  • Bio

    INFINITE : "« Si les portes de la perception étaient nettoyées les choses apparaitraient aux hommes comme elles le sont vraiment. Infini. » -William Blake MOKSHA : État de celui qui est sorti du cercle du Samsara, du cercle des Renaissances. État de celui qui est en constante recherche de lui-même. RIP RIP RIP RIP (2005-2011) Né en 2005 sous le ciel bleu de la cité montréalaise Infinite Moksha compose une dizaine de chansons avant d'entrer en studio en 2005 afin d'enregistrer ce qui est maintenant connu sous le nom de Fighting against the sleeping pills récital post rock au teinte progressive et grunge, utilisant une poésie symboliste et bilingue comme moyen d'expression. L'album est un parfait mélange entre la béatitude et l'agressivité, la poésie et la philosophie (nietzschéenne principalement), le mystique et le mythique engendrant ainsi le son Nu-Goth (Mirror Magazine août 2005) dont les critiques les affublent. La trame thématique des textes s'intéressent au problème de l'oisiveté des nations occidentales comme source de multiples souffrances : le désarrois, le désespoir, la perte de volonté… Suite à la sortie de leur premier album, le groupe prend la route et se produit un peu partout au Québec, en Ontario et dans les Maritimes. Après le succès de leurs cinq tournées ontariennes, leur unique tournée des Maritimes et la multitude de concerts données au Québec, I.M entame sa campagne de promotion en tourne sur les ondes de CISM (89,3), CIBL (101,5), Bandeapart.fm, Choq,fm à Montréal, CKIA (88,3) à Québec, CFAK (88,3) à Sherbrooke, CHQC (105,7) à St-John N-B, CHOQ (105,1) à Toronto, CKCU (93,1) à Ottawa et plusieurs autres. Un deuxième album de quatre pièces sera enregistré en 2008, "Là où l'hiver mugit de rage, rugit de mages". Il leur permettra de se présenter comme un groupe plus accompli et d'obtenir ainsi davantage de temps d'antenne dans les radios alternatives et universitaires du Canada en support de leur nouveau spectacle. Après plus de 175 concerts donnés dans cinq provinces différentes, dont des prestations remarquées avec Rasputina (Columbia Records), Patrick Watson (Secret City Records), Wintersleep (Labword Music), Yesterday's Ring (Aquarius Records), Arseniq33 (Indica Records), Subb (Stomp Records), Les Ékorchés (Indica Records), MAP (Slam Disques), Les Dorothée (Tox Records), Jet Set Satellite (Loaded Dice Music), Nitrosonique, Flatlined (Voodoo Records), Midway State (Interscope), le groupe est enfin prêt à affronter tous les obstacles qu'il rencontrera sur son passage et le prouvera par l'entremise de leur troisième album dont la sortie est prévue pour l'hiver 2011. ______________________________________________ INFINITE : ""If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is. Infinite." –William Blake MOKSHA : The state of being releived from Samsara, from the rebirth circle. The state of constantly being seeking for your innerself. Born in 2005 under Montreal City's blue skies, Infinite Moksha wrote about ten songs before entering the studio in 2005 to record what is now known as "Fighting against the sleeping pills", a post-rock recital with progressive and grunge overtones, using a symbolist and bilingual poetry as a means of expression. The record is a perfect blend between beauty and aggression, poetry and (Nietzschean) philosophy, the myths and the mystic leading critics to call it Nu-Goth (Mirror Magazine, August 2005). The songs centre on a major theme: the problem of idleness in the Western world and speaks of endless suffering: distress, chaos, despair, and loss of the will to act. Right after the album was released, the band headed on the road to perform around Quebec, Ontario and the Maritimes. After five successful tours in Ontario, one on the East Coast and many concerts played all over Quebec, Infinite Moksha started getting some air-time on CISM (89,3), CIBL (101,5), Bandeapart.fm, Choq,fm in Montreal, CKIA (88,3) in Quebec City, CFAK (88,3) in Sherbrooke, CHQC (105,7) in St-John, NB, CHOQ (105,1) in Toronto, CKCU (93,1) in Ottawa and countless others. A second album featuring four tracks was recorded in 2008, titled, "Là où l'hiver mugit de rage, rugit de mages". The album shows a more accomplished sound that will soon help the band to gain more airtime on underground and college radio stations all over Canada in support of their new live show. After playing 175 shows in five provinces, including shows with Rasputina (Columbia Records), Patrick Watson (Secret City Records), Wintersleep (Labword Music), Yesterday's Ring (Aquarius Records), Arseniq33 (Indica Records), Subb (Stomp Records), Les Ékorchés (Indica Records), MAP (Slam Disques), Les Dorothée (Tox Records), Jet Set Satellite (Loaded Dice Music), Nitrosonique, Flatlined (Voodoo Records), Midway State (Interscope), the band is finally ready to overcome all obstacles on its path and will prove it with its third album to be released in winter 2011. .. .. .. .. .... .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .." /> .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
