Red Aim was a German rock band. The group was founded in 1995 and mainly played stoner and raga rock.[1] After the change of vocalist to Karsten Brill, the music started to go more into the direction of punk rock and heavy metal.[2]
History
[edit | edit source]Red Aim was formed in 1995. Pascal Flach and Benjamin Buss knew each other from school.[3] The band released two independent EPs Sinai Jam (1996) and Orange (1998) before signing a deal with 'I Used to Fuck People Like You in Prison Records' (later known as People Like You Records). Red Aim's first album with them was Call Me Tiger.[4] The album contained two bonus tracks from Orange. It was recorded again after Karsten Brill replaced Pascal Flach.[5] Stefan Gemballa joined the band as a drummer. In the same year, Red Aim released their cover of Iron Maiden's "The Trooper".
In 2000, Red Aim was on a tour with Dutch band 7Zuma7.[6] In the same year, they released The Aprilfuckers EP and in 2001 Saartanic Cluttydogs. After signing a deal with American label Metal Blade Records, the band changed their line-up. Bassist Thorsten Erbel was replaced with David Vogt and Christian Jost joined as a keyboardist.[7] In August 2001, they played a concert at Summer Breeze Open Air. In 2002, they released Flesh for Fantasy.[8] In April 2002, Red Aim supported In Extremo during their tour.[9]
In the beginning of August 2002, the band played on Wacken Open Air. In 2003, they released Niagara. On 6 December 2003, Stefan Gemballa got badly injured by a drum monitor that hit him in the head during a concert in Saarbrücken.[10]
In 2003, Red Aim musicians founded a new band Powerwolf.
