Introduction:
Endo's rise to the big time started with their signing to the powerhouse management stable that is Concrete Management in late '99. After playing various local shows throughout early 2000 including opening for acts such as Powerman 5000 and Static-X, the band hit the studio to record their independent release, "Evolve V.30" which went on to hit stores in March. After continuing to grace the stages throughout the spring, June found them out in Los Angeles, CA working on a track with rapper Xzibit for the "Loud Rocks" album which was later released in the fall. But perhaps the best month of the year for the band was August when they signed a recording contract with DV8/Columbia and spent some time working with producer Ulrich Wild (Taproot, Static-X) re-mixing some of their tracks for radio play. As September hit, they took to the road on their first national tour with Nothingface and Amen and followed it up with some west coast dates alongside Machine Head, Nothingface and Nonpoint. Then, as the year ended  the world got arguably their first taste of what the group are preparing to let loose, when their track "Malice" showed up on the "Dracula 2000" Soundtrack, which was released in mid December and also featured new tracks from System Of A Down and Pantera. Now as 2001 begins to roll on, this Florida based four piece will be re-releasing their latest effort as "Evolve" through their new found label in March and will head out on the road touring for what is expected to be a long time to follow, evolving audiences across the country. - wookubus
