In-Ear Trip

“In-Ear Trip” is a blend of industrial, electro, hard rock music that will take you on a mind trip through the dark alleys and buildings of the town that inspired Andreas Kouretas to produce this album in 2013. The streets, buildings and people that live in the urban area of Athens and Exarhia have shaped the album’s aesthetic atmosphere, whereas the vibes from the music atmosphere of the 80’s have shaped many tracks. The album received outstanding reviews not only in Greece but abroad as well.

The figure on the album’s cover envisions a trip through the deepest recesses of the mind by listening to music, hence the title “In-Ear Trip”. On the inside of the album you can see an everyday environment that reminds you of the historical center of Athens which also inspired the album. Changes, tension and balanced chaos, from a dark style into electro and a little bit of punk, gives this unique album its identity. You could even say that listening to it you might “see” these images.
