Ladies And Gentlemen.... This Is a Hostage
Situation!
The MOLOTOV, a Punk/Rap/Metal/Electronica outfit with a diverse hybrid sound, confrontational lyrics and art/video/visuals, combine various musical styles to create a unique sound and an entertaining, if somewhere distrubing, live show.
Mixing machine-gun style rap/punk lines with strong melodic female vocals, infectious guitar & bass riffs and samples with rock, punk, techno, metal & breakbeat drums, The MOLOTOV create an original, energetic and thought provoking fusion of styles with their personal & socio/political lyrics. As well as their own originals, their live sets also include their own distinct cover versions of several well known songs: Prodigy’s BREATHE, RATM's Guerrilla Radio, etc.
Their new "Last Ri†es 4 Capitali$m"
DEMO is the first full band effort from The MOLOTOV, the first CD, “Limited
Sedition” being primarily a solo project by SCART.
"Last Ri†es 4 Capitali$m"
features the rythym/lead guitar & vocals of SCART, the bass guitar & back up
vocals of Matt & the vocals of KT (Caitlin Solca) who’s styles range from delicate
harmonies through to Riot Grrl attacks. It’s songs vary from the soft sounds
of “Mother” with KT’s soft melodies & SCART’s
pulled back spoken word, to the pumping grooves & growling bass of “FREE?”,
the accoustic rap/rock anthem of “In The RED”,
the upbeat punk styles of “TOYTOWN” & “CORPOCRACY’,
through to their full throttle 2009 rendition of “Go
Back To Sleep” with it’s pounding riffs & assaulting lyrics and chant.
Their new drummer Stu, who joined near the end of the demos completion, adds
to the bands dynamics, fills out & tightens their sound and brings his own style
& influnces which can be heard in their live sound and on future recordings.
The "Last Ri†es 4 Capitali$m" & “Limited
Sedition” Demo CD’s are both available for $15 Australia ($11 US, 7.5

outrage but of the joy that lives & prevails under the catastrophic times we
live in. Is it punk, new wave, metal, rock, pop, hip hop or all of the above?“—
