WHOURKR is an experimental band evolving at the frontiers of Death Metal and Electronica.
The whole project starts in 2005 with Igorrr and Oxxoxoox, two musicians from the new French electronic scene. Soon joined by -i snor, the band finds a groundbreaking concept, getting inspiration both from the primitive side of Death Metal and the delicate and cold side of Electronica. The resulting sound is mostly made of guitars, drums and vocals, all passed through a digital chopper.
The name "WHOURKR" was born from a long research on the primitive human shout. This recurrent sound is the link and the key to the language used in the band's creations: in order to dig further into feelings, the singing doesn't bother with the weight of words. No significance, no translation: the voice is a howling
instrument that creates an emotional language. Ecology is also a strong recurrent theme in WHOURKR's universe, and the first album of the band, "Näat" - derived from "Nature" - expresses that statement in its own way.
Consisting of Igorrr and -i snor since 2007, WHOURKR is currently recording its second album in studio.
Worse than Death Metal.
