Istoric trupa:

Twas a cold winter day in 2008, when Ovidiu Chihaia and Silviu Gherman decided to start up a band - Mes Quins, a synth-pop effort with disco overtones based in Bucharest, Romania. In his youth, Chihaia, a precocious guitar-player, had been part of various underground Bucharest acts (Pure, Guillotines and Hotel Fetish), thus enriching the band with valuable showbiz know-how, a skill that Gherman didn\\\\\\\'t have. Besides a passion for electronic sounds, Gherman had been acting in various TV commercials and writing books. In fact, Mes Quins\\\\\\\' very first concert was at a release party for Gherman\\\\\\\'s second book. Following such an explosive debut, gigs came and went rapidly for Mes Quins, until the two of them lost count and in the haze of such success hired a bass player (Adelina Amza) and a drummer (Ovidiu Rusu). At first, Amza said she took up bass guitar because she was tired of working in an office, but in the end, it seems the lure of corporate success won her over and she quit the band for a job overseas. Luckily, Rusu is still very excited about his drum pad and says he cannot wait to get off work to go pound the drums. Mes Quins have played gigs in most Bucharest clubs, opened for Namosh and Handsome Furs, and even took part in the Watumi Fringe Festival in Brasov, shocking the audience on every occasion with their overtly sexual image and a total lack of style to support it. Alas, style set its foot in this year, when the band\\\\\\\'s fruitful collaboration with director Miruna Boruzescu resulted in a music video extremely innovative for the Romanian market. Sexuality drips from each of the carefully-constructed frames of In The Land Of The Dead like honey from a jar. Gherman looks like a 70s porn star, while Chihaia shows off a lightning bolt on his cheek, a timid tribute to Ziggy Stardust. The video has been premiered on the Romanian MTV and a million other websites, and the band is currently thinking of sending it out in space as well, in hope of galactic domination.
