  • Bio

    ..When people ask us to describe Kicksville, we're usually at a loss. So, we thought it might be able if we let someone else explain.... Here's how Brian Baker (Cincinnati City Beat, Blurt Magazine) put it:...... "Depending on temperament and circumstance, Kicksville could alternately be described as an African Pop band, a Jam/Prog outfit, Adrian Belew at his most Zappaesque or Beefheartian, a collaboration between Peter Gabriel and Natasha Atlas, a full-throttle Metal assault, Tom Waits banging away on a carnival-in-a-tool-shed short story, or Ministry after a Clockwork Orange session with the new Phish album. And at some point, any or all of those descriptions fit Kicksville like a brand new black concert T-shirt........ The band is more conceptual than actual, although there are seven members who ultimately translate the studio work on stage. Kicksville calls itself a collective and claims over 60 'citizens' from around the world who contribute to the whole in significant ways, which might partially explain Kicksville’s wild diversity..... What’s clear...is that few of the aforementioned sonic reference points serve as actual influences and any sounds that can be attributed to Kicksville are among the most fascinatingly original that are being foisted upon an unsuspecting world. Edgard Varese said it, Frank Zappa lived it and Kicksville puts their own twist on it: 'The modern day composer refuses to die.'".... As Brother Chuck D said, don't believe the hype, but here are some more random press quotes just for giggles........ "Hybrid soundtracking built for artistic insurrection..." - Wired.com .."It's unlike anything I've ever heard..." - Skope Magazine .."Kicksville is the future, no matter how you look at it..." - GBH.tv .."Wild...weird...visually stunning..." - Jambase....

    £leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!

    Hugs from Brazil,
    Claudio David

    Valeu demais a força! Quando rolaumtempinho, me fala o que achou da £leTriKa. Agente junta Metal com umasparada Brasileira. Tamutendumbom feed nas rádios gringas nos quatrocontos. Mantenha contato, blz?

    Grande abraço,
