It’s a cycle that consumes struggling bands wanting to make it big. But how does music get major success? From being played on the radio. Most radio stations will only play music that has already seen some form of success, therefore guaranteeing that their listeners will not switch to another station. So what’s the problem? Well, it’s like this. There is no screaming, no cursing and no lyrics telling you to burn down your school. It is heavy but it’s not offensively heavy. Upon listening to Themata there really is nothing on this album that wouldn’t fit on a radio stations playlist. So why wont radio or television stations play Karnivool? That’s a tough question to answer. Therefore even most Australians will look at you like you just cursed at them if you even mention the word Themata. But as for media attention….as always it’s very minimal. In fact they do have a huge loyal following of fans. That’s not to say they don’t have a large fan base. Granted, they are from Australia which probably doesn’t help much, but even in their home country they are relatively unknown. This album proves exactly why the music industry sucks! What we have here is possibly one of the most enjoyable listens you will ever experience…and yet, most of you have probably never even heard of Karnivool.
