Hello Blax! Tell us your story…

Our adventure started in March 2020 during the covid-19 shutdown when our singer and songwriter (Blax), started to collaborate with our guitarist (Hektor) for the recording of the first demotape which later became the music you can listen through our first album “Meravilia” recorded during the 2021. The BLAX project became a family in 2022 when the drummer (Argex), the bass player (Katla), and the guitarist (Hexen) joined the band.

In the 2023 and 2024 we played live in several shows throughout Europe promoting our first album “meravilia” and we had the chance to play in some very nice festivals in Czech Republic, Greece and London u.k. During the summer of 2024 ARGEX left the band for personal reasons and a new drummer (ANON) joined the blax family. Anon played on the last two shows of the “meravilia” tour in Czech Republic. the band is now focused on finishing the new album that is going to be released in the beginning of 2025.

Which bands influenced your music and what is the music genre of the band?

BLAX music falls into the Hard goth metal genre and its sound is principally influenced by artists such as Alice Cooper and ghost also, echoes of glorious Italian bands of the past such as death ss and goblins can also be found among our influences.

Which is your discographic debut and how do you feel about this one?

Our debut album was published in October 2022 with the name “meravilia”.

the album sound was crafted after hard rock guitar sound, 80’s theatrical synthesizers with mid-low-pitched voices. The album sound and the atmosphere that came out has horror and gothic references and reflects the initial idea of blax and hexen that started it all back in the spring of 2020.

If you have a time machine, would you change anything about your debut album?

Honestly no. the album that came out totally fulfilled our expectations and musical desires. also, the feedbacks we have had from the people who listen to our music and have seen our shows are pretty good.

Suggest us one song that describe your character as a band.

we would like to mention two in particular: “rules of meravilia” and “shady life”. they represent the idea and the characters behind the blax house project. blax is the owner of the house, Hector is the butler. Hexen is the watchman, Katla is the governess and anon is the gardener. And these songs describe the lifestyle of the people that inhabit this house which revolves around free spirits, excesses and sex.

We saw that you play a lot of concerts this year. Tell us about this experience.

Yes, we did! We had a great time playing live. We have experienced awesome feelings performing in front of these audiences. more than anything We enjoyed connecting with people that saw us live and we even made some new friends along the way.

Which live stays on your mind and why?

All of the 2024’ Czech Republic festivals for sure! We played live at masters of rock 2024’s main stage in front of hundreds of people. we shared this stage with incredible artists such as judas priest, bruce Dickinson and avantasia. we also absolutely enjoyed playing at “ostrava v plamenech” and Rock castle. Everywhere the people were fantastic with us and the atmosphere was unique and captivating.

Do you love to play live or to write music?

Writing music and performing it live are different sides of the same coin and the blax family’s musicians make no exception. Naturally, playing your music live is an emotion mostly unrivalled in the life of any musician and we were so lucky to have experienced this in the last couple of years. Performing in front of people that never saw you live and getting back positive feedback from them is something that make you proud and happy. Not to mention playing on the same stage with such unbelievable artists. this is something that make you take a giant leap forward as a professional musician.

Any band that you want to play with?

Most of all ghost and alice cooper, that would be our daydream!

Also, we would love to play with beast in black, awesome band! And why not play with death ss, an Italian band that we admire very much.

Thank you! Any last words?

Thanks to you for the opportunity of making us known to your audience. As mentioned, we are currently finishing our next album and we are scheduling new live events for the 2025 season. See you on the road!
