Bio:

Eddie Vantez is a melodic rock solo project by Ed Omar Carabantes (Hunter) from Coquimbo, Chile. Following his debut album Hungry Heart with Hunter in 2021, Eddie felt the need to take on a solo project that would expand on his love of '80s A.O.R music. On "Rough Diamond" there are songs reminiscent of bands such as Toto, Survivor, Journey to name a few, completing an A.O.R. gem played brilliantly by many musicians from Chile, Perú and Argentina.

HUNTER is a band of Hard Rock, Glam and AOR with many influences from bands like Whitesnake, Europe, bon jovi, Def Leppard etc. It is a promising emerging band from La Serena, which kicked off what will be their debut album, titled just like their first song. The set ensures bringing back to Chile and South America the characteristic Hard Rock of the eighties, such as Bon Jovi, Europe, Journey, Whitesnake and Def Leppard."Hunter seeks to rescue that rock of the eighties a bit, which is already five years ago is already happening with a lot of power there in Europe, with bands like H.E.A.T, White Widdow and in the United States with Steel Panter,".An important fact about the video of "Selva Perla" is that it was filmed in Russia, by the outstanding filmmaker of the fourth region, Patricio Salfate, and with the participation of the model of that country Elena Khukhareva. "It happened by chance, I contacted Patricio Salfate and he told me he was in Russia, but if he wanted to do the filming there with the Russian models he was working with and we would record here, and then he would do the postproduction. .. It was good entrete, said the vocalist.Finally, we wanted to know the future projects that this promising band is working on, so Edgardo Carabantes revealed to us that there was already another song. "There is a second single that is called" Snake ", it is a little more erotic, unlike" Selva Perla "which is more romantic ... They are different themes," he concluded.

Album:

The latest big 'discovery' by Danish label Lions Pride Music is called HUNTER! Hunter is a band that hails from La Serena, Chile and its style is classic melodic rock/edgy AOR stuff. After the digital release of the band's 10 track debut (which contained five songs in Spanish), the band gained the attention of fans, press and, of course, labels!!So, Hunter is ready to conquer the AOR world with its brand new opus entitled "Hungryheart"! The album is going to be released through Lions Pride Music at the end of April. The band consists of Ed Carabantes on lead vocals, Claudio Guerrero on guitars, Leo Correa on keyboards, Juan Carlos Alfaro on bass and Marcelo Alegria on drums."Hungryheart" contains twelve tracks that the sure thing is that will attract every fan of the classic melodic rock/edgy AOR sound. Beautiful melodies, superb harmonic lines, fantastic performances (Ed Carabantes has a so smooth and warm voice), clever hooks and, most of all, a mid 80's classic AOR vibe are the ingedients of this amazing release. Songs such as "Hungry Heart", "Love Hunter", "Sad Eyes", "Rise Up", "Somebody Said (Love Is A Lonely Word)" and "Tonight" are all shine through!!!A true gem of an album and one of 2021's biggest an' pleasant surprises so far!! Highly recommended!
