Sans Kabaret

Astray from the herd of metallic sheep, Sans Kabaret offers an eclectic hybrid of bass-powered vulgarity and bittersweet melodic pompousness, a catatonic mélange of the varied musical and poetic influences of three extremely different individuals. The Norwegian lyrics are reflections on the apparent futility of effort and the paranoia that descends in the crossfire between personal creativity and the pressures of conformity. More a haphazard by-product of the uncompromising musicians slightly hostile musical tug-of-war than the result of a docile, comfortable creative process, SK is an acquired taste. The brutal façade may scare away radio-attuned listeners, but underneath the surface you may find gems of delicate sound. With a hint of 60s psychedelic retro, hard-hitting rhythms, catchy melodies and grindy-voiced rap, SK delivers inner turmoil packaged in a pop format.
