“Venus” back then, covering mostly “HIM” songs. Later Greg and Man P,
decided to take the band to the next level with
a new name, “5 Sadows”, and with a new plan,
they started to compose their own songs.
The band had a name and some songs,
but there was an empty space, the band didn’t had
a personal sound, so Greg decided to keep the old fashioned
Fuzz distortion pedal and combine it with some Octave,
and the band used the Octafuzz distortion pedal
as a basic sound for the guitars, but the lyrics
were too sentimental for such a noisy guitar sound
and Greg decided to use some more melancholic and ominous keyboards.
The actual idea behind the band is the dark atmosphere
with lyrics that will make people think what is
Love and Hate, Life and Death, Dark and Light,
and take people to a beautiful journey though
the Gardens of “5 Sadows”.
