Metal, Hardcore, Indie, Rock
Vianova, an experimental melodic metalcore band, was forced to perform live with drum background recordings on June 9th in Hamburg, Germany, due to a string of failures, as per theprp. Paul Vogelgesang, their drummer, was initially sidelined due to hernia surgery. Additionally, Nick Ober Göuser (Masuria, Illfunction), his live fill-in, became ill and needed to be admitted to the hospital. The band sent the following statement on social media today detailing the circumstances:
Hey Hamburg,
we had some real bad luck yesterday. Unfortunately Paul could not make the show, because he is getting surgery for his hernia. A fill in drummer was supposed to help out, however he also got hospitalized yesterday because he got really ill.
We will still play the show tonight with the support of our good buddy DrumGPT aka our laptop. Hope you guys understand and still give us the same energy as a 3-piece
Upcoming show:
Following the viral momentum of their recent singles ‘Más Rápido’, ‘Melanchronic’ ‘Whatever, Alright ’, and ‘Uh, Yaya’, which were praised by top-tier influencers/reactors like Nik Nocturnal, METALBIRB, bogdanhxc, and several prominent YouTube channels, Berlin’s Vianova have quickly emerged as one of most exciting new heavy acts on the scene.
Blending the bounce of nu-metal, the snarling punch of metalcore, and the melodic dramatics of post-hardcore with a no-f***s-given crossover energy, Vianova aren’t just knocking on the door – they’re kicking it down. Armed with razor-sharp riffs, pounding grooves, jazz shifts, funk breaks, and a visual aesthetic that’s as unhinged as it is unforgettable, Vianov embrace the absurd and the aggressive in equal measure. They are chaotic, catchy, and grab attention like a steel chair to the face.
Armed with their debut album “HIT IT!”, Vianova push their sound even further. This new chapter aims for a raw, fierce, and dynamic approach in both mixing and songwriting. Enigmatically embracing influence from soul, jazz, R&B, and 80s synths, Vianova are unapologetically themselves, the album a reflection of the quartet’s commitment to not just breaking but entirely ignoring genre boundaries. Accompanying this sonic evolution is a vibrant visual transformation and some ever-evolving lore, told through an ongoing series of energetic and charismatic music videos.
Vianova are:
Alexander Kerski | Vocals
Felix Vogelsang | Guitar
