   About Descolada

  "Metal drums and guitar with violin swim triumphantly atop this entire piece. The song includes dueling bass and violin followed up by emotionally charged screaming." CMJ

"Asheville's Descolada incorporates all make and manner of styles into its unorthodox clamor, boasting a violin-wailing banshee and a heavy-as-fuck, take-no-prisoners rhythm section. It's as if Warren Ellis were playing with Neurosis, equal parts achingly beautiful and cathartically heavy. Highly recommended for the curious and adventurous." Indierocket

"Their music is eerie, disconnected, and intense. It's mournful violin weaving through distorted grungy guitars, dirty bass lines, and hammering drums...Giant slabs of raw, lumbering rock with howling vocals, and thrashing drums that will appeal to your angry side. One thing that's clear throughout this record is the superb musicianship throughout from all the band- who manage to create such a thick and rapturous sound without compromise." Doll Eyes

"This band has destroyed the borders of hardcore. I have never heard a band incorporate so much in one song. They go from haunting to beautiful to brutal all in the blink of an eye, and they manage to do all this without sounding sloppy. I am so impressed with this record, I can't wait to see how they destroy musical borders in the future." Our Reviews

"Descolada manifests as a sophisticated rock curio." Sea of Tranquility

"Theirs was just the first conglomeration of this crashing wave that I heard, and their combined melodic rage has continued to define the new downtown sound for me." Mountain XPress

"Descolada evoke both rage and excitement while simultaneously exploring the unconventional use of the violin. All of which induces mind-blowing crescendos both beautiful and tragic." Charlotte Observer

"They are a must-see act for anyone who hasn't seen them." Creative Loafing

Friends...
Get on the BUS!
Hellblinki on the LaZoom bus at POPasheville
POP Asheville, taking place on Feb. 18,19,and 20, is a music festival spanning three venues, three evenings, and includes over 35 acts. At a mere $15 per ticket, it's a wonderful way to explore Asheville and many of its bands and music halls. Hellblinki will be performing on the LaZoom party bus on Saturday Feb. 19th between Midnight and 2am... Many of you have seen Hellblinki in odd situations, this will be our first performance on a moving bus... (and quite a bus it is!) More info and tickets can be found here: http://www.myspace.com/popasheville
(Advance ticket holders are invited to a special secret event on Friday night...)
Yours,
