Biografia:
Who exactly is egomunk? That remains one of the best-kept secrets in the music industry. Rumours abound about his or her identity, as well as that of the VIP contributors and guests. But remarkably, in the three years since the group released its debut album, “Footsteps to Mars” – which notched up a remarkable 300,000 free downloads – the musicians have managed not to let their mask slip. The mystery remains as impenetrable as ever.
“I wanted to release an album completely anonymously to let the music be heard for what it is, not for who is behind it.”
While journalists may puzzle over the musicians’ real identity, the band’s modus operandi allow it to address its intensely loyal public without having to cede control to the marketing and publicity machines. The music, in the end, is all that matters.
Fusing ethereal soundscapes with allusive, poetic lyrics, the band is intent no crating its own language beyond the conventional genres.
“We don’t care about genres or trends. They are nice to play with but ultimately the should never be used to restrict your creativity.”
