There is the Subliminal demo with "Trinity Denied" and some other death metal songs that I think is their earliest recording. It's been out of print forever, but I think I might be able to find it somewhere. Post a Comment. I remember seeing Candiria when I first started going to shows.
At the time I had my standard education in metal through my mastery of Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, Megadeth, and Testament always the big 5 in my head at the time supplemented by the hardcore likes of Hatebreed, Sworn Enemy, Mushmouth and bands of that nature. While I still jam those bands quite frequently, my musical perspective was completely fucked the first time I saw Candiria.
Looking back now, as a musician, it all makes quite a bit of sense. However, as a 15 year old kid who thought double kick drums were the end-all-be-all of heavy music, my mind was quite perplexed by the shit Candiria was bringing to the table. I specifically remember getting caught in my own mosh on at least 5 different occasions during their set due to their fucked-up time signatures that I did not know existed at the time. Candiria, to this day, remains as the one-and-only band in which I prepared my mosh for prior to attending their shows.
You basically had to. I didn't get into Candiria until around whenever the band released their Process Of Self. Development full length on the infamous MIA Records ironic label name. In order to cover the band's process of self-development up until this point in their career, I'm going to switch over to a biography written up by some guy who, up until , ran the Angelfire-hosted Candiria fan page.
Mad respect to him for keeping the tradition alive for as long as he did. For a bit of a trip down memory lane of hardcore-on-the-internet prior to unlimited bandwidth, pay your respects to his work right here.
I can almost do it but there's always that one bastard riff in every song that I can't get! And obviously you're here to learn more about the band, so I'll stop rambling now and give you some meat about the Brooklyn quintet It is , Brooklyn, New York. In a rehearsal studio, Eric Mathews, Chris Puma, Carley Coma, Kenneth Schalk and original bassist Matt Holt come together week after week to dictate the beginnings of what they understand to be music. All five of them were seriously focused on changing the face of heavy music.
Inspired from all directions, Candiria was ready to hit the laboratory and experiment with a new musical formula. From that, the song was to be like a beautifully written novel-an introduction leading to a well defined, in-depth and expansively informative body that brings you smoothly and excitingly through the conclusion and off to the back cover for the "about the author.
Candiria was growing musically, and had the impetus to move forward but faced a few hurdles One of them being the issue of a bass player. Candiria had 2 bass players after Matt left in the spring of It was winter and the band just watched their 3rd bassist leave and decided to go on without one. They had been playing around the city for the past year and gave out about or copies of their Subliminal.
The band had too much momentum to start looking for a fourth bass player. The first album, Surrealistic Madness was originally warranted to be a demo also, but the band had generated a good enough buzz at that point to interest Too Damn Hype records in releasing their music. The hard work and unique vision was beginning to get recognized. The second album Beyond Reasonable Doubt was created with the same line-up, and on this album, the bass lines were executed by Eric, and Ken.
Still no bass player. Candiria continued to play live shows, but the low end was missing and it just wasn't right The Candiria line-up was forced to make change when Chris Puma became impatient with the bass situation, and for some unknown personal reasons, left the band. Candiria had to let him go. Candiria then recruited friend John Lamacchia, who was in a band called Dead Air. Since Dead Air was calling it quits, and happened to rehearse in the same studio as Candiria, they asked John to join, and he did.
MacIvor was honored to play with Merauder at first, but as time passed wanted to go in a more open-ended direction. He was always a fan of Candiria, and when they asked him to join, he couldn't refuse. The five members have now fortified, and remain a constant entity since Development was released , both in their own respect are different, yet all contain elements of fusion, metal, ambience, jazz, rap, and urban madness. The sound produced by these cats is one that sincerely stands alone, by itself.
A major focus for Candiria is the off-beat practice of syncopation. Candiria is just the remedy we need in this world so full of pre-packaged aggression. To be unique in a market bonded by threads of anti-this, and anti-that, and "My life sucks" type songs, is truly something to savor. It almost seems that metal along with all Rock sub-genres combined, has found a complacent bowl of fruit to eat from. The inability to evolve musically, will be the self-destruction of what modern music is today.

Candiria shared dates over the next year with Dillinger Escape Plan, Diecast, Nonpoint, and more, while the band began work on their next album. Matthews wound up permanently leaving the band, and Coma, MacIvor, and Schalk eventually welcomed guitarist Eddie Ortiz into the mix.
As their album was nearing completion in August , however, Schalk announced his resignation from Candiria. Home - C - Candiria lyrics. While They Were Sleeping. The C. The Coma Imprint. The Process Of Self-Development. Process of Self.
