A Candid Look At KNAPSACKHEROES!

By Gretchen Burton


There is a statement that could easily be made about music. This statement is that it affects almost everyone. You cannot seem to go anywhere these days without hearing music over speakers. You could wait along a sidewalk and people would gladly share with you what their favorite musical artists are, their favorite songs, and music related memories. Surely in this stint of interviews, you would hear the band name KNAPSACKHEROES!

You see, they are very likely working towards becoming one of the iconic bands mentioned above. Through the course of the paragraphs coming up, you are going to get a look at this band from a very candid perspective. Not only will you learn about what kind of music that they play, but you will also gain some perspective into where you can expect this band to be in the upcoming year.

There are plenty of different ways that people describe music and sounds. That is one of the problems with this band itself, is that it can be rather complicated to describe the entire package. It has been described through various facets now that their sound could be compared to the hooks and instrumentals of Duran Duran being crushed by Heavy D.

There are only a few groups in history that have been able to just put on all kinds of different hats and somehow make them sound better than the last choice. KNAPSACKHEROES! is kind of like that. You start to really dig one song, and the next song on their debut EP takes you in an entirely different direction. It is a refreshing glass of flavor in quite a bland scene. That might be a mix of sultry and addicting vocalizing mixed with a bit of rapping over the ambient instrumentation.

While there might be a number of ways to describe the sound, there is a pretty clear track as to where the band is headed currently. They are in contention against several other bands in a massive Battle of the Bands competition run by the Hard Rock Cafe. Each of four regions is presenting a pallet of bands, and each of the regions is able to send one band to a massive rock concert in the UK. The grand prize winner of the four finalists will get to play the main stage, while the other play indie sets.

If you are looking for a bit of refreshment from what popular music has become these days, you really are pretty likely to enjoy the tunes these guys bring to the table. Statistically speaking, assuming that they are among the finalists of one of four regions in this particular listed competition, they have already impressed a lot.

Perhaps the purpose of all of this reviewing would be to give you an opportunity to check out the group and get on board before its just commonplace to do so. Right now, they are still up and coming, but you can expect them to break away and make a name for themselves within a year.

KNAPSACKHEROES!
