Formada em 2000, quando os amigos Alexandre Augusto (bateria e backing vocals), Luciano Cota (guitarra) resolveram montar uma banda e chamaram para fazer parte do projeto e para figurar no baixo o outro amigo Daniel Maia e apesar de nao possuirem um vocal, foi nesse mesmo ano que saiu algumas composiçoes do primeiro EP entitulado Ammonite que saiu no ano seguinte.
Alessandro Travassos (guitarra e voz) após voltar de uma viagem no final do ano de 2000, foi convidado a fazer parte da banda e a partir dai surgiu o Valv.
A banda tocou em festivais
importantes em São Paulo, Goiânia e Curitiba e tambem participaram do festival americano South By Southwest em Austin, Texas.
O primeiro álbum veio em 2004 entitulado The Sense of Movement e conta com a participação na música título do álbum da vocalista do Pato Fu Fernada Takai.
A banda tem grande influencia de Brit rock e bandas indies americanas dos anos 80 e 90 e ainda com uma pitada de Punk rock que vem da bagagem de Daniel Maia tudo isso resulta em ótima pegada com distorções pesadas e sujas.
Deixo aqui o video da música Frequency do primeiro EP e o da The Sense of Movement do álbum.
Espero que gostem

Again with the intention to disseminate great alternatives brazilian bands, today I bring the band Valv.
Formed in 2000, all started when friends Alexandre Augusto (drums and backing vocals), Luciano Cota (guitar) decided to form a band and called to join the project and to figure in the bass the other friend Daniel Maia, was that year they did some compositions of the first EP titled Ammonite released in the next year.
Alessandro Travassos (guitar and vocal), was invited at the end of year to be part of the band and the Valv was formed.
The band performed at important music festivals in Sao Paulo, Curitiba and Goiania and also participated in the American South By Southwest festival in Austin, Texas.
The first album came in 2004 entitled The Sense of Movement and has the participation of the singer Fernada Takai from Patu Fu band
The band has great influence of Brit rock and American indie bands of the 80s and 90s and still with a hint of punk rock that comes from Daniel Maia, its result in a great indie rock with heavy and dirty distortions.
I present the videos "Frequency" from first EP Ammonite and "The sense of Movement" from the first album.

Conheci Valv entre 2006 e 2007, é uma pena que não ouço falar mais sobre essa excelente banda.
