Dopo meno di un anno vede la luce il primo demo “Never alcoholized” e gli HOUSTON! cominciano a collezionare diverse esperienze live che li portano a diventare uno dei gruppi più seguiti della scena piacentina.
Pochi mesi dopo la band è in studio per registrare il primo album “Fast in elegance” che li porta alla ribalta internazionale grazie alla collaborazione con l’etichetta americana Sliptrick Records. E’ il 25 febbraio del 2008.
Ad aprile la band apre il concerto dei Vengeance, gruppo storico olandese e, grazie a una trascinante performance che conferma la loro grande predisposizione per il palco, vengono notati dal manager Erik Prins, titolare della Mam Agency, il quale propone ai giovani musicisti una collaborazione. A ottobre, dopo svariati live nei locali del nord Italia, la band parte alla volta dell’Olanda e del Belgio per una tournée di 12 giorni nel nord Europa, ottenendo un buon successo anche grazie alla curatissima presenza scenica e a un’alta preparazione al palco.
Rientrati in Italia, gli HOUSTON! lavorano alla stesura delle nuove tracce che costituiranno il secondo album “Mechanical sunshine”. Con l’avvento del nuovo batterista, John L.S., la band si dedica alla composizione di pezzi più articolati, complessi, caratterizzati da riff taglienti e da una vocalità più aggressiva.
Alla fine di aprile 2009 la band parte per un nuovo tour in Europa che li conferma come band rivelazione, facendo sold out in molti locali.
Al loro ritorno gli HOUSTON! firmano con Tanzan Music: il nuovo e atteso album “Mechanical Sunshine” sarà disponibile nell’estate 2011.

@ALBUM:
@SONG: My love is your love
If tomorrow is judgement day (sing mommy)
And I'm standin' on the front line
I will say I spent it with you
If I wake up in WW 3
I see destruction and poverty
And I feel like I want to go home
It's okay if you coming' with me
Chorus:
Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
If I lose my fame and fortune
And I'm homeless on the street
And I'm sleepin' in Grand Central Station
It's okay if you're sleepin' with me
As the years they pass us by
We stay young through each other's eyes
And no matter how old we get
It's okay as long as I got you babe
Chorus
If I should die this very day
Don't cry, cause on earth we wasn't meant to stay
And no matter what people day
I'll be waiting for you after judgement day
Chorus
The lyrics of Houston's song "My love is your love" carry a message of love that transcends all difficulties and challenges. The first verse speaks of standing on the front line during a judgment day and being asked by the Lord what was done with life; Houston says that she's spent her life loving someone. The second verse speaks of being in World War III, seeing destruction and poverty, and wanting to go home - but she's okay with it as long as the person she loves is with her. Houston then goes into the chorus, which emphasizes the unbreakable nature of their love and how no chains could hold them.
The third verse speaks to the idea that even if Houston were to lose her fame and fortune, and end up homeless on the streets, she's okay with it as long as the person she loves is with her. As the years pass by, Houston sings that they stay young through each other's eyes, and as long as she has her love beside her, she will be okay. In the final verse, Houston speaks of death and how no matter what anyone says, she will always be waiting for her love after judgement day.
Overall, the song speaks to the power of love and how it can help us overcome any challenges in life. Whether it's standing on the front line during judgment day, living through a war, or facing homelessness, as long as there's love, everything will be okay.
