About

Elctrikchair

since circa 2003
Native to Colorado and based in Colorado Springs, Elctrikchair is a dynamic group of insanely gifted musicians, unique to the metal genre. Their music is melodic and shockingly sophisticated. Elctrikchair utilizes complex arrangements impossible to accomplish without complete command of instrumental skills and in-depth knowledge of music theory. Elctrikchair plays carefully orchestrated and detailed compositions, incorporates dark and interesting European melodies, Satriani like guitar solos, powerful energy driven blast beats, sensational drum fills and perfectly timed Vic Firth influenced jazz/blues rudiments. Contemporary and traditional progressive death metal vocals that may appear unpolished to some are genuinely appreciated in the diverse metal scene. Passionate delivery combined with a deep and highly desired grunt/scream/clean style [not easily duplicated] sets Elctrikchair apart from the undesired mainstream sound massacre. The orginal metal band idea was born March 2003 when the Rodriguez brothers decided they had a message for the world and the musicianship to deliver it. Representing six Colorado generations, brothers Andy "Jake" Rodriguez, lead guitar and Robert "Bob" Rodriguez, drums, shape the band's nucleus. Bassist, Bill Carey completes the ideal formula for unrestrained anti-corporate corruption lyrics and insanely political metal. In its brief but highly successful history, Elctrikchair, has performed live with high local, regional and national bands. Elctrikchair's latest EP promo has been widely played on college radio by Clear Channel stations and on international metal programs. Elctrikchair's CD magazine reviews have been exceptional. Elctrikchair is on tour nationally. To The Delight of metal Fans, Elctrikchair recently joined Death Angel, Mod, Cattle Decapitation, Deeds of Flesh, The Misfits and metal's best live on the main stage at the Milwaukee Metal Fest.
