Imagine that it is after midnight, shadows everywhere, and you are being transported through town on an escalator instead of walking on the sidewalk. Oblisk's music would be the ultimate soundtrack for your journey.
Oblisk officially entered the Detroit music scene in 2004. The players have changed since its inception, but the vision has remained the same since the beginning: to create a band with a certain musical style.
There is nothing straightforward about Oblisk's music. The elements can be categorized as experimental/psychedelic/ shoegazing/wall of sound. A dramatic soundscape- focusing heavily on a dense sound that reverberates, where tension is built and then is shattered.
The music transports you wherever you want to go: Imagine flying through a storm on an airplane, riding a train through a desert windstorm, or driving through a blizzard. Listen to the patterns created. Sometimes you can hear something forcing itself through the droning. Add subdued, sometimes haunting vocals- that is how Oblisk sounds.
Check them out live to create your own sound experience. Oblisk will be on stage tonight at the Lager House in Detroit. Purchase a copy of their latest album Weather Patterns at Candy Colored Dragon.
