Vajra
Artist Details
“Ritualistic sounding drumbeats and washes of big emo guitar accompanied by some sexy slinky eastern sounds to boot, bringing about moments of closed eyed transportation to other places…” “…These darkened lullabies, strained fairy tales and beautiful gloomy love songs that may sometimes remind one of TOOL’s more “tender” moments have a distinct way of creeping under the skin and sticking in the memory banks.” -Nathan Pike, All Whats Rock
“…progressive rock has rarely sounded so mesmerizing…the divine and the spiritual ‘Pleroma’ is defined as a ‘spiritual dwelling’ and fittingly. Vajra’s record transports you there and makes you feel as if you never are to return.”
-Daniel Davidson-Amadi, Music-News
“Vajra’s brand of progressive rock is unique and powerful….the space rock atmospheres are awesome. This is more or less a combination of Tool, space rock, modern progressive rock and bits of world and tribal sounds…It’s a powerful disc that entertains…” “‘Inside the Flame’…is a cool ride.” “’Blind’…With a rubbery rhythm section, this is a killer tune…a really awesome piece of music….”
-G.W. Hill, Music Street Journal
“…’Pleroma is quite glorious. Its soundscape is a perpetual emotion generating journey of expression, reflection, and investigation. At times it is a shadowed meditation and in others a towering fire of spiritual might which flames with burning passion. It is extraordinary and wholly delicious. The last line of their bio states ‘Vajra’s music will leave you spellbound.’ Hell, Yeah!”
“The album simply blew everything imagined away. It is aural majesty, a beautifully crafted and emotively driven piece of wonder…It is aural majesty…” “…Vajra [is] there at the fore with their stunning introduction to the world.”
-RingMaster
“Vajra’s instrumentals do an incredible job of delivering a soundscape that projects Pinna’s fascination with eastern music…Essentially, the band’s instruments paint the picture as Pinna tells the story.” “Everything about this album is fresh and exciting. I live to experience music of this caliber. “
