Blindfold

about

There is more than one artist with this name: 1) Blindfold is made up of four young vivacious Icelandic Londoners' who have been creating their music that is drawing comparisons to Radiohead, Muse and Sigur Ros amongst others but with their own trademark sound and style. They have a passion for exploring new sounds and creating mesmerising songs, made by a vast mix of textures carefully crafted on only guitars (Sven), bass (Teitur) and drums (Friðrik). This alongside the enigmatic vocals of frontman & composer Biggi Hilmarsson is truly provoking and real. You have to experience them live and on record to understand why they will have real longevity and continued rave reviews. Blindfold are creating their own distinctive and un-paralleled cross genre music. The debut album ‘Blindfold’ was received with un-precedented positive response and now their forthcoming new album is eagerly anticipated featuring the superb singles ‘Faking Dreams, Sad Face & Fit You‘ 2) Blindfold is a Hardcore band from Belgium. They were highly active in the underground hardcore scene around Kortrijk in the mid to late nineties (H-8000 scene). They played a blend of hardcore and emo with smart political and personal lyrics and lived a drug free lifestyle. Thus their music was aptly self-proclaimed “Sober Mind Meditation”. They toured Europe a few times, most notably being the tour with Congress and Liar called Steel Against Steel. They released two full-lengths, a couple of 7”s and a live LP call
