 Topic: El Caco - stoner/doom to metalcore, hard rock,Posted: 25 Nov 2011 at 2:00pm |

El Caco is a Norwegain gritty heavy metal bands from 2000 and outwards, very heavy slow, crushing riffs, with slow sabbathy riffs which is typical for the sludge metal scene, so they probably fit sludge more then doom metal but they have a Kyuss like sound to them but they are stoner/doom borderline sludge.

Since you are a collaborator, you don't have to start a thread in this section when requesting a band. You can just post in the relevant sub-genre section in the collab forums. Nonetheless, I'll listen.

Based on the 4 tracks up on Myspace, I think their sound is closer to hard rock than it is metal. Maybe the HR guys should give them a listen.

okey
 im listening to albums on Spotify now, and they are really good and quite all over the place, some hard rock, some stoner rock, some riffs are heavy as hell, and some aucustic parts, and from the Blabbermouth article it is said the muscians have quite varied types of influence, and it is also a power trio so they are very energic and more open, more like a more heavy King's-X to them |

the last paragraph from this review describes the band very well
http://www.rockfreaks.net/albums/669 The choruses are catchy and some might even deserve some radio airplay, but they never will because in the end, these are still metal songs no matter how alternative and different they may be from that scene. Think Stone Sour gone more stoner rock, and you're close. |

okay after now listening to 3 albums i can fullhearthy say they are not sludge metal, they started of as stoner metal, but evolved more and more into metalcore or more melodic and fast paced metal then slow sludgy metal, but the first album is in stoner rock/metal landscape the music evolvs from each album the second was a mix of stoner, metalcore and groovy rock/metal 3rd album the search are more in metalcore, but stil they manage to bring in their own twist to it, that is almost atmopheric post metal, and the vocals switch between clean singing and harsher screems but it is focused on clean singing,

HR will take them.
You want to do the Bio first Chris and then I'll add them? If you think a particular album should be labelled differently go ahead and change any relevant release. I see their new album due in January is said to go in yet another direction. Interesting band, I enjoyed listening to them. |

I have a bio made in the hard rock collab section
and yes the first album is cross between hard rock and stoner/doom in my opinion, the rest is between hard rock and metalcore |
