The melting pot that is London brought the members Frisco (drums), Matt Ress (guitar), Kam Ikaze (bass), Cole Sław (keys), and Frhetoric (vocals) together from Poland, Czech Republic, Denmark and Iran.
Rosen is a band fusing rock, nu metal, hip-hop, electronic and classical music to create the perfect storm.
The name Rosen is taken from Philip K. Dick’s novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”, which is set in a dystopian world where manufactured androids have become virtually indistinguiable from humans.
This bleak vision is manifested by provocative lyrics peppered with social commentary and served on a platter of genre-bending sounds that reflects the band’s diverse musical backgrounds.
The cyberpunk genre depicts society as “High Tech Low Life”, so naturally that is the title of Rosen’s debut single that touches on social media and narcissism.
Their second single “Riot” addresses the current political climate of censorship, ignorance and a lack of purpose, that sees the Millenial generation turning to pointless riots in a desperate cry for attention.
