ROCK: Progressive Rock, ROCK: Modern Rock
Details:
Brimming with darkly sweet pop hooks, Cafebar 401''s music blends Bowie-esque vocal presence with danceable grooves firmly rooted in Euro-rock. Their relentlessly contemporary sound calls to mind Coldplay, Masters of Reality, Muse, Beck, Soulwax, Radiohead, and Queens of the Stone Age, but Cafebar 401 brings something else entirely of their own to the party. Don''t miss it.
Cafebar 401 leader Tije Oortwijn grew up listening to the Black Crowes, the Rolling Stones, and Masters of Reality. He first piloted grunge-driven bands during the mid-''90s. Gradually he absorbed his influences and concocted the shadowy pop confections of Cafebar 401. Combining the roar of alternative rock with the drum-and-bass of N.E.R.D., Timbaland, Daft Punk, Cassius, and Outkast, Cafebar 401 evokes a hipper Foo Fighters, a fun and funkier Bush.
Oortwijn is a songwriter first, a craftsman of guitar and studio.
He infuses his songs with a mix of celebration and sadness. "If the song isn''t powerful," he says, "we throw it away."
