In fact we all know the feeling, getting a kick in the gut, a slap on the side of your head, being knocked out of your everyday-doze by total surprise. Its a weird and nauseating experience, and only afterwards you realize how important it is.
Lack is that kind of experience. Whether its on record or in a frantic live setting, they suck the air out of the listener. Its sincere, its earnest and its fun but never funny.
Honing their harsh and complex hardcore approach thru the years, finding the real challenge in expressing more with less,
Lack has turned into a fascinatingly rocking outfit fixed on details and the tightness of simplicity. The hardcore scene, and the environment surrounding it, has taught us a lot as a band but also as individuals, drummer Jacob explains. The hardcore/punk network helped spread our music to many parts of the world and gave us the chance to see and experience more than we could have asked for on tour. All that is not something we just put behind us because our musical focus is a little different. We dont want to limit ourselves to one particular genre of music. We want to reach people, not just one type of people. These guys know how to walk the line and serve music with a message, not a message with music. Singer/guitarist Thomas is quick to admit that our lyrics are political, but thats not to say that
Lack is a political band. We are not interested in using political awareness to promote ourselves but if on the other hand we can promote political awareness thru our activities, then fine!
