Checkpoint Charlie was formed in spring, 2006, in Budapest. Their style is simple: metal. The group was founded by Tamás Süle after he had left his former group P.O.T. Practices started in May, with no solo singer at that time. It was in September that this position was filled, too, so the group could drive all their members’ energy into fully elaborating their songs. Concerts were given from the end of 2006, and the first EP with 4 songs was made at this time, too. The members of Checkpoint Charlie had played in many different formats before, so they all know what exactly they expect from the band. Their main aim is to produce sincere, hard, modern metal music.

“Just to show what we call metal. That’s it.”
