Music Tuesday #022: Polish Please

Indukti can hardly be called the hardest working band in the music industry… Every year they post one or two messages on their Facebook page to show that they haven’t quit yet.  In roughly 20 years they have managed to produce 2 albums and 2 EPs. Still they claim they’re doing fine and maybe working on a new album. Good luck seeing them play live, their gigography notes 7 shows in total.
As a result, they have a small but intense worldwide community patiently waiting for the next album...

This is grown up music in the folk metal / post-metal category.  They build on a lot of Pink Floyd, King Crimson ,Tool and Neurosis influences.  If you are into Tool, Opeth or Dream Theater you might actually be blown away by this album. A good listener will hear a harp next to a lot of violins.  Vocals are by Mariusz Duda of Riverside fame, another interesting progressive rock band which may feature here later.

Music Tuesday #083: The Belgian Stooges

When everything is the same and you can't find any change in an endless monotone landscape you would be bored to death.  That is why people go to the sea or climb mountains.  When there is an end, a cravasse, a feature which is unique there you will find mankind.  We need something else to feel alive.  I will give you La Muerte this week.   Although the name sounds like they're a Latin band, they're definitely not. Do you know them?  They have been a band from Brussels since 1983.  And just like Brussels who gets its character by being squeezed between the Flemish, Walloon and European expat forces, these guys have been molded by many musical trends and influences.  As a result, think blues meets heavy-metal, with some synth thrown for good measure.  This is not for the fainthearted. But this does cleanse the soul. La Muerte - Crash Baby, Crash https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR3SH6lGBZk

Music Tuesday #176: Success is a fleeting moment

This week marks the 4th year that this blog has been running.  Countless times I have almost given up, the stress of coming up with new songs and writing something about it is not a mere trifle. This week I was thinking about bands that missed their opportunity to become hugely successful, not that you must pursue this of course.  But sometimes bands disappear from the scene just before they will make it.  And that's a pity. The band I present to you split just when their breakthrough was imminent.  Maybe, in true punk style, they didn't want success?  I don't blame them.  Ultimately everyone should be allowed to make that choice.  Success is not a guarantee for happiness I guess.

This band is not neutral, this song certainly isn't.  I like music that has something to say.  Enjoy. Anti-Flag - American Attraction (Acoustic) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6INbXgIB6P0 Anti-Flag - American Attraction (Original version) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w008c1-fHIk
