* BIOGRAPHY
Imodium history started in 1999 in
Milano, Italy. They started playing indy grunge and recorded some
demotapes and singles that put the band into italian alternative music
scene. Then they started a serious live activity, that will cover in
short time many places of the nation. In 2001 they have been noticed by
Decibel Records, a indy label, that produced the first official
full-lenght Cd: "Imodium". A rough mixture of seminal punk/grunge and
noise/alternative. With this issue the name of the band started to be
known in the rest of Italy. Some songs appeared on samplers and on
alternative radio. After some troubles, Dave, the drummer, leaves
Imodium, been letting the place to Mirko. This is the currently line up
of Imodium. In 2003, was presented "Nowhere Ep", 4 tracks Ep. With this
Ep in their hands, the combo decide to intensify the rate of their shows.
In March 2004 they went at fear studio(one of the best studio in italy)
to record a new album, between emo and indierock, that was out only one
year later, because of searching new label. So from the first months of
2005 is out "...and so:dodgem songs!" on vacation house records,
historical italian label. Italian press is writing very good things
about this album, and is starting promotion in all europe! in the last
months, we found distribution all around the world and we play intensive
