En deux (ou trois) mots |
- Origine: Montreal - Canada
- Genre(s): Cyber Thrash / Space Metal
- Label: Nuclear Blast
Not many bands deserve to be labelled "legends", but Voivod are definitely one of these bands. The Canadian band from Montreal never had their commercial breakthrough but influenced legions of metal bands with their original sound, a sound that no band was ever able to copy - Unique and special. Voivod are one of the bands which both fans and musicians have great respect for.
Now they’re back with the fourteenth album, "Katorz" ("Quatorze" means fourteen in French). The album was finished under tragical circumstances: Piggy, legendary guitar player and founding, member died of colon cancer in 2005 during the recording process, but it was his wish, that "Katorz" would see the light of day. His guitar parts were already recorded on his laptop. He gave Drummer Away some advice on how to find and use them. So the album was mainly put together around Piggy’s guitar parts. His music lives on!
