 La Otracina
"la otracina began in a murky brooklyn basement in 2003, inspired by a
love of all things heavy and psychedelic! founded by drummer adam kriney
and guitarist joshua anzano (now of titan/tee pee records), they forged
a musical universe of epic progressive rock and psychotic free-form improvisations! along their 5 year trip, la otracina released handfuls
of limited edition recordings on kriney's own colour sounds recordings
label building a solid fanbase in the underground psych/experimental scene and
in 2007 thier debut full length cd "tonal ellipse of the one"
was released on the holy mountain record label.
"as a live entity, they've played extensively in their hometown of brooklyn,
ny, toured the usa 4 times and have toured italy as well performing alongside groups that span the worlds of psych/metal/prog/improv/noise
and beyond, including: boris, zoroaster, wooden shjips, the warlocks, sunburned hand of the man, these are powers, mouthus, plastic
crimewave sound, axolotl, assemble head in sunburst sound, cloudland canyon, upsilon acrux, charalambides, ghq, the phantom family
halo, warmer milks & more...
"the current line-up consists of kriney on drums and vocals, multi-instrumentalist
and recording engineer evan sobel on fender bass vi, and philippe ortanez on electric guitar.
"they are a majestic contemporary vision of progressive-psychedelic hard-rock,
seamlessly combining the awesome grace of king crimson and the heavy stoned
bliss of black sabbath with the cosmic textures of hawkwind and the undeniable
might of early metallica...not to mention some lessons learned from terry
riley and albert ayler along the way. they are the crystal wizards of the cosmic weird! they are la otracina!"
