Recently came across these guys and I am blown away. No reason for any Katatonia/The Foreshadowing/Rapture fans to not like this.
They have a very unique songwriting approach and the vocalists high pitched screams remind me of Chris Cornell at times.:zombie:Weird? No, afraid not.
Check these guys out.

The Song "Nothing's Silence" is absolutely stunning. I recommend everyone check this track out first.

Man I shit my pants.That's fuckin great!I've been waitng for sth. like this for so long That Daniel Cardoso man is a genius.He has a band with Garm called Head Control System.(one of my favourite bands actually)

 

[Belligerent]

Truly a great fucking band so far aren't they? That's just from the 3 songs I've heard on myspace and I'm already addicted. If I can find this CD I'm buying it. Head Control System is next on my list to check out!

Welcome to the Kata-forum Beren
Amazing music dude...It's as good as purchased. Any plans for a U.S. Tour in future?

This sounds great. A little Rapture, a little Novembre, a little everything really.

 

[MadTinus]

Sounds very good indeed, especially seeing that apparently it's a fully self-financed release. This should get you signed easily.

Mixing and mastering duties for the new album are finally concluded and the result is as you can hear by listening to "Darker Woods", which is a beautifully ambiental reverie.

Well when you're waiting for the real thing, something must suffice

Nice music guys. I would buy it but I am poor right now.

I always love it how europeans say "de" instead of "the".

 

[Sdob]

Wow.... fucking incredible.

 

[MiniMoose]

This is good, but I'm tired of this kind of music at the moment. Not tired of Katatonia though..need more!

 

[Oblique Rain]

Thanks for the comments guys.

I will not deny our Katatonic influences.
It would be a problem if we were ripping off something from them which is not the case. Besides, our music is much more than just Katatonia based.

Being influenced by Katatonia is a sign of good taste

Being influenced by Katatonia is a sign of good taste

That at least is true.

Waver not, you're on the right track there.
