HISTORY

THE FOUNDATION OF ASTROSMASH ORIGINATED IN 2001 AFTER THE BREAKUP OF THE LOS ANGELES-BASED HEAVY METAL BAND TENITUS. MIKE CHAVEZ AND DAN WANTED TO CREATE NOT JUST A BAND, BUT A COLORFUL, COSMIC, SUPERNATURAL MUSICAL EXPERIENCE. THEY HAD THE CONCEPT, ALL THEY NEEDED WAS A NAME. MANY NAMES WERE CONSIDERED, BUT NONE SEEMED TO CAPTURE THE IDEA OF THE BAND. THEN, WHILE BRAINSTORMING ABOUT 80'S MEMORABILIA, IT CAME IN A FLASH: INTELLIVISION....ASTROSMASH! DAN AND MIKE LOVED THE CLASSIC VIDEO GAME SYSTEM, SO IT WAS PERFECT TO BECOME THE WORLD'S ONLY INTELLIVISION TRIBUTE BAND.

AFTER STRUGGLING TO FORM A FULL BAND, DAN DECIDED TO MAKE THE INTELLIVISION MUSICAL NOTE THE BASIS OF THE MUSIC AND KEEP THE BAND A DUO WITH NINO REBELLE ON VOCALS. THE GROUP RELEASED THEIR FIRST ALBUM ATLANTIS IN 2006 AND SINCE THEN HAS RELEASED VARIOUS ALBUMS AND SINGLES. THEY CELEBRATED THEIR TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY WITH THE DOUBLE ALBUM SAFECRACKER COMPILING DEMOS, UNRELEASED, RARE AND NEW SONGS FROM 2001-2011.

IN 2012, NINO HAD TO LEAVE THE GROUP DUE TO SEVERAL PERSONAL ISSUES. DAN HAS NOW TAKEN OVER THE VOCALS AND IS TAKING ASTROSMASH IN A WHOLE NEW DIRECTION.
