Athena is a ska punk band from Istanbul, Turkey. Its current line-up is composed of Hakan Özoğuz, Gökhan Özoğuz, Burak Gürpinar and Ozan Musluoğlu.http://www.myspace.com/athenathena/Athena was formed by twin brothers Gökhan Özoğuz and Hakan Özoğuz in 1987. They started their musical life as a metal band, but switched to the ska genre sometime later.Until 1999 they performed numerous concerts and paved their way to their first album Holigan. Athena's ska sound and songs were welcomed by the local record buying public so much so that the title song Holigan was adopted as a march by football supporters of all ages at the stadiums. The album hit various Turkish charts and stayed at the top for a considerable amount of time. Shortly after releasing the Holigan' album, Athena took a large scale tour in Turkey. One of the significant moments of the tour was their show at Açikhava Tiyatrosu in Istanbul, followed by their role as a support act for the Rolling Stones concert at Ali Sami Yen Stadium,home to the Turkish football club Galatasaray, which they consider to be the most important performance of their career.Discography: 1993: One Last Breath 1998: Holigan(Hooligan) 2001: Tam Zamanı Şimdi (Now's the Perfect Time) 2002: Herşey Yolunda (Everything's Alright) 2004: Us (Intelligence) 2005: Athena 2006: It2007: Fenerbahçe 100.
