Five records are a true career, an artistical progression completely consolidated. And that's the case of Half Foot Outside, with albums released since 1998 in various record labels. They started back in 1995 in Pamplona, their debut being called "So called…", a punk-rock record close to the most melodic and poppy sound of the bands at the time. Their musical spectrum grew faster and was reflected in the roughness of "Paint red", a record full of complex and brilliant structures and melodies. But most of all, Half Foot Outside's musical capabilities were best shown on "New ad ideas" (Bcore, 2001), a stonishing record full of energy behind every break, every riff, every melody. After Hans leaving the band and being replaced by Brian Hunt , the guys from pamplona were back in 2004 with their most mature record to date, the most elaborated and bravest record they had ever made. "It's being a hot hot summer" (BCore, 04), showed strong rock music with their personal touch that makes us think of Superchunk and Dinosaur JR. mixed with Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Motorpsycho. A record inspired by a summer that many of us still don't want to see finished. After that and after hundreds of gigs, 2006 sees how the band gets again into the studio, this time with John Agnello (Sonic youth, dinosaur Jr, Bob Dylan)behind the mixing desk, released in June (Astro records) and having amazing reviews from the media and fans. "Perfect from the distance" is their best record ever!
