Like bands the world over that have released albums during the pandemic and lockdowns, Impavid Colossus haven’t managed to play the tracks in front of a live audience yet.
Impavid Colossus guitarist Marcelo explains
“Unfortunately like the rest of the world [in Brazil], we don’t have the opportunity share our sound live, but we have an awesome plan to promote it on social networks and music platforms with cool people who know what they are doing. The expectations are the best possible. We can’t wait to release the album that comes with a nice balance between the songs and deep lyrics on issues of all human existence”.
Breaking the barriers of genres by mixing punk rock with grunge, hard rock, and metal, whilst always emphasizing harmony. The music is fast, strong, aggressive, brutal and at the same time captivating, tailored to strike a unique balance.
The band members are experienced musicians who have been featured on television (MTV), in magazines, radio stations and specialist sites (Billboard American and Brazilian). In the middle of 2020, the band’s debut double-single series was released which has since attracted 200,000 streams across digital platforms. The release of their first album ‘Prologue’ marks the continuation of this journey, one which will launch Impavid Colossus to festivals and stages around the world.
