Urban Ego
alternative rock from
Austria |
my opinion:   |
One of Austria's most
exciting alternative acts, already gained massive
success at the past editions of Austrian
festivals "Forestglade" and "2
Days A Week". Their song "(Higher Than
the) Venus Sun" has been voted #1 on the
MTV-Undiscovered web site. There's a bright
future ahead, as the good songwriting and stage
act sets them one step ahead of other Austrian
bands. 
Urban Ego was formed in
1996 by songwriter Richie Sonix, lyricist Chris
Glenn and drummer Flow Freak. A year later they
entered an Austrian music competition, which
brought them the prestige of being Austria's best
newcomer band. In october 2000, they won second
prize in a contest organized by the well-known
German music video TV network VIVA.
