HE'S BACK AND ON FIRE !! (qoutes johnny)

IM JUST GOING TO GRAB MY NUTS AND GO FOR IT!!

WOUTER chooses the regular life

FLOODSTAIN  (in the soap opera of hell)

There's  happened a lot of stuff since the last time I spoke to you. Our drummer wouter quit the band after he did the last gig in schiedam  the main reason was that he got to busy with everything. His house his girlfriend, and work and hadn't got enough time to do a lot of gigs. we where both  shocked by this event because we just sign a contract for more gigs and weren't going to cancel them no way!! But he didn't stop playing he went back to his old pals inferno where as he said ambitions and expectations aren't so high as within floodstain well good luck..

So we asked if our old friend and old member of the band jory could come back and fill the drum stool  again

And he wanted to play again so he rejoined rex and me we practiced  8 nights long to learn him the songs

He already knew some of it and the old stuff he had played on him self so that wasn't so hard.

We played a gig with him in Amsterdam it was full of people, but the split up still made us fucking frustrated so we ended up trashing everything almost it was fun.

Later we practiced more and more and played a gig in waterfront it was fully loaded with people but I felt very sick but jordy played as fuckin loud as hell. it was a great gig and you can see pics of it on the band live section

The next day we played in the mach hellevoetsluis where some claim that I sang the best the ever seen well I don't know..

Where almost finished with the new song starving with your mouth full hope ya like it I want to thank the fans that stick to us and support us you make it worth for me to be proud about myself sometimes thanx

And thanx to willem for believing in us

NEW SONGS

hallo its me joZz and i would like you to tel that rex and me wrote a bunch of new song and are planing to play them live soon

the song is about the miljon confusions you go trough in your life or mental stage while growning up

and about  the suicidal mind scrapes you feel when your successfull acts change nothing again......Jozz, Rex,Tracy

18-5-2003 new pics from popshop and live recordings

OLD BIOGRAPHY 2003

We found a very old biography! Written somewhere in 2001/2002 or maybe 2003... 

Inspired by 70's and with the furry of the 90's Boy Overheid (a.k.a. Jozz Fernandez) started the band Floodstain with his brother Jordy Overheid (a.k.a. Spitfire) on drums and Stefan Nederpelt on bass.

With these inspirations we noticed that people gave us the label stonerock or desert rock but because we listened to bands as 

• Fu Manchu
• Nebula
• Queens of the stoneage
• Kyuss
• 7zuma7
• Spoiler
• Led Zeppelin
• Deep Purple
• The Who
• The Kinks 
• Lowrider 
• and more that label was normal.

But Stefan left and went on with his other band "Pirates and Pitlizards" or something (playing freak rock)

But no fear, Rex Wrench was here to save the day! The new bass player is Alex van de Tang and he rocks! So, complete again we hit the road again, head in to your town!

Later after we had some problems with our drummer (the green took over his live and his wife), we decided that he could better get out, and took Hitman Wouter under our wings, whom stopped with his former unknown band Inferno.

People say our live shows are raw, intense, and over the top, "something we didn't see for a longtime".... with things like burning guitars, spitting water, jumping trashing, you name it, and we name it Rock n roll..  

Jozz  

Wouter is retired and jordy is inspired!!
(yae chicks can kill ya band before you can even fuck her)

the current setup is 

• boy: vox/guitars, 
• rex wrench: bass , 
• johnny spitfire: drums, he's back for revenge!

nspired by the grooves from the seventies and the aggression from the nineties here's floodstain

Putting the blues in asphalt and the asphalt in blues

But as always things never are easy, but if the engine keeps running why ever consider letting it blow

PS. We are so happy to find this via the Wayback machine, being able to fill in all the gaps of the Floodstain HISTORY!
