Biography:
Eterna Ansiedad wasn’t originally conceived as an all-female act, but after several unsuccessful experiences the vocalist and founder Yesica Castelo rightly chose this path.

Their first incarnation came in November 2005, with the perennial Yesi as its soul and voice, and Gonzo, Juanu and Ripp completed the alignment of the band then called “Gaze Of Nemesis”

By mid-2006, in a trio format (Jesse, Gonzo and new bassist Kique), they were renamed as Eterna Ansiedad and started composing their own songs and covering progressive, classical and neoclassical metal bands such as Stratovarius, Dream Theater, Angra and Sonata Arctica.

The difficulty of finding drummers and keyboardists forced the band to perform their songs acoustically, as collected in their first demo and live performances under the title of “Acoustic Neoclassical Night”

The first own song recorded at Tiki Tiki Records estudios was “Sin Poder Continuar” (“Unable to Continue”), but who really were unable to continue were Pablo, Jorge and Kike who left the ship in late 2006.

The following two years saw the coming and going of components, and two new songs “Necesito Ganar” and “Pruebas”. Even so, they were not enough to keep the band cohesion and in June 2008 Eterna Ansiedad closed its first chapter.

Yesi overcame a difficult year, and in September 2009 decided to reform and search for female musicians. Martina, Samanta and Gabriela answered the call, thus giving rise to one of the more stable lineups of the Argentinean band.

Since then Eterna Ansiedad have gone stage after stage performing their songs and getting ready to record a new demo. On 2001 Yesica Castela reformed the band entirely again, leaving definitively the all-female formation to be the only girl in the band, together with Luis (bass), Angel (drums) and Gonzo (guitar).
