East Timor - Galaxy - Rai Timor Lorosae

from Global_Domination​.​Vol2 (C​-​F) by Global Metal Apocalypse

about

From their original headquarters in a bombed out house in their hometown of Los Palos, Galaxy has risen from the trauma and chaos of the independence struggle to become one of the most well-respected bands in the world’s newest nation.

Adored by the masses of youth, these tattooed, deadlocked young men are often feared and misunderstood by the church leaders and elites. Galaxy exemplifies rock’n’roll in its essence as the wild energy and raw emotion of youth, all the more powerful and genuine due to the real-life revolutionary context from which they come. With their unique blend of rap, funk, acoustic and hard rock meeting the traditional rhythms of the Fataluku people of the east of Timor and the resistance songs of the independence movement, Galaxy is truly a leader in contemporary Timorese music.

Renowned for tackling tough issues and taking a stand, Galaxy sing candidly about the Timor gap, AIDS, corruption, Timor’s history and the struggle of daily life in a poor and recently independent nation. After playing in every conceivable situation from stadium concerts to lonely mountain towns Galaxy know how to please.
