◄◊► EUROPEAN METAL CHANNEL ◄◊►: KAIRA

The band was formed in the middle of 2006 in Belarus by Pavel Drozdov and Kaira. From 2006 to 2009 Kaira and Pavel worked only with sessional musicians, both in studio and at concerts, releasing albums only in Russian. By that time three albums were released in Symphonic-Power-Metal style on the Russian leading label Irond Ltd.
A long period of time each of these albums had been taking the first line in charts of Dark City magazine, the first musical Russian magazine of heavy music. With a new line up in 2009 the style of music and its sound radically changed. The following album «Child of Fire» sounded in Industrial – Symphonic – Metal style, it was released by Irond Ltd label and sparked interest of distributors and journalists from Australia, New Zealand, America and England.

After performing several concerts the band started to work hard at their following album «Late Stone Age» and decided to record «Late Stone Age» and the following albums only in English. This decision was taken by the band members to show them outside Russia. Though after numerous requests from Russian fans the group released some singles in Russian. In 2010 «Late Stone Age» was rotated on metal-radios and took positive reviews. After that the album’s popularity dramatically increased among listeners of the West European countries and America. Thanks to that the band took the first line in Myspace charts among metals bands of the Russian Federation.

In 2012 the group’s style started to sound more extreme and enriched the line up with the second vocalist. The group started to work at their next album «Not For Angels». Due to aggressive sound, alternative lyrics and emotional vocal technique, the band began a new stage of their development – Groove/MetalCore style. The album was recorded at Thelema studio, album mixing was made at Frost Records studio and in 2013 the album was released by a German company RecordJet and American label RockAlive Records.
After the album release KAIRA presents 2 video “S.F.T.A” and “You Kill Me Slowly”, one of the videos was shot in a restricted zone that got status of an evacuation zone after the explosion of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
