About Klonque
Founded early in 2015, KLONQUE is a German based progressive metal group hailing from Berlin and Frankfurt. The group is fronted by Thomas Neitsch (Holy Moses) and Peter Geltat (Holy Moses), both on lead guitars and vocals. KLONQUE is completed by Gerd Lücking (Holy Moses, ex Courageous) on drums and Ishay Sommer (The Outside) on Bass.
After playing thrash together for 20 years, Thomas and Peter have evolved from being side men to front men, both taking on guitars and vocals. Fueled by the desire to create hard, fast and complex metal, they started combining death, thrash, black and progressive technical elements.
Because the two have been friends and bandmates since high school, songwriting together is second nature. Thomas exchanged his bass guitar, which he wielded for most roles over the last years, for a 12 string guitar.
Peter: "People don't really know it, but Thomas is a really great guitar player. He wrote a lot of the riffs and songs for Redefined Mayhem."
Since the foundation of KLONQUE, four instrumental playthrough videos have been released on YouTube ( https://goo.gl/WcAZjd ). Vocals have been recorded with the songs.
Thomas: "We discovered that our voices fit really well together, when we made pre-production for Holy Moses Redefined Mayhem. With KLONQUE we try to go further and include more melodical lines. As the Beauty and the Beast, but instead of the Beauty just… well, two furry beasts".
KLONQUE incorporates a variety of metal elements into their compositions. Each song is layered heavily in thrash, with grooving bass licks, interweaved progressive solos, and traces of death and black metal all tied together with the accelerated pace of the drums.
It is clear that bands such as The Haunted, Mastodon, Extol and Gojira have a heavy influence on these compositions. Thomas and Peter are able to translate their musical ideas into vocal expressions. The lyrical themes range from philosophical nihilism and horror to political criticism against nazi fucktards.Thomas growls disdainfully whilst Peter screams about the naked realities of this world. The visual images conjured by these lyrics are intended to provoke critical thought.
KLONQUE is now self-releasing the complete versions with vocals as a four-track EP this August, 2016.
