My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 8/3/2005
Band Website: nikoskorpio.net
Band Members: Me. Live performances will feature a cast of assistants, to be revealed when the stars are right...
Influences: A nameless compulsive urge.
Sounds Like: "Listening to this album is almost like taking a walk through insanity itself. I can only assume that this would be what it would be like to live inside the mind of a paranoid schizophrenic. Slowly rocking yourself back and forth and singing along with the demented voices in your mind." (Heathen Harvest)

"Exploding all conventions, Niko Skorpio explores regions rarely visited. This mix of doom, experimental and delicate dark ambience pleases more than it frightens, yet without seeming to try. In the end we come out of this experience with a head full of new possibilities and musical arrangements (this, the same brain that is usually too narrow to understand the complex and steep steps). An unforgettable and intoxicating experience." (GIAG)

"It's dark, it's deep and it plays the card of mood music very well." (Vital Weekly)

"Often exhibiting ritual tendencies, sometimes exposing tense dark ambient soundscapes and at other times sinister nightmarish undertones, Skorpio acknowledges his influences but firmly stamps his own imprint on his work." (Side-Line)

"Imagine if trip-hop star Tricky gave up the reefer, moved to Finland, and got depressed and lost his mind... and you'll be on the right path." (Black Box Radio)

...but never ever believe what they tell you?! Please listen and decide for yourself whether you like it or not! Feedback appreciated.
