NEWS: Jaodae share Spanish folk song “Cantiga 166”?

Pulling from countless influences, Jaodae took the sound of their diverse debut “Cast in Ash” and disassembled, sorted and reforged it into a cohesive freight train of polyrhythms, melodies and most importantly, riffs. That process has ensured that their Progressive, Heavy and  Instrumental style has remained at the heart of their expansive new magnum opus “Nest of Veins“, due out 7th July via Black Throne Productions. Another single from that in “Cantiga 166” has surfaced from the black depths, one of nine to make the grade… But without lyrics how can it be “a Spanish folk song usually having love or religion“?

“It’s more about feel or flow than it is about a sub-genre,” says drummer Spencer Robson. “It’s something that only comes from a killer creative partnership. We don’t share a lot of musical tastes, but we deeply respect each other, so we’re challenging ourselves in an open, creative environment. It’s kind of the best case scenario for writing music, because when we’re locked in, we’re not emulating other bands. What comes out, comes out.”

“As an instrumental band, our main goal is to make music that is exciting to play and listen back to,” says Roberto Ercoli, guitarist and producer for the band, “and I believe this LP ticks all the boxes. Without a vocalist, the big challenge is to write melody and structure that engages the listener as much as a vocalist does. We’ve been meticulous about crafting a soundscape that hooks you immediately and makes you want to keep coming back for more.”
