    Cawatana 

    Cawatana

    was formed in 1999, but the two founding members (Sörös Gergö – vocals, acoustic guitar, percussions, Kiss Balázs – acoustic and classical guitars) have played music together for more than ten years in various forms.

    In 2004 Sörös Gergő has founded his own band, Larrnakh, since then Kiss Balázs has been the only official member of Cawatana, now he is responsible for all the music and (partially) the lyrics, while Sörös Gergő became a “constant guest musician”, who sings on recordings (and contributes also in the lyrics), and he is the live drummer and vocalist.

    At the beginning on concerts and recordings they were helped by some guest musicians on keyboards, bass, percussions, but recently there has been a stable line up for concerts, containing Kiss Kornél on acoustic guitar and Kiss Ottó on bass.

    Formerly the music of Cawatana balanced between tranquil, acoustic guitar-based neofolk and harsher snare drummings and other percussions, with keyboards playing an important role in both styles. Nowadays the harsher industrial parts seems to disappear from their music.

    Larrnakh – Now Will You Believe?

    mayo 21, 2016

    Larrnakh – Now Will You Believe?
    Label: Steinklang Industries – SKD 27
    Format: CD, Album, Digipak
    Country: Europe
    Released: 2010
    Style: Industrial, Ambient, Experimental, Neofolk

    Great NeoFolk album featuring (ex)members of CAWATANA, STURMAST and SCIVIAS!
    “Now will you believe?” is a brilliant mix of classical guitar-based NeoFolk with electronic elements, varied and assembled with droning Ritual/Dark-Ambient tracks.
    The mix of two completely different styles in music makes this album to a outstanding new “crossover”.
    Dark and sometimes frightening soundscapes with samples, trumpets and haunting drums are compiled with beautiful harps, piano, violin and narrating vocals, rounded by fine NeoClassical elements.

    Tracklist :

    1. Have my own way
    2. If there were…
    3. Respectus
    4. Sacramental obligation
    5. Delictum
    6. Veneration
