The Magnificent Melancholic Minds Behind KATATONIA

The Magnificent Melancholic Minds Behind KATATONIA

Sweden's Katatonia are instantly indentifiable thanks wholly to the stunningly superb vocals of Jonas Renske. With over a dozen releases from their thirty (and counting) year career, the band has continually evolved. Maturing without ever losing site of who they are as artists and musicians, purposely they are fully focussed on delving into the darkness of a void we are all trapped within. Katatonia write the soundtrack that beautifully attempts to take their listeners to a place of melancholic wonder as a means to escape the turmoils that confront us but not engulf us.
Renske sat down with Metal V and openly discussed his life and motivations behind what he does as a career of the frontman of Katatonia and also a history of the band.
With a new Katatonia headline tour coming next February 2024, the two talked of Renske's past memories and tours of being here in Australia plus also what we can expect to see and hear from them on their upcoming trip. Not to mention that it wouldn’t be a Metal V / HEAVY Mag hour long special without asking Jonas what he feels are Katatonia’s most favorite and important songs for us to play on this Katatonia podcast spotlight with insight into his reasoning for choosing such tracks!
