Indukti

[grieve[Q2C]]

A noteworthy recent band are the polish Indukti. This is great stuff, and "Cold Inside... I" is one of the most hypnotic songs I've heard in a long while.

There are a lot of New Rock/New Metal influences in their sound, I found a certain resemblance to Tool in places. But Inducti's sound is more complex and has a symphonic touch.

They have been invited to NearFest 2007, which says something about the quality.

Selected for the festival by wide popular demand, Indukti filters aggressive yet beautiful soundscapes similar to "Larks' Tongues" era King Crimson through the modern metallic crunch of bands like Tool and Opeth to yield a powerful, delicious and unique instrumental progressive stew. Their debut CD "S.U.S.A.R." on the Laser's Edge has proven to be the label's best selling discs. It offers powerful, dark compositions of hypnotic complexity, featuring articulate bass work, tribal drones, and boiling rhythms which set the stage for the stark contrast of fluttering violin lines with jackhammer guitars. Indukti will sweetly pull the listener in with soft harps and quiet melodies before delivering the punch of crunching riffs.
