‘Indica’s sound is choppy, it’s unpredictable, it has melody and crushing heaviness in bucketloads, and most of all it is unique.’
‘This recording is very capable of scratching a nerve as well as drilling a hole right through in its bearing ferocity, Indica have launched an aural attack.’
While many young bands get ahead in the music business by kissing ass and pandering to each others ‘scenes’ and egos, Indica are completely ignorant and passive to the world around them. Instead, Indica like to spend their time creating interesting and unique music, music that most probably will never get heard by the masses. The simple fact is, Indica don’t care where the music business is heading, which is what makes them so compelling.
If the 2003 release ‘Values Of Silence’ was the promise of things to come, ‘Unnatural Conspiracy’ can be seen either as a fulfilment of this promise, or a vicious slap in the face to those expecting 30 minutes of tuneful bliss. Indica have succeeded in creating a truly unclassifiable sound, intentionally awkward and musically miles away from the over sensitive and sickly American sound that seems to have been adopted by many a British band of late.
Recorded at Mighty Atom studios June 2004, produced by Joe Gibb, co produced by Geth Woolcock & Indica
‘Unnatural Conspiracy’ combines the bands love for old school rock with the more progressive sounds of bands such as Pink Floyd, Devin Townsend & Dillinger Escape Plan. Indica have created a concept mini-album full of suggestion and statement. This is unrefined, raw, no-thrills and down right nasty stuff, no time wasters please. This isn’t to say that Indica are without melody, even in the heaviest of moments Indica somehow manage to squeeze out an unbearably addictive mix of melody and precision.
Indica are not for everyone, but if you have a thirst for honest and challenging music then look no further. Everyone else can go listen to Robbie Williams and Dido and stay the hell out of Indica’s way.
