Website updated;

TSOM it's one of the most important british bands of the alternative-80's, they'll back to Brazil to make a gig in Via Funchal in 2012.

Created in 1980 in England, the band started his career releasing singles with independent label. With their first album, FALAA (85), they become one of the most important names in the British Rock, thanks to a original and grim sound.


The CDs¹ after it, Floodland (1987) and Vision Thing (1990), helped they to make their even bigger in the whole world, including Brazil, were they played first time in 90.

Their sounds, it's a mix of post-punk, electronic sounds, industrial rock and even Hard Rock, this original mixture become a trademark and influent at the Rock.

Even, after 21 years without releasing a single album, they still doing live performances in festivals and their own gigs, travelling worldwide. They use to play tracks from the released albuns, and also few new songs.

In their 30 years of careeer, the band have many lineups, Always keeping the leader, the singer and composer, Andrew Eldritch. The Actual lineup include, beside Von, Chris May(Guitar)², Ben Christodoulou (Guitar)² and Simon Denbigh(KEYBOARD)³

¹ - Implying that they never released Floodland and Vision Thing in LP
² - Why in the world they decided to put the non-artistic names of Chris and Ben? it's that hard write 'Catalyst and Christo'?
³ - Srsly? Keyboards? Srsly? Just to you know guys, they aren't talking about the Macbook Pro Keyboard, they are talking about a Cassio Keyboard
