Post Plague with Odonis Odonis - An Interview


Se existe insanidade e inteligência na música atual, e existe muita por sinal, um desses grandes exemplos, sem dúvida é, o agora, trio canadense Odonis Odonis.

Os caras podem ir desde o noisesurfgazepsych de "Hollandaze" o debute deles de 2011 até o industrial post gaze de seu mais recente álbum "Post Plague" lançado este ano. Tudo isso sem perder o poderio enérgico e o barulho gratuito que os caras perpetuam sem jamais, veja bem, jamais perder o fio condutor de explorar por todos os meios sonoros suas perturbações sônicas.

Sem se ater a rótulos, limites ou modismos, o Odonis Odonis segue adiante sua caminhada ao inferno, violentos e agora mais sintéticos do que outrora.


***** Interview with Odonis Odonis *****


Q. When did Odonis Odonis start? Tell us about the history...
It all began around 2009-2010 as a bedroom project. I was going through a rough time, lost my job and broke up with my fiance at the time and put all my energy into writing music. I sent the record out to some labels and got picked up by Fat Cat in the UK and decided I needed to put a band together. Here we are now on our 3 record.

Pixies, Ministry, Skinny Puppy, Cramps, Depeche Mode, Big Black, New Order
