Linkin Park On 'From Zero' & Their Return To Australia: 'We're More Assured That This Is What We Want To Be Doing'

Have You Heard: Sikander

"Desire was driven by what felt like a demonic possession..."

When did you start making music and why? Journey began some time ago. Desire was driven by what felt like a demonic possession...

Sum up your musical sound in four words? Global bass balearic grooves. 

If you could support any band in the world — past or present — who would it be? Thievery Corporation. 

If you could only listen to one album forevermore, what would it be and why? Oh, that's a hard one, but People's Colony No 1 by Temple Of Sound & Rizwan-Muazzam Qawwali could be a winner. Why? Mesmerising Sufi vocals, hypnotic grooves, lush arrangements, dubby basslines (a la Jah Wobble)...

Greatest rock'n'roll moment of your career to date? Being mistaken for the main act (and the mayhem that followed)...

Why should people come and see your band? Globally-flavoured club music, concocted LIVE, with elements of cinematic atmospherics, sitar-fuzz, and bass culture into a groove-laden sonic spread.

When and where for your next gig? Thursday 15 Oct at Belleville, as part of Global Safari Thursdays. 9pm set.
