Some bands play it safe. MikhMakh? Not a chance. These guys are here to rattle your speakers and shake up the rock scene. Their latest album, “Flash Sale,” isn’t just a collection of songs—it’s a statement. A wild, riff-heavy, no-holds-barred experience that cements MikhMakh as one of the most exciting independent rock bands today.
“Flash Sale” doesn’t waste time easing you in. From the first track, you know you’re in for a full-throttle ride. The band takes the best of rock blending them into a sound that’s all their own. It’s heavy. It’s groovy. It demands your attention. At the core of MikhMakh’s sound is Antoine Mikhtarian, the band’s charismatic frontman, whose talent in bold storytelling and guitar riff sets him apart in the industry. We then have Olle Sohlberg, the band’s powerhouse drummer who joined in 2023.
At the heart of the album is “Vacuna Matata” a high-energy, rebellious anthem that takes aim at a major entertainment company’s rather, let’s say, questionable dealings. It kicks off straight into the chorus—no buildup, no warning, just boom, you’re in it. And once it starts, it doesn’t let up. Mixing metal power with a Latin flair, this track is not only a headbanger but also a wake-up call. It’s MikhMakh at their best: loud, unapologetic, and thrilling.
If “Vacuna Matata” is the firestarter, then “Do It Now” is the rallying cry, this song is pure energy—a call to action for anyone stuck in their own head, waiting for the perfect moment to act (spoiler: there isn’t one).
What makes MikhMakh special isn’t just their sound—it’s their purpose. They aren’t here to stir out generic rock anthems. They use their platform to challenge the status quo, push back against corporate nonsense, and encourage people to think for themselves.
And let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a band that knows how to have fun while flipping the bird to the system? If you’re looking for passion, grit, and a reason to fall in love with rock all over again, “Flash Sale” is your album. It’s raw, it’s real, and it hits hard. So do yourself a favour—turn it up LOUD and let MikhMakh take you for a ride.
