Sounds Like
it's kind of hard to describe your own sound. combine carla's sweet vocals and pure poetry, with jimmy's stray guitar riffs and broken chords, and well, you get something slightly loopy. if you catch us live you'll see sara thompson bringing maximum groove and dazzling physicality to the bass guitar. sara sings too!
Thanks a lot for the add ! EletriKa 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 EletriKa out!

I want to thank you for the front-page video of me performance art dancing with your band. I was likely thinking that you book some gig at the Hotti Biscotti...my favorite place. I am also in the mood to privately teach intepretative dancing to those who never had danced before... Good job, Carla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am fabulous ?! What a disappointment !!! I thought I was a cold, cruel, calculating, heartless b*tch... Have fun on Saturday and enjoy the week-end ! M
