The EAV (Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung, German for "First Public/General Uncertainty/Un-Insurance") is an Austrian band that got together in 1977. Nino Holm first established a band called "Anti-Pasta", but it was not successful and it dissolved after three years. Holm then decided together with his friend Thomas Spitzer to create a new band. While they were undecided on a name, they saw a bus stop in a branch of "Erste Allgemeine Versicherung ... ", abbreviated EAV, and so they came to the name "Erste Allgemeine Verunsicherung-EAV". They initially faced legal difficulty in Austria due to the (obviously intended) similarity of their band name to that of the corporation "Erste Allgemeine Versicherung" ("First Public Insurance"). This was later dropped and the insurance company was even known to sponsor them on a few occasions. The EAV often changed their members. Their members as of today are Klaus Eberhartinger (Vocals), Thomas Spitzer (Guitar, backing vocals), Kurt Keinrath (Guitar, bass guitar), Leo Bei (Bass guitar), Franz Kreimer (Keyboard) and Robert Baumgartner (Drums). Despite the band's failed attempt to gain international fame, they still remain quite popular in Germany and Austria.See more [+]
