Short Summary

In a music world where everything falls apart,where no one can help a newcomer band but itself,this is a very good way to make our dreams come true.You are the fuel,we are the engine.The more you give,the further we'll get!!!We're Parthian Shot,an ascending prog metal band from Greece,a.k.a. "Metal,PhD" Squad,and we're here to stay!!!

You may ask yourself "Why to help THESE guys from Greece?What's so special about them?",and you won't be wrong to...
But,wait...here are some things we've done ALL BY OURSELVES,and we feel very proud of and we believe that you'll find them the least interesting;

1.We released,for FREE, 15,000 EPs via the May ’13 issue of Metal Hammer Greece, nationwide.
2.We covered Metallica’s “Disposable Heroes”, for a CD compilation, released via the December ’13 issue of the same magazine.
3.We were the opening act of the Fates Warning Athenian gig.We also opened for the underground Austrian prog legends,Mayfair.
4.Our lead guitarist, Chris Mike, signed with the famous CandyRat Records label, and already launched his first solo album on September ’13, worldwide
5.We took over the 2nd place,in one of the most highly acclaimed band competitions,powered by the F.Nakas Conservatory(one of the most famous in Greece),on April 2013
6.We’re one of the most versatile live acts in Athens, GR and we play in many gigs, sometimes in a weekly manner.On December '11, we became the one and only band in Greece,ever to perform a Queen tribute event,where we played for more than 2,5 hours in front of 500+ people!


What We Need & What You Get

So,after reading all the above,and you're still reading,that means that we somehow drew your attention.Let's now get to tha chase;

So far our EP,our merchandise,our rehearsals,our video clip and all about the band were funded by our own wallets;no one ever gave us a single penny.We play live,and we try to collect money to take the next step,10 years now.
Imagine,that we paid some thousands of euros to cut 15,000 cds,to give them for free with the Metal Hammer magazine,last May.
What we're asking about here is just a fuse.a fuse to push us to our next level,to be a band with an official release,saving this money for producing our debut and creating a promotion kit (merchandise,tour around our country for starters,making a new video clip),so we can come closer to a contract with a major record company and make our music distributed better than by ourselves,and of course getting some more odds to reach out all of you!
Also,you must not forget that we live in Greece,in a time of financial and cultural crisis.We need YOU to take the step further from our country's cultural misery.
  • The perks you see,is what you get.Some of the staff you'll get will come to you the soonest possible,but you must show patience,young Skywalker,till we finish our work and give it to you,as promised.
  • If we don't reach our total goal,is not an issue.Let's be honest;these are your money,and we never had them before.Even one euro,brings us closer to our dream.We will still feel honored by your funding.

The Impact

As we said before,helping us is one gesture that shows that you really are supporting the so-called "underground" movement.It's true;As we told you before,no one ever gave us for free nothing,and neither will you;the perks are rich enough to make you feel good with what you gave.

  • It's absolutely clear for us that this whole situation is OUR TIME.We're not 20 years old any more,we must make this step now,after 10 years of waiting.That is why we feel this is so important for us.We have so much music to share,we don't want to let it go to waste.
  • We assure you,you won't lose.We tested our strengths with our EP,and all who listened to it,grew hopeful about us.Be one of them.

Other Ways You Can Help

We know-yes,we're from Greece and we know how it feels not to be able to spare a coin-that not all of you can fund an effort like this.Don't worry,we're not mad about you.You surely have your reasons not to fund us,but you can help us by other ways;

  • Spread the word,guys!!!Share the links from our campain,make the net grow bigger and bigger.Someone might be able to help us!!!
  • Use the Indiegogo share tools!It's very easy to share the campain,and help us reach our goal!!!

And as we say...
"Focus,Stay...Stick To The Plan!"

Thank you all!!!
