== History == === Vank (1994–2009) === In 1994, Vank had their first concert in Bucharest at the Ion Creangă theatre. In 1996, they built their first studio in the basement of the apartment building their parents lived in. In 1999, the four released the single "Independent", which shortly thereafter became Atomic TV's anthem. In November, they released their first album, "Voyeur", which contained 10 tracks. Not long after that, Vank entered mainstream Romanian radio and TV stations with the song "Noi O Scoatem La Capăt". The track became a smash hit. The band's second album, "6 Piese De 5 Stele", came out in 2001. The first song promoted from the album was "Regele soselelor".
