Fjokra - amazing new singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist
« on: April 25, 2014, 08:49:23 PM »
Anyone ever heard of this guy/band?

1 way to describe Fjokra's music

“Todd Rundgren in Genesis listening to Muse while hanging out with Queen, Sikth and Quincy Jones who are all shagging Prince in Rush’s private studio on LSD dressed up as The Beatles mixing Psycore jamming with The Manhattan Transfer in a lost Gershwin musical somewhere in Iceland”- Dave Wibberley
 

another one I find noteworthy:

"sex music for metallers". -Peanut Baines of the Kaiser Chiefs
 
Here's the newest single "Infinite Loops" which will be on the upcoming "Thoughtsteps" EP coming on June 9th.

bump.

his new EP was released today.

pretty nice EP. A lot of vocal distortion and industrial parts among others. I can hear the Devin Townsend influence even more from this EP (incl the 2 bonus tracks).

the section that begins at 2:28 is so hauntingly beautiful.

I sent Slyrex in a song roulette recently! The only song that I don't have is the bonus track Spread The Sweat (I remember this title, if this is not, I talk of the one who's not Psycho For The Sake Of It)

that is the title of the 2nd bonus track. Spread the Sweat I like, but it is more overtly rap (and urban sounding) than any of the other songs he's recorded/released.
