Biography

For some, music is an escape from the outside world. For others, music is a response to the world around them. For Tribes of Revolt, music lies somewhere in the balance.  

Unique, passionate, brooding, aggressive - this is how fans have described the music of Tribes of Revolt. The band's uncompromising sound is achieved almost exclusively with acoustic guitars, providing a distinctive approach in a rock-driven setting that is relatively aggressive.

The earthy melodies and foreboding overtones resonate and form a natural bridge between the eclectic range of styles, which combine elements of hard rock with shades of Eastern and American roots music. The band has been compared to artists such as Brendan Perry of Dead Can Dance, the Doors, Pink Floyd, and Tool. This haunting and soulful soundscape is lyrically anchored by a powerful message of universal trials and personal redemption. This message is influenced by a Christian perspective that recurs directly and indirectly throughout. Tribes of Revolt is a recording project that swims firmly against the current of mainstream music.
