APOA is a german band that is creating a very powerful and spherical instrumental post rock / post metal mélange. Since 2009 the Dresden-based trio already did tons of
gigs in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands i.e. as support for EF, Callisto and Kokomo.
Marcus, Christoph and Silvio recently released their 2nd record named “Enūma Eliš” with songs that are shifting the borders of the post rock genre.
Press
“[...] die Soundlandschaften, die sich in jedem ihrer sieben Songs erschaffen haben, versetzen einen aufgrund ihres hypnotischen und sphärischen Charakters nahezu in den Zustand der Schwerelosigkeit, die einen die Widrigkeiten des Lebens für einen Moment vergessen lassen.”
“Hier sind wirklich gute Musiker am Werk, die es nicht unbedingt notwendig haben, groß auf "progressiv" zu machen, sondern viel lieber starke, instrumentale Songs zu schreiben, die nie eine knackige Grundhärte verlieren und vielleicht gerade dadurch so etwas wie ein Alleinstellungsmerkmal in dieser recht engen Szene evozieren.”
“This band obviously deserves bigger stages. I really hope Enuma Eliš has the power to extend Apoa's exposure and send them on a tour. I have a feeling that this Dresden-based trio will be playing in front of a frenzied crowd almost everywhere they perform. But beware, the headliners on those evenings will probably be pissed off because they'll have to play in front of an exhausted crowd...”
