Influences
Hard to say, influences on this band can be found in many different bands and genres. Most worthy to mention are bands from the fields of classic rock, progressive rock, hard rock, heavy metal, thrash metal, alternative, art rock, progressive metal, dark wave and inspirations from the Macedonian folk music can also be found in Grimus' style. Anyway, we try not to sound like any specific band or known music genre. And for the lyrics, influences include life, death, melancholy and stuff, with their reflections on us and our thoughts about'em.
Sounds Like
As mentioned before, we hope and try not to sound like any other band in the world, so in our music you could find similarities or influences by many bands from many different music fields. I wouldn't dare to mention any band for comparison, if you ought to - just go for it.
The genesis of 'Grimus' is formed in the middle of 2006 in the city of Struga, Macedonia by guitarist and (then) vocalist Rade Gogoski and drummer Marjan Vlakeski. After a few line-up changes, the band has its first gig in Dec '06 with Aleksandar on guitar, Bojan ..board and Dragan on bass among the upper two. This line-up performs on the local rock/metal festival called 'Odi Vezbaj' (translation will be "Go Practice :)") where they are quite well received from the audience and record their first sort of a demo thing. A few gigs follow up, but then a long gig stagnation and line-up changes resulting with Rade, Marjan, Bojan, Igor on the lead guitar, Vlado on the bass guitar and Lazar as a vocalist. This is a new era for Grimus, they perform again on Odi Vezbaj II festival in Struga, on Rock Fest 2008 in Skopje, festival in Gevgelija (in the meanwhile, Vlado is replaced by Marko) and some local gigs in Struga, but mostly affective on the band will turn to be the show in Gevgelija where they receive many good critics from the audience and enter the final show. Soon hopefully the final line-up change is done by replacing Marko with Hendrik from Ohrid on the bass guitar, and defining the 50+ material consisting of the songs Племе (Tribe), Лилаво (Purple), Хаос (Chaos), Последен Допир (The Last Touch), Судбински Крик (Destiny's Scream), Однесено (Gone Away), Симург (Simurg) and Пророкот На Збогувањето (Prophet Of Farewell). Most of this songs are performed on the Summer '08 shows in Ohrid,Skopje and Struga on the great Dojdi Veslaj II Fest (literally translation is incredibly dumb - "Come and Paddle"). Currently, the band is finally working on their Myspace, and a nice surprise for the audience coming soon. Enjoy our music :)
