Forged from the hardest Jura rock, their music surges like wild torrents from the speakers. Smokeheads is an atypical group, caressing raw metal before hammering it out on the anvil. SMOKEHEADS has perfected an Alternative Metal which is both enjoyable and original. The group consists of Philippe on drums, Alain on bass, David C. on guitar and David Z. vocals and guitar. Each one has his own stage and musical past, trying out moods along the way and accumulating ever more fruitful experiences that have brought them closer to their artistic voice. Together they have forged a new, melodic and powerful alloy. Don’t try to find their formula. This type of alchemy mixes so many influences (Toto, Gojira, Queen of the Stone Age, Mastodon, System of a Down, Tool, Porcupine Tree, Devin Townsend and many more), that there is no need to explain further. Just listen.
Listening to songs wrapped around a mesmerizing rhythm, picked up along the way by the hoarse and staccato breath of the guitars, the scene is set for the rich, deep-toned voice of the singer. Smokeheads’ music has a simplicity and truth which compels the ear, rising through the ages yet wonderfully contemporary.
