Band/artist history
By some, Textures is called the promise of the Dutch metalscene. Internationally renowned Metalmagazine Aardschok called Textures "an extraordinary, talented band which has delivered an album of international potency". OOR magazine talked about "the best Dutch metalalbum ever made".
There's a large scale of words to define the Textures sound: dynamic, progressive, refreshing, aggressive, atmospheric. The use of modern, electronic instruments and uncommon measures isn't avoided in the least. Influences are gained from dozens of musical genres. Still the complex songs remain accessible to any music lover.
Textures wants progress without concession. At the end of 2001 the bandmembers built a studio of their own to record the debutalbum Polars. The production, mastering and artwork were left completely in the hands of the band.
In the summer of 2003 the promotional version of the 55 minute digipak CD appeared. The reactions were overwhelming without exception. Polars reflects every aspect of the band. The songstructures, lyrics, musical styles and the personalities within the collective. Polars contains eight tracks which make clear that Textures is larger than the sum of her parts.
Immediately after Polars was completed, the promotionmachine was launched. Radio- and magazine-interviews followed. By invitation, Textures was asked to appear as the support act for Sepultura in de Effenaar, Eindhoven. Also, they shared the stage with the Swedish Thrashers of the Crown on two occasions. At the end of November 2003, Textures wrote "winning the Metal Bash contest" to her list of achievements. Not only did they obtain the coveted "Igor"-award, they also played together with praised by all Machinehead.
Due to the increasing demand for gigs and media-attention the band decided to join forces with management- and bookingagency LoudNoise (Green Lizard, the Crown). Shortly After, they signed with Listenable Records (Soilwork, Immolation, Aborted).
Polars will be released March 8th 2004 in Europe, 26th of April worldwide.
