First track apart, I hear a lot of Pink Floyd influence (before Dark Side). The ethnic parts are Eastern with a Greek/Hebrew touch, correct me from wrong. Not easy to classify in a subgenre, but I'll buy your album when at home. Looking at this site's definition of subgenres (from the home page), which one do you think fits better? |

Hi Octopus,
Thank you :)
On Bancamp there is about uor texts, but I'll put here some more too :) About lyrics: 4. „Zoriushka” - a traditional old Russian song which probably comes from Siberian Cossacks. It is a song traditionally sung to brides-to-be. The quoted part depicts sunrise and sunset indicating that life in general follows a certainpattern. 6. „Kalina” includes two polish folk songs from Podlasie region „Oj, chtoz tam po sadu chodył” and „W konci seła”. This kind of spring songs from Podlasie region usually describe love between young men and women. Both songs have the same heroine – a girl called Handzia. In the first sond she meets a boy Ivanko in an orchard in the early hours of the morning. The meeting ends with broken branches of a tree called „kalina” (viburnum) and trampled flowers. In the other song, boys in the village all argue over Handzia. 7. „Mirror” - the contemporary yet inspired by folk music lyrics enter into a dialogue with folk tradition. It calls for the folk tradition to embrace individuals whose experiences so far have been excluded. Best regards :) Edited by LsaMusicStories - October 24 2018 at 09:52 |

Thanks. Anyway, we have evaluation teams for each subgenre.
Knowing which one fits better would simplify the things. |

Sure, I understand, but it is difficult for us to put our music into the box with a name...
I've checked all the genres. I think the closest are: Prog Related Eclectic Prog Prog Folk..... And... As Kate Bush sang "Please, be kind to my mistakes" ;)
& HELP! (like The Beatles) us. |

Hey this all sounds very promising + Anna Klebus has an amazing voice! Quite mesmerizing. Seems like she's very profilic and I guess maybe not available for LSA as a fulltime member?
I personally think your band could fit in both Prog Folk or perhaps Indo Raga... the folk/world parts is what stands out as your signature sound. I got to admit that I also think you're much better at the folk/ethnic style (that fortunately dominates the album) than the conventional rock-parts with fuzzy guitars and straight forward drumming. Sorry about that... I still enjoyed the album for the most part.

She is rather "featuring" .
We wanted only "Kalina" to be a song, in the beggening, but then she sang more & we were suprised, how beautiful it is in the end.... What will happen in the future, time will show :) And about music... For us each piece is a kind of story. A Journey. Not a song in a traditional Way, when some parts are repeated... It is a kind of evolution. There are so many view outside the window during travelling... Edited by LsaMusicStories - October 24 2018 at 22:15 |
