Svetlana


There are at least two bands with this name: A Swedish drone rock band and a shoegaze band from Indianapolis, Indiana. 1. US band: Svetlana is a shoegaze band from Indianapolis, IN that writes music under the influence of such groups as My Bloody Valentine, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Ride, Swervedriver, and Pacific U.V. 2. Swedish band: The name of the band would suggest that we're dealing with a Russian gothic metal/rock outfit, but that's hardly the case. In reality the band is from Sweden and plays low, rumbling drone. As for the music, Svetlana is clearly Sunn O))) influenced. On the other hand there are also plenty of things in the music that would suggest links to more sick and extreme music. Where Sunn O))) focuses on the loud and heavy, Svetlana goes for a much darker and obscure sound. In fact, volume is probably the least you should expect with this band. In any case, this would appeal predominantly to fans of darker drone or bleak ambient funeral doom bands. So even though the music might lie closest to Sunn O))), the hopeless feeling in the music makes it just a suitable for fans of those other genres. /Arnstein H. Pettersen 3.
