karnivool captures kolkata,India.
KARNIVOOL
Since this is my very first post i need the topic to be very close to my heart.What can be better than blogging about witnessing my favourite band live from the front row?Yes.it has been just two days since Karnivool blew minds at nicco park,Kolkata on eleventh january.A perfect start to a new year.Those who have not heard of Karnivool (you have been missing out on paradise all this while!) start right away with 'new day' from their second studio album,SOUND AWAKE.This song is my personal favourite.
Karnivool is a progressive metal band hailing from Perth,Australia.They have been active since 1997 and currently consist of the genius named Ian Kenny on vocals(BTW he gave me an autograph which i will preserve till i die and take it with me to my grave),Andrew Goddard and Mark Hosking on guitar,Jon Stockman on bass,and Steve Judd on drums.
First EP: KARNIVOL (1999)
Second EP: PERSONA (march 2001) {DO CHECK OUT FEATHERWEIGHT.YOU WILL KNOW WHY}
First studio album: THEMATA (2004-07)
Second studio album: SOUND AWAKE (2008-10)
Third studio album: ASYMMETRY (2011-present)
They had played in india before but unfortunately i had not come across them then.In 2013 a music obsessed talented friend of mine introduced me to them and i had fallen in love with them ever since.When i heard they were returning to perform in india i went online and bought the tickets the very moment they went on sale.On 11th january the crowd at nicco park went berserk chanting the band's name as they took the stage opening with 'simple boy'.Other tracks they played included 'we are','roquefort','themata','all i know' and so on.By the time they finished with 'new day',the crowd was hypnotized and emotional.this has been been the most magical experience in my life till now.I can never thank this band enough.those of you reading this,make sure you catch them live when they are here again.AND START LISTENING TO THEM ALREADY :D
