AFFÄIRE new Video is out Now! “Devil’s Cross” is the second single from “At
First Sight”, recently released by US label Demon Doll Records.
AFFÄIRE Biography:
Unlike what the 1990’s music trends and industry dictatorship tried to establish, Rock n Roll doesn’t have to be self-pitiful, innocent and pale.
Years of stage and studio hard work within the Portuguese rock and metal scene - in bands like Attick Demons, Dawnrider, Divine Lust or Iberia - paved the way for AFFÄIRE, founded in late 2011 with the debut single “Born Too Late”, released in 7” vinyl format. The following couple of years were marked by live appearances – including shows as support act for Paul Di Anno (UK) and House Of Lords (USA) - and another single/first official video "Highway Affair".

... Somes recent echoes from
the press:
“Affaire manage to sound like the
bastard child of some LA Hair metal – superstar with some Scandinavian groupie
that spent too much time under the sun”

“Unfortunately, the national scene
was never fertile for bands inspired in the glam side of hard rock but, at first
sight, it seems that we are now well represented by AFFÄIRE”.

“It’s always a good sign if within a
few seconds, you know you are going to like a band. AFFÄIRE play the
kind of ’80s friendly glam and/or sleaze metal music that is easily what I want
to hear. It feels that the band is serving up my favourite comfort food with the
guitar tuned just right.”

“Bottom line is that AFFAIRE with this debut
album achieve to create a solid record all the way which is grafted with lots of
attitude!! If you are a fan of the Sunset Strip L.A. scene, then check out "At
First Sight". Recommended! “

The band’s debut
full-length "At First Sight" was recorded in Lisbon’s Pentagon AM studios and
mastered at “The Groove Room” in San Rafael, California, a studio run by Davy
Vain, who oversaw the whole analog mastering process. The album was released
worldwide by LA based Demon Doll Records in Autumn 2015. It’s available at the
label website (www.demondollrecords.com) or directly by
the band (affairerocks@gmail.com).
Four restless
characters driven from 70’s Punk Rock street decadence, fuelled by NWOBHM rush,
finally crashing on the Sunset Strip glamour & sleaziness!
