It's happening! After a six long hiatus, Brooklyn's Candiria have announced a return. For our younger fans, Candiria were incredibly influential in the late 90s, implementing facets of jazz-fusion and rap into their songs. The band members decided to "move on with their lives" a few years ago, with drummer Ken Schalk moving to the other side of the country, but have since started making music again.
They are ready to show off some of that music, as they have announced the impending release of a 7" EP called The Invaders on April 29. The release will be limited to 500 physical copies. While we can certainly expect more new music from the band, I doubt any touring is on the horizon. Members of the band hinted at such as far back as 2009:
