Polish Technical Death Metal Band Decapitated Videos and More


Polish technical death metal band DECAPITATED

ChiIL Live Shows can't wait to catch up with Decapitated tonight for a video interview right after their set at HOB.  If you didn't get a ticket yet, don't bother comin' down.   It's SOLD OUT.   We'll be there shooting stills all night and we'll have our interview with Polish technical metal madmen, Decapitated, up soon.

DECAPITATED will open the "SCION A/V PRESENTS: The Ophidian Trek" tour with headliners MESHUGGAH and direct supporters Baroness, which launched April 29th.   Decapitated is playing their lucky 13th night of the current tour right here at HOB in Chi-Town tonight. 

DECAPITATED guitarist Wacław "Vogg" Kiełtyka shares:"Our new video for 'Homo Sum' is totally different than the previous one and really simple, but with the same energy!  Check this out!"

Vocalist Rafał "Rasta" Piotrowski adds: "It was great to record this video in Kraków with our good friends.  Great atmosphere + good mood + hours of moshing equals COOL VIDEO CLIP!  I really like the song.  It's a straight-punch-to-the-face, that's why it works in black and white.  There are no colorful stories inside, no bullshit - just mosh!!!"

"Homo Sum" comes off the band's 2011 album, Carnival Is Forever, which debuted at #11 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart.

The Melismatics formed at the turn of the century in the fertile ground of the Minneapolis indie-rock scene. Their debut album “Postmodern Rock” quickly caught the attention of college radio stations around the country and garnered favorable reviews from critics around the world. Shortly thereafter, Minneapolis indie-rock king pin Ed Ackerson (Motion City Sountrack, The Replacements, The Jayhawks) signed the band to Susstones Records and produced their next two albums “New Infection” and “Turn It On”.

The Melismatics toured the country numerous times over and continued to win loyal fans with their high-energy and unpredictable live shows. Their music has been featured on MTV’s “The Hills,” “The City”and “Laguna Beach,” NBC’s “Windfall”; Animal Planet’s “Jockeys” and they’ve played such notable events as Lollapalooza, Summerfest, and CMJ.

The Melismatics released “The Acid Test” on CC Entertainment/E1 Music (2008). Renowned producer John Fields (Jimmy Eat World, Rooney, Har Mar Superstar, etc) caught the band performing at 2007 SXSW in Austin, Texas and signed on to produce the album. The music video for “Digging Deep” charted at #4 on MTVU and received widespread airplay.

The Melismatics’ upcoming album “MANIA!” was produced by Jon Auer of The Posies and Big Star, along with Ed Ackerson (Motion City Soundtrack, Golden Smog, The Replacements) and was mixed by John Fields. The LP was mastered at Sterling Sound in NYC by Chris Athens (Coldplay, Beastie Boys, NERD, etc) and features collaborations with Dan Wilson (Adele, Semisonic) and Jon Auer who also lends vocals to several tracks.

The Melismatics have found a sound all their own that is familiar yet unique, euphoric and adventurous. The Melismatics’ sound is constantly evolving and developing– as The Onion put it, “no one ever accused The Melismatics of being predictable.” 
MANIA! Out Now on Chicago's Pravda Records

YAMANTAKA // SONIC  TITAN are not your average band. They are from Montreal, and describe themselves best as a "psychedelic noh-wave opera group fusing noise, metal, pop and folk music".  The live show combines performance art sensibilities with straight up rock and roll.

Quotes

"YT//ST creates full-scale events, complete with eerie face-paint, monochromatic paper sets and Boredoms-style drum blasts that blend black metal and kabuki into a jaw-dropping new form. The group’s debut album is equally epic, yet it’s all just a glimpse into their master plan to freak out the squares with a stage production so large no theatre in the world could contain it." - Noisey

"the record feels wholly substantial and satisfying in its own right, and even those with no prior knowledge of YT//ST's history and elaborate intentions can just enjoy it for what it is: volcanic prog-rock colored with equal parts post-punk urgency, stoner-metal heft, and psychedelic pop whimsy." - Pitchfork
