History of Harmony In Grotesque
The official birthday of the last day may be considered harsh winter of 1998, when there was a first full rehearsal for the fittest in terms of composition, to this day remains the backbone of the team: Tim (bass, by the vast majority of musical ideas), Anton (vocals) and Oleg (drums). Since February 28 of each year, the group regularly and faithfully celebrated the anniversary. At the expense of future special style differences do not exist: all agreed that music should be heavy, dark, fairly melodic and wrapped in a measure. From the outset, had problems with a guitarist. It turned out that almost one million city is hard to find individual musically and ideologically pure on - the right human. On the role of Pinger six strings was elected Pluha (College of Music student). However, besides the ability to play Bach and Prokofiev, he had another astounding talent - to disappear at the most inopportune moment for any of the remaining members of the group to an unknown destination. Just this his gift and he soon neprimenul use. After some time of this fever. The group even tried to Ivan Murder with his fretless bass, but experimentation with two basses and guitars without any further extension is not received.
Lastly, where - in May 1998 in Harmony In Grotesque on the role of guitarist came Vital, and only a fortnight later: 06.06.98 (not true - whether the remarkable date, especially considering that the concert began at 6 o'clock in the evening and group name the poster was printed in the sixth), the newly formed team debuted at the concert "Rock for the environment." Speech by the logical fate befell the first pancake. Due to the small number of joint rehearsals with new guitarist, as well as unique abilities engineer, the band played very badly. Unintelligible pozhuzhzhav twenty minutes, the frustrated Harmony left the scene. After this debut could not help having second thoughts about dissolving the group, but a little thought, the team was a joint decision to continue on to spite of all the intrigues of Fortune, detractors and harsh weather conditions of Siberian nature (or rather, due to the latter).
The group was taken precocious gifted keyboardist, Olga. Also, a number of musical and personal differences of the team went (read: he was expelled), Vitaly. The group returned prodigal Pluha, and a new line-up team (Tim - bass, Anton - vocal, Olga - keyboards, Oleg - drums, Pluha - guitar), and simultaneously changing the rehearsal, begins to create new material.
Fresh program group was released March 13, 1999 in "R - club." In a session vocalist on one of the things the group, called "Cold Siberia" played his part magnificently old friend of Napalm. At the same concert, Timothy and Oleg worked as a rhythm - section to cast more hope (but, sadly, gave their untimely ends) project "Broken Wings". Performances of these two teams failed to fame. On this concert, do not stop to think have over the years as one of the most exciting events in the history of metal music in Krasnoyarsk.
Two months after the above events are having problems with the rehearsal room, resulting in a group of homeless. Began a long, fruitless search for a place for rehearsals, lingering for a year. During this time, Harmony In Grotesque existed only in theory, but that did not prevent its members together to meet February 28, 2000 to roughly two-year anniversary mark, by which time the 9 months as the team did not rehearse. Finally, in early summer 2000 the site was found, however Pluha again without warning out of town for an indefinite period. In addition, Olga had decided to leave the group, explaining it to my growing up (and it is - being in the 4 - 7 years younger than all the other members of the Harmony In Grotesque) and changing social values. As a result of childhood continued to engage in a trio of founders of the group. And in early August 2000 they were joined by relatively young but budding guitarist Rip. The machine Harmony In Grotesque again began to gain momentum.
November 10, 2000 Harmony In Grotesque with a mass of adventures went on their first tour in Novosibirsk. 11/11/2000 they gave a concert at a local MCC "Pioneer", appearing on stage with the Novosibirsk teams "trunk", "Delirium Tremins" and "Demon Project". This was the stage debut for guitarist Rip'a. Novosibirsk Harmonies public accepted quite warm. Overall performance can certainly be called successful. After the concert was given by an interview with local television. Also, mysteriously lost 2 (Dva!!) Camera, inside each of which contained a film with the footage, embodying our tour.
December 10, 2000, after nearly two year hiatus, Harmony In Grotesque came on the scene in his native Krasnoyarsk in the frame of "X-Treme Terror", which took place at the club "OxigenO2". On this day favored over twenty local groups and our old friends from Novosibirsk - "Demon Project". Organization of the concert, as you might expect with such a large number of speakers was clearly not up to par. An enormous crowd of musicians (over a hundred people!) Raced there - here and, if it were not for our Siberian friends "Demon Project", after accomplishing so long journey for the sake of this speech and no one except Harmony In Grotesque in Krasnoyarsk had no friends, we would probably refused this intervention. In addition, there are people who (forgive us our lack of modesty!) Said that it was solely on us. As a result of the nineteenth - the account at two o'clock we went on stage. People, totally overfed hardcore, of course, tired. But found a number of individuals loyal to heavy metal music that was encouraged in spite of fatigue, were cut by us, for which sincere thanks to them! And Harmony In Grotesque, pretty well having played his program, completely exhausted, went home, in order to abuse alcohol, together with Novosibirsk guests.
The Second Coming of the city of Novosibirsk was held 2/10/01, when we were invited to the so-called Mortisfest, in which apart from Harmony In Grotesque involved three teams of Slavgorod, Tank, Free Shatilova and Aura (incidentally, note the last name guys very talented performing painful techno - death) and three local groups; Dalayn, Exmortis, Werwolf. This time the irrepressible Harmony brought relations with the Green Serpent, which began in the train and continued throughout the concert day. As a result, half of what not to play, but also to stand confidently on stage was a challenge. In addition, sound engineers have brought to the dominant volume of just this half drunk (vocals and bass), while the sounds produced from his instrument completely sober guitarist, completely absent. Not to say that a statement was quite none, but it too good not name. Well, as they say, sorry, sorry ... okay. Once, we were approached by people who were at our first concert in Novosibirsk three months ago, then we really liked, were interested in the causes of our current, relatively unsuccessful performance, and expressed sympathy.
March 3, 2001 Harmony In Grotesque again played at home in Krasnoyarsk, in the Officers' House, in concert Rock - Zona organized by ATP and held under the motto "Rock against drugs." In spite of all the pathos of the planned action has not been without explicit institutional excesses. During his speech, the second command (which turned out to be "Storm") began to powder her brains concert apparatus. It turned out that burned so-called "tweeters" responsible for the high frequencies. As a result, a number of alleged teams (who at least try to check out, and some never leaving the scene), dropped their request. There are two brave men: half-baked brutallisty Vaginal Massacre and Harmony In Grotesque (the last few be adjusted to a repertoire of technical difficulties encountered). Quite well for a debut with such a sound made by the VM Crazy music and totally crazy behavior on stage vocalist Napalm'a. The latest came Harmony In Grotesque and tripled otvyaz sheer, with the help of crazy hair dryers, occupied the stage. From nowhere came over - at least decent sound. Hall was just standing on the ears, one thing on the orders of the public (it was a cover song of Brujeria) even had to perform a second time. Full underground! (Who were there will understand what I mean).
Throughout the three-year history of a Harmony In Grotesque, of course like any other respectable teams, not just the question arose about recording audio. But the constant lack of money, and chronic raspizdyaystvo all group members led to the fact that at that time they did not have any less - or less decently written things (although the material has accumulated decent), except for the mountains of rehearsal tapes, the quality of competing with albums Darkthrone, recorded on tape, "Spring"! We found the studio, in which Harmony In Grotesque by almost 100% were to enter the first few weeks of the new millennium, well covered, neatly in front of our visits to her. However, towards the creation of a demo - a material band continued to work.
April 21, 2001 opened the first festival of heavy music Death Location (which at the moment has passed for 13) in the auditorium of the Faculty of History KSPU, organized by Anton, vocalist Harmony In Grotesque. This concert was very bad to recoup, so that the audience demanded a supplement. Encore was played a cover version of Brujeria (Salsola of three things), which for 5 years continuously present in the set list of the group.
That same spring, joins the band keyboardist - Nick. Until the end of the year a lot of material is processed under the keys, some of the songs vary greatly. In music there are more atmospheric. But the concerts the group leaves. During this period the band performed several times in Krasnoyarsk and the first leaves in the closed city of the region. The first was Zheleznogorsk, and autumn leaves in the group at the annual festival Zelenogorsk "Drozh", where the participating groups from different parts of Russia (though this is mostly Siberian team). After the speech, the team goes to relax and take a variety of excesses in the local rock club, "Resuscitation", a well-known outside the city.
The following 2002 was marked by many events for the group, despite the almost complete lack of concerts.
First, the group appears in the spring of a permanent home: his own rap point in a projection room of the former DK Sibtyazhmash, from their own efforts have been uprooted mnogopudovye projectors. This point has found refuge of many groups of Krasnoyarsk playing heavy music in different directions, from the metal core is and finishing by Black.
Secondly, in the summer, a second guitarist, so that again significantly processed material. Appear solo party. New blood, new songs. Without waiting for the recording, the band begins work on new material. Presentation of the guitar and the new song is on the second Death Location, who moved to the "History Faculty 'cinema in the Motherland, where he obtained a residence permit for several years. Only in 2006, Rodin and Death Location longer be synonymous. The full composition of this period: Oleg - drums, Tim - bass, Anton - vocals, Rip - Guitar, Nick - keys, Eugene - guitar.
Third, finally began serious preparations to record their first album. In December 2002, Oleg and Tim go to Zheleznogorsk for recording drums, on the basis of our good friends, a group Wergeld. However, other instruments had to wait their turn as much till the autumn of next year. And he passed in 2003 with the next update. The group appeared vocalist Katya, who adds a little color to the music of Harmony in Grotesque. Until the fall of the group continues to work on new material and rehearsing with Katya old stuff to get ready record.
Harmony in Grotesque in autumn begin to write the remaining instruments in the Rip home studio. In November, finally, the album "Cold sowing seeds of death" saw the light. The work was not easy, was killed by a lot of time and nerves. The quality turned out pretty well (expected worse.) Presentation of the album on November 15, at the next gig Death Location, cinema Rodina. All hire "a bang": the sea of beer, friendly group slemyaschiesya fans.
2004 went to work on new material and gigs. Set list group composed mostly of old material, but the group gradually dilute it with new songs. Of the songs took the audience well, and some took place in a state of shock, such as "and it was Cho?!". Around it were read in the eyes of the audience, for example, after the presentation of the song Demo (n) graphic Blast Of Gods. In October, Harmony in Grotesque went to explore a new city. At this time Kansk. Unfortunately, this trip was marred two events. First, the Eugene-inflicted serious bodily injury to a bus podskolznuvshis than almost tore the speech. Secondly, during a speech in which the public has taken quite warm group sound in the middle of the second song off the sound. The only thing that has pleased us at the moment is the support of fans, when Harmony had already descended into the hall.
In 2005, Harmony in Grotesque began recording demos of new material, simultaneously opening up new venues, along with speaking Mortem, Abortarium, Apokefale, Exventer. October 9 opening for the masters of the genre, the Austrian group Pungent Stench, Harmony in Grotesque present at the court of public Honourable revised version covers of many already love Brujerizmo, with guest vocals by Anna Boretskaya - vocalist Nettles. Everything turned out quite well. Thank you Anna! Negative event of the year, was long occupied with expulsion from the rehearsal space. Thus, new haven Harmonies for a while became a point of Cabalieros, hosted within the same DC Sibtyazhmash.
In early 2006, Oleg and Eugene cross the threshold of the studio GB rec, to record the drums for a second full-length. While held pre-reduction of drums began to prepare a new (even for the third album) material. At this time the band went further away from the roots okoloblekovyh first album, the music slowed down considerably and become more complex, sometimes plunging into the depths of funeral doom. Meaning of the word grotesque in the name of the group begins to manifest itself more clearly in the works. In the spring, lead singer, Anton goes to watch on Sakhalin. However, he continued to hold concerts, raiding in Krasnoyarsk. In August, the open-air, organized by friends of Harmony in Grotesque, a group of Alley, accordion playing exclusively new material, while - in the form of instrumentals. In this situation, that did not stop work on new material, the group welcomes a new member. Vocalist for the third album project, it becomes Paul. His baptism of fire is held in late fall, at a concert in k / m motherland. From this year ordeal of starting the search for a permanent rehearsal point, now in the building of vocational schools im.Astafeva.
By recording the second album, tools, Harmony in Grotesque begin in the spring of 2007. During one visit to Anton, the group plans to record vocals for this album.Лучший альбом слушаю его уже не первый год всем рекомендую..

История Harmony In Grotesque
Официальным днем рождения группы можно считать последний день суровой зимы 1998 года, когда имела место первая полноценная репетиция в приспособленных для этого условиях, в составе, до сегодняшнего дня остающимся костяком команды: Тимофей(бас, автор подавляющего большинства музыкальных идей), Антон(вокал) и Олег(ударные). С тех пор 28 февраля каждого года группой исправно и добросовестно празднуется очередная годовщина. На счет будущей стилистики особых разногласий не возникало: все сошлись на том, что музыка должна быть тяжёлой, мрачной, в меру мелодичной и в меру завёрнутой. С самого начала возникли проблемы с гитаристом. Оказалось, что в почти миллионном городе сложно найти индивидуума музыкально, идеологически и чисто по - человечески подходящего. На роль дёргателя шести струн был избран Pluha (студент музыкального училища). Однако, кроме умения играть Баха и Прокофьева он обладал ещё одним поразительным талантом - исчезать в самый неподходящий момент в ни для кого из оставшихся членов группы неизвестном направлении. Как раз этим своим даром он и неприменул вскоре воспользоваться. После этого состав некоторое время лихорадило. В группу даже пробовался Иван Murder со своим безладовым басом, однако экспериментаторство с двумя басами и без единой гитары дальнейшего продолжения не получило.
Наконец, где - то в мае 1998 в Harmony In Grotesque на роль гитариста пришёл Виталя, а всего полмесяца спустя: 6.06.98 (не правда - ли, замечательная дата, тем более если учесть, что концерт начинался в 6 часов вечера и название группы на афише было напечатано шестым по счету) новоиспечённая команда дебютировала на концерте "Рок за экологию". Выступление постигла закономерная участь первого блина. Благодаря малому количеству совместных репетиций с новым гитаристом, а также уникальным способностям звукорежиссёра, группа отыграла весьма неудачно. Невразумительно пожужжав минут двадцать, расстроенные Гармонии сошли со сцены. После такого дебюта невольно возникли мысли о роспуске группы, однако, немного подумав, командой было принято совместное решение продолжать дальше назло всем проискам Фортуны, недоброжелателям и суровым погодным условиям сибирской природы (а скорее, благодаря последним).
В группу была взята не по годам одарённая клавишница Ольга. Также по ряду музыкальных и личных разногласий из коллектива ушёл (читай: был изгнан) Виталий. В группу вернулся блудный Pluha, и команда в обновлённом составе (Тимофей - бас, Антон - вокал, Ольга - клавишные, Олег - ударные, Pluha - гитара), а также попутно сменив репетиционную базу, приступает к созданию нового материала.
Свежая программа группы была обнародована 13 марта 1999 года в "R - клубе". В качестве сессионного вокалиста на одной из вещей группы, именуемой "Cold Siberia" свою партию великолепно исполнил старый знакомый группы Napalm. На том же концерте Тимофей и Олег отработали в качестве ритм - секции в подававшем большие надежды (но, к сожалению, безвременно отдавшим концы) проекте "Broken Wings". Выступления и той и другой команд удались на славу. Об этом концерте не перестают вспоминать уже спустя годы, как об одном из самых ярких событий в истории красноярской металлической музыки.
Спустя два месяца после вышеуказанных событий возникли проблемы с репетиционной базой, в результате чего группа осталась без крова. Начались длительные, безрезультатные поиски места для репетиций, затянувшиеся на целый год. В течении всего этого времени Harmony In Grotesque существовала лишь теоретически, что однако не помешало её участникам дружно собраться 28 февраля 2000 года чтобы бурно отметить двухлетний юбилей, к тому времени уже 9 месяцев как не репетировавшей команды. Наконец, в начале лета 2000 года место было найдено, однако Pluha вновь без предупреждения уехал из города на неопределённый срок. К тому же Ольга сообщила о своём решении покинуть группу, мотивировав это своим взрослением (и это - будучи на 4 - 7 лет моложе всех остальных членов Harmony In Grotesque) и сменой жизненных ценностей. В результате детством продолжили заниматься лишь троица основоположников коллектива. А в начале августа 2000 года к ним присоединился относительно юный, но подающий надежды гитарист Rip. После этого машина Harmony In Grotesque вновь начала набирать обороты.
10 Ноября 2000 года Harmony In Grotesque с массой приключений отправились на свои первые гастроли в Новосибирск. 11.11.2000 они дали концерт в местном МКЦ "Пионер", выступив на одной сцене с новосибирскими командами "Ствол", "Delirium Tremins" и "Demon Project". Это был сценический дебют для гитариста Rip'а. Новосибирская публика приняла Гармоний довольно тепло. В целом выступление, безусловно, можно назвать удачным. После концерта было дано интервью местному телевиденью. Также, мистическим образом были потеряны 2 (Два!!!) фотоаппарата, внутри каждого из которых содержались плёнки с кадрами, запечатлевшими наше турне.
10 декабря 2000 года, после почти двух летнего перерыва Harmony In Grotesque вышли на сцену в родном Красноярске в рамках акции "X-Treme Terror", прошедшая в клубе "OxigenO2". В этот день выступало свыше двадцати групп местного значения и наши старые знакомые из Новосибирска - "Demon Project". Организация концерта, как и следовало ожидать при таком большом количестве выступавших была явно не на высоте. Громадную толпу музыкантов (свыше ста человек!) гоняли туда - сюда и, если бы не наши Новосибирские товарищи "Demon Project", проделавшие столь далекий путь ради этого выступления и никого, кроме Harmony In Grotesque в Красноярске знакомых не имевшие, мы бы пожалуй, отказались от этого выступления. Кроме того, встречались люди, которые (да простят нам нашу нескромность!) говорили, что пришли исключительно на нас. В результате девятнадцатыми по - счету в два часа ночи мы вышли на сцену. Народ, тотально перекормленный хардкором, безусловно, устал. Однако нашёлся ряд индивидуумов, преданных тяжёлой музыки, которые с воодушевлением не смотря на усталость, рубились под нас, за что искреннее им спасибо! А Harmony In Grotesque, вполне прилично отыграв свою программу, совершенно измотанные, отправились домой, дабы злоупотребить алкоголем вместе с новосибирскими гостями.
Второе пришествие группы в город Новосибирск состоялось 10.02.01 г., когда мы были приглашены на так называемый Mortisfest, в котором кроме Harmony In Grotesque принимали участие три команды из города Славгород; Танк, Бес Шатилова и Аура (кстати,обратите внимание на последнее имя, парни весьма талантливо исполняют болезненный techno - death) и три местные группы; Далайн, Exmortis, Werwolf. На этот раз Гармонию подвели неуемные взаимоотношения с Зелёным Змием, начавшиеся еще в поезде и продолжавшиеся в течение всего концертного дня. В результате половине группы не то что играть, но и стоять уверенно на сцене составило определенные трудности. Вдобавок, звукорежиссёры вывели на доминирующую громкость как раз эту пьяную половину (вокал и бас), в то время как звуки, извлекаемые из своего инструмента абсолютно трезвым гитаристом, напрочь отсутствовали. Не сказать, что бы выступление было совсем никаким, однако удачным его тоже не назовешь. Что ж, как говорится, обидно, досадно... ну ладно. После, к нам подходили люди, бывшие на нашем первом концерте в Новосибирске три месяца назад, которым мы тогда очень понравились, интересовались причинами нашего нынешнего, относительно неудачного выступления и выражали сочувствие.
3 марта 2001 года Harmony In Grotesque снова выступали на родине в Красноярске, в Доме офицеров, в рамках концерта Rock - Zona организованного СПС и прошедшего под лозунгом "Рок против наркотиков". Не смотря на всю пафосность намечаемой акции не обошлось без явных организационных эксцессов. Во время выступления второй команды (которыми оказались "Шторм") начал пудрить мозги концертный аппарат. Оказалось, что сгорели так называемые "пищалки", ответственные за высокие частоты. В результате ряд заявленных команд (кто хотя бы попытавшись отстроиться, а кто и вообще не выходя на сцену) отказались от выступления. Остались двое смельчаков: новоиспечённые бруталлисты Vaginal Massacre и Harmony In Grotesque (последние несколько подкорректировав репертуар под возникшие технические трудности). Вполне достойно для дебюта при таком звуке выступили V.M. Безумная музыка и совершенно безумное поведение на сцене вокалиста Napalm'а. Последними вышли Harmony In Grotesque и утроили полнейший отвяз, не без помощи безумных фенов, оккупировавших сцену. Откуда ни возьмись появился более - менее приличный саунд. Зал просто стоял на ушах, одну вещь по заказам публики (ей оказалась кавер-композиция группы Brujeria) даже пришлось исполнить во второй раз. Полный андеграунд! (кто был там, тот поймет, что я имею в виду).
За всю трёхлетнюю историю существования у Harmony In Grotesque, естественно как и любой другой уважающей себя команды, не раз вставал вопрос о записи аудиоматериала. Однако постоянное отсутствие денег и хроническое распиздяйство всех членов группы привело к тому, что на тот момент они не имели ни одной мало - мальски прилично записанной вещи (хотя материала накопилось прилично), за исключением горы репетиционных лент, по качеству конкурирующих с альбомами Darkthrone, записанными на магнитофон "Весна"! Найденная нами студия, в которою Harmony In Grotesque почти на 100% должны были войти в первые недели нового тысячелетия, благополучно накрылась, аккуратно перед нашим в неё визитом. Однако, в направлении создания демо - материала группа продолжала работать.
21 апреля 2001 года открывается первый фестиваль тяжелой музыки Death Location (которых на текущий момент прошло уже 13) в актовом зале Исторического Факультета КГПУ, организатором которого стал Антон, вокалист Harmony In Grotesque. Этот концерт был весьма недурно отыгран, вследствие чего аудитория требовала добавки. На бис была сыграна кавер версия группы Brujeria (солянка из трех вещей), которая в течении 5 лет постоянно присутствовала в сет листе группы.
Этой же весной к группе присоединяется клавишница – Ника. До конца года перерабатывается большое количество материала под клавиши, некоторые песни сильно изменяются. В музыки появляется больше атмосферности. Но и концертную деятельность группа не оставляет. За этот период группа выступает несколько раз в Красноярске и первый раз выезжает в закрытые города края. Первым был Железногорск, а осенью группа выезжает в Зеленогорск на ежегодый фестиваль «Дрожъ», где принимают участие группы из разных уголков России (хотя преимущественно это сибирские команды). После выступления, коллектив отправляется отдыхать и принимать различные излишества в местный рок клуб «Реанимация», хорошо известный за пределами города.
Следующий 2002 год знаменуется многими событиями для группы, не смотря на практически полное отсутствие концертов.
Во-первых, весной у группы появляется постоянное жилище: своя реп точка в бывшей проекторной комнате ДК СибТяжМаш, откуда собственными усилиями были выкорчеваны многопудовые кинопроекторы. Эта точка нашла прибежище многих красноярских групп играющих тяжелую музыку разных направлений, начиная метал-кором и заканчивая блэком.
Во-вторых, летом появляется второй гитарист, вследствие чего опять ощутимо перерабатывается материал. Появляются соло партии. Новая кровь, новые песни. Не дожидаясь начала записи, группа приступает к работе над новым материалом. Презентация гитариста и новой песни проходит на втором Death Location, который переехал с «истфака» в кинотеатр Родина, где получил прописку на несколько лет. Только в 2006 году Родина и Death Location перестанут быть синонимами. Полный состав на этот период: Олег – ударные, Тимофей – бас, Антон – вокал, Rip – гитара, Ника – клавиши, Евгений – гитара.
В-третьих, наконец-то началась серьезная подготовка к записи первого альбома. В декабре 2002 года Олег и Тимофей отправляются в Железногорск для записи барабанов, на базе наших хороших товарищей, группы Wergeld. Однако остальным инструментам пришлось ждать своей очереди аж до осени следующего года. А сам 2003 год прошел с очередным обновлением. В группе появилась вокалистка Катя, которая добавляет еще немного красок в музыку Harmony in Grotesque. До осени группа продолжает работать над новым материалом и репетирует с Катей старый материал, чтобы как следует подготовиться записи альбома.
Осенью Harmony in Grotesque приступают к записи оставшихся инструментов в Rip home studio. В ноябре, наконец-то, альбом “Cold sowing seeds of death” увидел свет. Работа была не из легких, была убита куча времени и нервов. Качество получилось довольно сносным (ожидалось хуже). Презентация альбома состоялась 15 ноября, на очередном концерте Death Location, в кинотеатре Родина. Все прокатило "на ура": море пива, дружественные группы, слэмящиеся фэны.
2004 год прошел в работе над новым материалом и концертами. Сет лист группы в основном состоял из старого материала, но группа понемногу разбавляла его новыми песнями. Часть песен публика принимала хорошо, а часть проходила в шоковом состоянии, типа «а чо это было!?». Примерно это читалось в глазах слушателей, например, после презентации песни Demo(n)graphic Blast Of Gods. В октябре Harmony in Grotesque отправилась осваивать новый город. На этот раз Канск. К сожалению, этот приезд омрачило два события. Во-первых, Евгений нанес себе тяжелые телесные повреждения, подскользнувшись перед автобусом, чем чуть не сорвал выступление. Во-вторых, во время выступления, в ходе которого публика достаточно тепло принимала группу, звукорежиссер в середине второй песни выключил звук. Единственное, что нас порадовало в тот момент, это поддержка фэнов, когда Гармонии уже спустились в зал.
В 2005 году Harmony in Grotesque приступили к демо-записи нового материала, попутно осваивая новые концертные площадки, выступая вместе с Mortem, Abortarium, Apokefale, Exventer. 9 октября на разогреве у мэтров жанра, австрийской группы Pungent Stench, Harmony in Grotesque представляют на суд достопочтенной публики переработанную версию многим уже полюбившегося кавера Brujerizmo, с гостевым вокалом Анны Борецкой - вокалистки группы Крапива. Все вышло вполне удачно. Спасибо Анне! Отрицательным событием года, явилось изгнание с насиженного репетиционного места. Таким образом, новым пристанищем Гармоний на некоторое время стала точка группы Cabalieros, дислоцирующаяся в том же ДК СибТяжМаш.
В начале 2006 года Олег и Евгений переступают порог студии GB rec, чтобы записать барабаны для второго полноформатника. Пока проходило пре-сведение барабанов, началась подготовка нового (уже для третьего альбома) материала. В этот раз группа ушла еще дальше от околоблэковых корней первого альбома, и музыка заметно замедлилась и усложнилась, местами погружаясь в пучины funeral doom. Значение слова grotesque в названии группы начинает все отчетливее проявляться в творчестве. Весной, вокалист группы Антон, уезжает на вахту на Сахалин. Однако, он продолжает устраивать концерты, совершая набеги в Красноярск. В августе, на open-air, организованном друзьями Harmony in Grotesque, группой Alley, Гармонисты играют исключительно новый материал, пока - в виде инструментала. В создавшейся ситуации, дабы не останавливалась работа над новым материалом, группа приглашает нового участника. Вокалистом на третий проектный альбом, становится Павел. Его боевое крещение проходит поздней осенью, на одном из концертов в к/т Родина. С этого года начинаются мытарства группы с поисками постоянной репетиционной точки, теперь уже в здании ПТУ им.Астафьева.
К записи инструментов ко второму альбому, Harmony in Grotesque приступают только весной 2007 года. Во время очередного приезда Антона, группа планирует записать вокал для этого альбома.
The official birthday of the last day may be considered harsh winter of 1998, when there was a first full rehearsal for the fittest in terms of composition, to this day remains the backbone of the team: Tim (bass, by the vast majority of musical ideas), Anton (vocals) and Oleg (drums). Since February 28 of each year, the group regularly and faithfully celebrated the anniversary. At the expense of future special style differences do not exist: all agreed that music should be heavy, dark, fairly melodic and wrapped in a measure. From the outset, had problems with a guitarist. It turned out that almost one million city is hard to find individual musically and ideologically pure on - the right human. On the role of Pinger six strings was elected Pluha (College of Music student). However, besides the ability to play Bach and Prokofiev, he had another astounding talent - to disappear at the most inopportune moment for any of the remaining members of the group to an unknown destination. Just this his gift and he soon neprimenul use. After some time of this fever. The group even tried to Ivan Murder with his fretless bass, but experimentation with two basses and guitars without any further extension is not received.
Lastly, where - in May 1998 in Harmony In Grotesque on the role of guitarist came Vital, and only a fortnight later: 06.06.98 (not true - whether the remarkable date, especially considering that the concert began at 6 o'clock in the evening and group name the poster was printed in the sixth), the newly formed team debuted at the concert "Rock for the environment." Speech by the logical fate befell the first pancake. Due to the small number of joint rehearsals with new guitarist, as well as unique abilities engineer, the band played very badly. Unintelligible pozhuzhzhav twenty minutes, the frustrated Harmony left the scene. After this debut could not help having second thoughts about dissolving the group, but a little thought, the team was a joint decision to continue on to spite of all the intrigues of Fortune, detractors and harsh weather conditions of Siberian nature (or rather, due to the latter).
The group was taken precocious gifted keyboardist, Olga. Also, a number of musical and personal differences of the team went (read: he was expelled), Vitaly. The group returned prodigal Pluha, and a new line-up team (Tim - bass, Anton - vocal, Olga - keyboards, Oleg - drums, Pluha - guitar), and simultaneously changing the rehearsal, begins to create new material.
Fresh program group was released March 13, 1999 in "R - club." In a session vocalist on one of the things the group, called "Cold Siberia" played his part magnificently old friend of Napalm. At the same concert, Timothy and Oleg worked as a rhythm - section to cast more hope (but, sadly, gave their untimely ends) project "Broken Wings". Performances of these two teams failed to fame. On this concert, do not stop to think have over the years as one of the most exciting events in the history of metal music in Krasnoyarsk.
Two months after the above events are having problems with the rehearsal room, resulting in a group of homeless. Began a long, fruitless search for a place for rehearsals, lingering for a year. During this time, Harmony In Grotesque existed only in theory, but that did not prevent its members together to meet February 28, 2000 to roughly two-year anniversary mark, by which time the 9 months as the team did not rehearse. Finally, in early summer 2000 the site was found, however Pluha again without warning out of town for an indefinite period. In addition, Olga had decided to leave the group, explaining it to my growing up (and it is - being in the 4 - 7 years younger than all the other members of the Harmony In Grotesque) and changing social values. As a result of childhood continued to engage in a trio of founders of the group. And in early August 2000 they were joined by relatively young but budding guitarist Rip. The machine Harmony In Grotesque again began to gain momentum.
November 10, 2000 Harmony In Grotesque with a mass of adventures went on their first tour in Novosibirsk. 11/11/2000 they gave a concert at a local MCC "Pioneer", appearing on stage with the Novosibirsk teams "trunk", "Delirium Tremins" and "Demon Project". This was the stage debut for guitarist Rip'a. Novosibirsk Harmonies public accepted quite warm. Overall performance can certainly be called successful. After the concert was given by an interview with local television. Also, mysteriously lost 2 (Dva!!) Camera, inside each of which contained a film with the footage, embodying our tour.
December 10, 2000, after nearly two year hiatus, Harmony In Grotesque came on the scene in his native Krasnoyarsk in the frame of "X-Treme Terror", which took place at the club "OxigenO2". On this day favored over twenty local groups and our old friends from Novosibirsk - "Demon Project". Organization of the concert, as you might expect with such a large number of speakers was clearly not up to par. An enormous crowd of musicians (over a hundred people!) Raced there - here and, if it were not for our Siberian friends "Demon Project", after accomplishing so long journey for the sake of this speech and no one except Harmony In Grotesque in Krasnoyarsk had no friends, we would probably refused this intervention. In addition, there are people who (forgive us our lack of modesty!) Said that it was solely on us. As a result of the nineteenth - the account at two o'clock we went on stage. People, totally overfed hardcore, of course, tired. But found a number of individuals loyal to heavy metal music that was encouraged in spite of fatigue, were cut by us, for which sincere thanks to them! And Harmony In Grotesque, pretty well having played his program, completely exhausted, went home, in order to abuse alcohol, together with Novosibirsk guests.
The Second Coming of the city of Novosibirsk was held 2/10/01, when we were invited to the so-called Mortisfest, in which apart from Harmony In Grotesque involved three teams of Slavgorod, Tank, Free Shatilova and Aura (incidentally, note the last name guys very talented performing painful techno - death) and three local groups; Dalayn, Exmortis, Werwolf. This time the irrepressible Harmony brought relations with the Green Serpent, which began in the train and continued throughout the concert day. As a result, half of what not to play, but also to stand confidently on stage was a challenge. In addition, sound engineers have brought to the dominant volume of just this half drunk (vocals and bass), while the sounds produced from his instrument completely sober guitarist, completely absent. Not to say that a statement was quite none, but it too good not name. Well, as they say, sorry, sorry ... okay. Once, we were approached by people who were at our first concert in Novosibirsk three months ago, then we really liked, were interested in the causes of our current, relatively unsuccessful performance, and expressed sympathy.
March 3, 2001 Harmony In Grotesque again played at home in Krasnoyarsk, in the Officers' House, in concert Rock - Zona organized by ATP and held under the motto "Rock against drugs." In spite of all the pathos of the planned action has not been without explicit institutional excesses. During his speech, the second command (which turned out to be "Storm") began to powder her brains concert apparatus. It turned out that burned so-called "tweeters" responsible for the high frequencies. As a result, a number of alleged teams (who at least try to check out, and some never leaving the scene), dropped their request. There are two brave men: half-baked brutallisty Vaginal Massacre and Harmony In Grotesque (the last few be adjusted to a repertoire of technical difficulties encountered). Quite well for a debut with such a sound made by the VM Crazy music and totally crazy behavior on stage vocalist Napalm'a. The latest came Harmony In Grotesque and tripled otvyaz sheer, with the help of crazy hair dryers, occupied the stage. From nowhere came over - at least decent sound. Hall was just standing on the ears, one thing on the orders of the public (it was a cover song of Brujeria) even had to perform a second time. Full underground! (Who were there will understand what I mean).
Throughout the three-year history of a Harmony In Grotesque, of course like any other respectable teams, not just the question arose about recording audio. But the constant lack of money, and chronic raspizdyaystvo all group members led to the fact that at that time they did not have any less - or less decently written things (although the material has accumulated decent), except for the mountains of rehearsal tapes, the quality of competing with albums Darkthrone, recorded on tape, "Spring"! We found the studio, in which Harmony In Grotesque by almost 100% were to enter the first few weeks of the new millennium, well covered, neatly in front of our visits to her. However, towards the creation of a demo - a material band continued to work.
April 21, 2001 opened the first festival of heavy music Death Location (which at the moment has passed for 13) in the auditorium of the Faculty of History KSPU, organized by Anton, vocalist Harmony In Grotesque. This concert was very bad to recoup, so that the audience demanded a supplement. Encore was played a cover version of Brujeria (Salsola of three things), which for 5 years continuously present in the set list of the group.
That same spring, joins the band keyboardist - Nick. Until the end of the year a lot of material is processed under the keys, some of the songs vary greatly. In music there are more atmospheric. But the concerts the group leaves. During this period the band performed several times in Krasnoyarsk and the first leaves in the closed city of the region. The first was Zheleznogorsk, and autumn leaves in the group at the annual festival Zelenogorsk "Drozh", where the participating groups from different parts of Russia (though this is mostly Siberian team). After the speech, the team goes to relax and take a variety of excesses in the local rock club, "Resuscitation", a well-known outside the city.
The following 2002 was marked by many events for the group, despite the almost complete lack of concerts.
First, the group appears in the spring of a permanent home: his own rap point in a projection room of the former DK Sibtyazhmash, from their own efforts have been uprooted mnogopudovye projectors. This point has found refuge of many groups of Krasnoyarsk playing heavy music in different directions, from the metal core is and finishing by Black.
Secondly, in the summer, a second guitarist, so that again significantly processed material. Appear solo party. New blood, new songs. Without waiting for the recording, the band begins work on new material. Presentation of the guitar and the new song is on the second Death Location, who moved to the "History Faculty 'cinema in the Motherland, where he obtained a residence permit for several years. Only in 2006, Rodin and Death Location longer be synonymous. The full composition of this period: Oleg - drums, Tim - bass, Anton - vocals, Rip - Guitar, Nick - keys, Eugene - guitar.
Third, finally began serious preparations to record their first album. In December 2002, Oleg and Tim go to Zheleznogorsk for recording drums, on the basis of our good friends, a group Wergeld. However, other instruments had to wait their turn as much till the autumn of next year. And he passed in 2003 with the next update. The group appeared vocalist Katya, who adds a little color to the music of Harmony in Grotesque. Until the fall of the group continues to work on new material and rehearsing with Katya old stuff to get ready record.
Harmony in Grotesque in autumn begin to write the remaining instruments in the Rip home studio. In November, finally, the album "Cold sowing seeds of death" saw the light. The work was not easy, was killed by a lot of time and nerves. The quality turned out pretty well (expected worse.) Presentation of the album on November 15, at the next gig Death Location, cinema Rodina. All hire "a bang": the sea of beer, friendly group slemyaschiesya fans.
2004 went to work on new material and gigs. Set list group composed mostly of old material, but the group gradually dilute it with new songs. Of the songs took the audience well, and some took place in a state of shock, such as "and it was Cho?!". Around it were read in the eyes of the audience, for example, after the presentation of the song Demo (n) graphic Blast Of Gods. In October, Harmony in Grotesque went to explore a new city. At this time Kansk. Unfortunately, this trip was marred two events. First, the Eugene-inflicted serious bodily injury to a bus podskolznuvshis than almost tore the speech. Secondly, during a speech in which the public has taken quite warm group sound in the middle of the second song off the sound. The only thing that has pleased us at the moment is the support of fans, when Harmony had already descended into the hall.
In 2005, Harmony in Grotesque began recording demos of new material, simultaneously opening up new venues, along with speaking Mortem, Abortarium, Apokefale, Exventer. October 9 opening for the masters of the genre, the Austrian group Pungent Stench, Harmony in Grotesque present at the court of public Honourable revised version covers of many already love Brujerizmo, with guest vocals by Anna Boretskaya - vocalist Nettles. Everything turned out quite well. Thank you Anna! Negative event of the year, was long occupied with expulsion from the rehearsal space. Thus, new haven Harmonies for a while became a point of Cabalieros, hosted within the same DC Sibtyazhmash.
In early 2006, Oleg and Eugene cross the threshold of the studio GB rec, to record the drums for a second full-length. While held pre-reduction of drums began to prepare a new (even for the third album) material. At this time the band went further away from the roots okoloblekovyh first album, the music slowed down considerably and become more complex, sometimes plunging into the depths of funeral doom. Meaning of the word grotesque in the name of the group begins to manifest itself more clearly in the works. In the spring, lead singer, Anton goes to watch on Sakhalin. However, he continued to hold concerts, raiding in Krasnoyarsk. In August, the open-air, organized by friends of Harmony in Grotesque, a group of Alley, accordion playing exclusively new material, while - in the form of instrumentals. In this situation, that did not stop work on new material, the group welcomes a new member. Vocalist for the third album project, it becomes Paul. His baptism of fire is held in late fall, at a concert in k / m motherland. From this year ordeal of starting the search for a permanent rehearsal point, now in the building of vocational schools im.Astafeva.
By recording the second album, tools, Harmony in Grotesque begin in the spring of 2007. During one visit to Anton, the group plans to record vocals for this album.
The best album I listen to is not the first highly recommend ..
