eSIKa" = PRONOUNCED: (Ess-eye-kay)
You want to know some SIK shit well here it is.
In 1998 we jammed in basements, fucked with some old school Metallica, Tool and Pantera. We played parties, bars and bus trips by 2000. Mostly covers, adding Soulfly, Mudvayne, Slayer, Sepultura and Slipknot to the mix.
How'd we get such a fucked name? We covered so much Slipknot, we called it Sik, (they used sic), figuring it would own as a band name. It caught! People yelling "Sik!!" wherever we went in our town. An email put an end to that. Some band in Ohio had thier MOM call us and say the name's taken and other business about a lawsuit. So, we spelled the letters. Esika.
Now we all listen to fucked shit and wanna make fucked shit, challenging ourselves with every riff and delivering interesting music that changes and flows.
We're so sick of you bands and your 4-chord shit.
Theres way too many of ya.
All 3 songs on here are c/o our own means. We recorded them ourselves, using a Yamaha electric drumkit. The kit sounds ok, but you can tell its not 'real' per-se. The rubber pads allow us to play at all times, even at night.
They are only rough copies of what's to come. Our new singer doesn't appear on these tracks yet but very soon, he will! We are looking forward to working with our new front man. Not only does he finally bring singing to SIK, but his original vocal style along with controlled effects, vocal pedals, and megaphone; brings many new ideas to the band.
So no more fuckin' around... SIK is going to go record some shit, play some shows and kick some ASS!!
