Biography
There are multiple artists called Stroszek.
1) Stroszek is the acoustic project of Claudio Alcara, playing music in an acoustic/rock vein. Claudio Alcara, guitarist and founder of Frostmoon Eclipse, one of Italy’s original and longest serving Black Metal bands, has, with Stroszek, been able to successfully distance himself from the old-school black metal for which he is better known, and use his considerable skills as a guitarist and song writer to produce music that is richly melodic, hauntingly melancholic, and at times, a crushingly sad commentary on his innermost thoughts and life experiences.
Stroszek’s line up comprises Alcara on vocals and guitars, Richard on drums and Frostmoon Eclipse’s Davide on bass - a trio of musicians with a formidable amount of musical experience between them.
2) Stroszek are a band from Glasgow, Scotland. They have often been likened to bands such as Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Cure, Cocteau Twins and Depeche Mode. They place as much emphasis on the lyrics as the music, with many favourable comparisons to Manic Street Preachers, The Clash and Billy Bragg.
