Voltera

Voltera are a multi-faceted four piece currently residing in Melbourne Australia. Deep from the underground, their sound is a sophisticated, emotive and distinct manipulation of the darker genres. Voltera draw on their collective musical tastes to create an eclectic twist on metal and industrial sounds with a predominant female vocal ranging from dark and melodic, to a guttural bawl, thus delivering a powerful and intense live performance. All this, coupled with their unusual stage antics, gives them a dynamic approach to live music. This you have to see.
