2002 saw the birth of a new progressive band Karmakanic. Their debut album, Entering the Spectra, became very popular among the fans of progressive rock and the established rock press around the world. They were honored with the prize for Best Newcomer of 2002 in the big progressive poll DPRP; and charted several other lists as the best newcomer on the scene.
2003 was a great year for the members of Karmakanic. Jonas Reingold and Zoltan Csörsz achieved great success with The Flower Kings album, Unfold the Future which sold close to 40,000 copies worldwide, and was followed up with two successful tours in Europe; one in the US / Canada where they played the leading prog rock festival, Nearfest. They also got involved in the project Tangent ("...the music that died alone"), which, became an instant "hit" on the scene. Jonas was also involved in the recording of the 2nd album from the Swedish supergroup, Kaipa.
In 2003 Karmakanic joined forces to record the their 2nd album. With stellar performance and a stunning production they created the masterpiece Wheel of Life. Some say it sounds like Yes, others mention Dream Theater, King Crimson or even Zappa. But most people say: "That's Karmakanic!"
Karmakanic will later this year follow the release with a tour throughout Europe. They will show to the world that this is a first class recording act that also delivers a stunning live performance that clearly spells out: "It ain't bragging if you can back it up."
Karmakanic is here to stay.
Remember Karmakanic.
