Generous Maria

rm of GENEROUS MARIA´s first fullength album titled “Command of the New Rock”. An album so good that it’s been said to “increase your s***m count and lower your IQ”. Then Lunasound suddenly gave up the ghost and was bought up by Abstract Sounds… the end result of the “problems” this resulted in was that the rights of the “Command of the New Rock” album were given back to the band. During all this GENEROUS MARIA managed to release a couple of songs on different compilations and even (self)release their first 7” vinyl single called “Crawl Back In”. GENEROUS MARIA found a new home when the “Command of the New Rock” album was re-released through the Belgian label Buzzville Records in January 2005 in an expanded edition (including four bonus tracks taken from various compilations and from the “Crawl Back In” single). In 2006, after among other things yet another European tour, there was another chapter added to the ongoing GENEROUS MARIA saga. It came in the form of a brand new album called “Electricism”. With this album the band managed to keep all those ingredients that makes the Generous Maria sound so unique and yet somehow also broaden their musical horizon in ways that both surprised old fans and won them a lot of new ones. And now it´s time for GENEROUS MARIA to deliver their 3rd album, entitled “III”, release by Transubstans Records. During these years, GENEROUS MARIA have developed a more clean sound, without giving up their original music. The band still delivers real strong tracks, influenced by the 70's hardrock scene, with incredible melodic hooks and a nod to the indie scene. As Classic Rock Magazine so wisely phrases it: “GENEROUS MARIA looks more and more like the reigning kings of super-groove.”
