El Caco, a Norwegian band that blends metal with rock, heads to London for a gig at The Fly on 11 November.
Formed in Lillestrøm on the outskirts of Oslo, Norway, the three band members of El Caco have been working together since 1998. They now hit the road again touring their 4th full length release ‘From Dirt’.
These Norwegian road bandits have the ability to grasp the finer elements of their influences and mix them into their own diverse sound. The band’s music is a culmination of three very talented individuals, each with a very eclectic taste in music. Inspired by the best, but never stripping themselves of their own unique identity.
The band has just finished recording their fifth album (produced by Daniel Bergstrand - Meshuggah, In Flames etc), and the result will be out in January 2009. With four European tours and numerous Norwegian gigs and festivals under their belt, El Caco live is a force to be reckoned with. Metal Hammer UK puts it well: ‘A fresh perspective and bottomless bag off killer riffs’.
