COME WITH REVERSE
Come With Reverse EP
Come With Reverse is a Greek-based trio formed at Thessaloniki in 2010. Petros Leivadas, Alexander Lykesas and Alexander Passalides have received education in art music. As a consequence, their compositions are influenced by all kind of genres, ranging from Classical to traditional-ethnic sounds of several countries. They started as an experimental/avant-garde band which was led to the darker paths of Popular music later. The result of this process is their debut EP "Come With Reverse". They tried to change structure, orchestration and timbre elements which are distinctive of this music, turning its inherent banal feelings into trascendental vibes. There's no label for this atypical band. Although they could be associated to the northern Gothic Rock bands from the nineties, sharing remarkable similarities with Dronning Maud Land, their sound also has progressive hints and a certain ocher atmosphere is provided through the dark mid-tempos and Petros' deep, stony vocals. As far as the lyrics are concerned, they express the complexity of human being through its anthropological diversity. Their main aspiration in the future is approaching the different styles of universal music from their personal point of view, driving the established harmonies into their obscure reverse.
