Copia - Dong Open Air 2017
Copia finishes our bucket list! All five continents! After welcoming the spear heads of the underground of all other (inhabited) continents, we finally found four nice gentlemen from Melbourne to welcome on the Dong stage. Their expertise is metalcore and their interpretation of the style have thoroughly impressed the Dong team! Rhythms somewhere between Meshuggah and Evergreen Terrace, catchy choruses, and singer Bishop’s rasping vocals in particular are what makes Copia’s sound so recognizable and neck breaking.
They did a few DIY visits to Europe, and anyone who wouldn’t let them perform and didn’t run of quick enough, they bugged with audio samples. Back at home, they even tried this with kangaroos, emus, and koalas. Even though this proved to be only somewhat successful, their second record, especially the previously released single “Disconnected,” makes us quite confident they’ll turn the Dong hill upside down (under)!
