"You are about to hear the story of Ike.
Ike is a lost soul, a ghost flitting through life, 
Always waiting for something to come up.
He drifts between Dope & Juice, between Pride & Fear, 
Between Love & Anger.

There are few people in his world :
The Other one, who left and will remain nameless here.
Stella, his dearest lover, and Charlie, his best friend.
Ike will make it someday, one way or another. 
Soon, you'll know what happened to him."

Love Is Leaving

Can You Tell Me ?

Intro

Blind Singers are always looking for an idea of love till they forget about themselves and others, build invisible walls and stay stuck in thoses imaginary limits

All that you go through fades through your eyes till you're blind and embrace the wights

The Barking Spiders latest EP "Songs (You Give on a Whim)" does not tell a story. It is more of an abstract telling of emotions, removed from any sense of time or space.
The song Wasted Words is the epitome of the ideas expressed in this EP - a frenzied race with no finish line, an unending quest to feel anything at all.

Through solar chord progressions and happy-go-lucky riffs, The Barking Spiders aim to breach the gap between upbeat power-pop and dark lyrics in order to make sense of the world around them.

Songs (You Give On A Whim)

In Bordeaux, during the crazy year of 2020, Quentin, Elliott, Rodolphe, Julien and Nils got together and founded "The Barking Spiders". 

The idea was to create a familiar yet unpredictable musical universe. Both frantic & bewitching, solar & melancholy, the Spiders' sound is mainly influenced by the 2010s' new wave of psychedelic rock, but also by progressive rock from the 1970s. 

In 2021, the 5 friends released a concept-EP, called "¿Ike!", a 4-track epic relating the spiraling life of a lost being. 

After many concerts in France, the Barking Spiders are on their way in 2023 to share their energy. One gets captivated with much enjoyment and serenity into their unhinged universe. 

So stay tuned, turn up the volume and .... do not fear the Spiders!
