Polyphia: BE NOT AFRAID World Tour

The American band Polyphia and the French project Perturbator share the stage at La Riviera as part of the BE NOT AFRAID tour.

Polyphia is an American progressive metal and rock group formed in Dallas in 2010. The band released its first album, Muse, in 2014, and its sound stands out for blending complex instrumental technique with structures close to pop and art rock, without relying on lead vocals for most of its repertoire. Perturbator, meanwhile, is the synthwave project led by the French musician, active since 2012, the year he released his first record, TERROR 404, on the Blood Music label. His approach explores dark-toned electronica and dense synthesisers.

In concert, Polyphia brings its instrumental precision to the stage, with multi-string guitars and rhythm sections played with technical rigour, while Perturbator offers a staging centred on the power of electronic frequencies and a nocturnal atmosphere. The night brings together two projects with distinct sonic worlds but a marked instrumental focus.

This date at La Riviera is aimed at fans of contemporary instrumental music and avant-garde sounds. The Madrid venue offers a spacious room with good visibility from the floor and the raised side areas, suited to acts that combine the power of guitars and electronics.
