a fictionnal character throughout its three chapters. The first single, "Hell-Bent", got a music video directed by the band's singer. The character is depicted on the cover is in fact a close friend of the band members, that they met at the release party of the first EP in 2008, and who has been of great help ever since. \n--------------------------------------\nRock One (FR): 8 \u002F 10 – “They’re gonna get huge !"\nMetalorgie (FR): Discovery of the month – “On Sleepless Nights” is good, real damn good !"\nAlternativ News (FR): "Holding Sand has all the influences needed to seduce us (...)
