Hrsta (pronounced "hursh-tah".) is a Montreal post-rock band that records on Constellation Records. The band's leader, Mike Moya (guitar and voice), was also one of the founding members of Godspeed You! Black Emperor. Although people tend to compare Hrsta's sound with that of Godspeed You! Black Emperor, A Silver Mt. Zion or even Set Fire to Flames (which may be interpreted as somewhat normal because Mike Moya has played/plays with them all and his guitar sound is unique), Hrsta differs from the previous in the use they make of Moya's voice, a characteristic that's as unique as his guitar skills. The strings are almost always used just as a means to fill a texture or complement the overall sound.
Thanks!
Progressive art can assist people to learn not only about the objective forces at work in the society in which they live, but also about the intensely social character of their interior lives. Ultimately, it can propel people toward social emancipation.
