Honcho

Is stoner dead? Not at all!

Honcho was formed in 1998 and being inspired by bands like Black Sabbath, Kyuss and Soundgarden Honcho had great visions of what type of music they wanted to play.

In 2000 Honcho was ready to record and release their self financed "Evil woman EP" and followed it up by touring Scandinavia.

French Water Dragon Records were interested in Honcho early on and wanted the band to contribute with two songs on their "Water Dragons Greatest Hits Vol.1" release. The cooperation went so well that Honcho later decided to release their debut album "Corporate Rock" on Water Dragon Rec.

Because of artistic differences there have been some alterations in the line-up, but Honcho believe they have finally found "the magic spell that makes them on of Norway’s most complete Heavy Rock Bands".

In 2005 Honcho's second album "Burning in Water Drowning in Fire" was released and following the release was a tour covering most of Europe and the release of their live DVD "Live in Paris, France".

The status as of February 2007 is that they are currently looking for a new guitar player + lead singer.
