Krakatau

There are several artists named KRAKATAU:

  1. avant-fusion band led by guitarist Raoul Björkenheim.

  2. Indonesian jazz outfit. They play fusion at first, but then experimenting by merging indonesian ethnic style with western jazz.

  3. Russian experimental metal band which was formed in Moscow in 2004, inspired by the experiments of Mike Patton, and other worthy guru, so the band has always been close to the spirit of musical freedom. As result it immediately attracted the attention of fans of alternative music. Hallmarks of Krakatau may assume conceptualism, provocative, absurdism. Their sound has developed from an experimental, dirty and hypnotic sound that is at times closer to the refined music lovers.

Krakatau already has several releases, namely:

Sobaka ‘04 Dog Empire ‘07 Live! - Trash! - Bang! [dvd] ‘08 Sex. Anarchy. Alcohol. [single] ‘08 Fresh Blood in the Churchill’s ‘09 6°6′6″ [single] ‘11 Krakatau ‘11

Last April Krakatau released their new album. The album is full of contradictions and dissonances … Sound of the album easy causes a pleasant state of trance, with psychodelic deep sound, with contrasts based on roughness and toughness of musical passages. This album definitely has its own unique vision of this world, and even more, it has … It’s better to listen to this album at least once to realize how it close, how it understandable, how much it expands your horizons of vision of the world of music… and vision in general …
