"I was born on March 27, 1976, in Budapest. My father was a drummer and I was five years old when I told him that I wanted to learn the drums too. I was mildly successful, but then his band split up and he sold his drum kit. I was left with the chairs, and Zoli’s (Zoltán Kiss, Nemesis’ singer, and Gábor’s cousin) bed, which I normally beat to pieces with wooden spoons. In 1988, Zoli spent 6,000 forints (approx. 24 euro) on an Amati drum kit for my birthday. I was soon playing in a band called Belfegor. During the years in the band I tried playing our own songs on an acoustic guitar, then I tried a few Iron Maiden and Metallica numbers too. I got to really like the bass, and in 1994 we even recorded a few tracks that I wrote. When Classica’s bassist left the band in 1999, Zoli (who was singing in Classica at the time) asked me to join the band as their bass guitarist. In 2001, I gave up my music career because the bands I was playing in were unsuccessful and became incapable of continuing on. I don’t mind that things happened that way, because starting over is always a great challenge. A band called Special Guest formed in 2002, and I was happy to accept the position of bass guitarist. It’s probably not surprising :), but it was again Zoli who called me saying that Nemesis was looking for a bassist. Their genre is one of my favorites and I’ve often seen them play live. So I rocked up to the audition, and from March 7, 2004, I became a member of Nemesis.”
