Have you ever
seen a dead guy on his bed ? A dead person who has had a long life,
dead tired because of sadness, but also because of anger. If you have
never listened to BLOCKADE's music, you can't understand what I'm
trying to explain to you.
BLOCKADE is
the desperate cry of a whole people who have been martyred, whose
babies have been torn out and skinned up. BLOCKADE doesn't exist
since 1997, as you'll read further but since the april 24th 1915 in
the spirit of all the children of Armenia.
BLOCKADE is
not the kind of band who jumped up all around the stage (maybe
sometimes...) but it's the kind of band that will empty the bullets
of his 9 millimetres in the face of 3 first rank of the mosh pit. Ask
the kids who were present at this famous concert on january 23rd in
Lyon city (state of the affair : one asthma attack, one blackout, one
bleeding just because the three kids has stayed too long in the
pit...), ask the fans of this other concert supporting the famous
parisian hard core metal band KICKBACK (result of the gig : she could
die). BLOCKADE, during the shows, doesn't want to joke.
WE COME, WE PERSPIRE
AND WE LEAVE.
BLOCKADE is
also a compromise between HATRED and melancholy, between CHAOS and
blizzard. Most of the time, it's negative and sometimes, there is a
little positive that would give you the will to dance during the
show. When you listen to BLOCKADE, you'll feel something as if you're
crossing a gallery of blue, black, grey or red mosaics.
