Rain Delay

Formed in Belgrade, Serbia, on 5th of January 2003, initially as a three-piece-semi-acoustic-project, Rain Delay with their debut As I Bequeath My Yesterday (2005) (Active Time Records) grew into a promising and daring young band that pushed many musical boundaries. Starting with their original, and in many ways beautiful form of atmospheric doom/black metal/rock they went on much further on their sophomore album We Forget (2008) (Mr. Metal Records). Today they represent a very listenable, nevertheless radio-friendly, sui generis form of fusion metal, enhanced with much melodic death, post-hardcore and even jazzy/funky influences, but keeping in touch with their musical roots. Just imagine Opeth, Saturnus, Burst, Poison The Well, Faith No More and Chris Rea in one band. Well, if you do that you may be one inch closer to their essence... Now cherished by all sorts of music fans, also appreciated by their colleagues as a very professional band, they played numerous great gigs, concerts and festivals, in over 30 towns in their homeland, such as the famous EXIT festival in Novi Sad. Also they were the opening act for bands Katatonia, Klimt 1918 and Charon. In 2008, the band composed the music for a movie by Nebojša Radosavljević called “Who the Fuck is Miloš Branković?” which premiered on 36th Belgrade film festival – FEST 2008. Expansion on a foreign market (that just might be well beyond their current underground popularity) is in progress.
