Gire
The band was formed in 1995 in Makó, and they soon becxame one of the influential bands of the Hungarian underground. Their energetic avantgarde metal music is made special by the keyboard play and poetry of Tamás Kátai.
His lyrics in Hungarian are often really poem-like, and are of gloomy, dark sensibility. The band released its first album last year, and has been performing in trio formation lately with the use of a drum-machine, which they don’t intend to change.
Line up
Zolán Kónya: vocals, guitar
Tamás Kátai: keyboards, programming
