[edit] Band history

[edit] Early Days

The interest for Trigger’s yet rhythmic and accessible techno-metal had definitely awakened. Trigger was originally formed in 2002 by Kostas Lolis. Lolis long time friend, Kostas Nikolakis (Feelin’ Guilty), joined shortly after, and filled in as the guitarist/bass player, during the writing and recordings for the “Reflections” album. “It all started as a side-project” reveals frontman Kostas Lolis. Trigger released early 2005 their debut-album “Reflections”. Shortly after, guitarist Dimitris Mouzakis who played in the death-metal band Bleeding Daylight/Via Serpentis alongside Lolis joined the band as the drummer for some rehearsals. During this time, Trigger recorded several new songs with guitarist Thodoris Tsilianos (Tumult) helping out the band. Also in 2005, Trigger collaborated with the hip-hop band Professional Sinnerz and cut the track “Throwaway”. The song also featured on a DVD for the Street Attack magazine beside other Trigger tracks.

After several changes in the line up, in the spring 2006 the puzzle was completed with Manos Mylonas (bass) and Kostas Chief (drums) filling up the places. And this time it seems that a more collaborative route developed. “It was a little strange to have other people involved in the process because I can be very protective of the music," admits Kostas. "In the past, it was very difficult for me to let other people participate because it was such a special, private and personal experience for me. Now, for the first time, we have a group of five people who have the same vision, share the same tastes and dreams. And it's amazing because we all work so well together."

In addition to be completed as a line-up, Trigger has undergone a musical transformation as well. But in order to move forward some things had to be left behind. And that was not so easy. In some ways it was the birth of something new and the death of something old. Progressive, multi-tracked passages, full of thematic ideas, “We had to focus on new musical landscape”. Now all band member’s are involved in the process of the song writing than it was in the past.

The results are transparent. The new song “Friend” is a dynamic, energetic driven song with infectious performance of each one of the band member’s with an’ anthemic chorus, that shows the renewal of the band getting to new higher levels.

Trigger’s music can be described as “Bang your head music”. Prepare to pull the Trigger!!!
