MK give through their songs a strong message of social care and deep introspective search. Through the exploration of pain, mystic stain and through the strongest emotions plunged in the endless of Soul and Heart, they wish to lean people towards the stimulation of an important spiritual evolution. …A free, sincere flight wrapping up the hearts of their listeners, setting free all those emotions and feelings hidden in the mist of daily pains; a chant which raises strongly, ragely and firmly trying to become the voice of thousands of desperate silences sinking in the ocean of indifference, intolerance, hypocrisy and loneliness flooding the age we live in…. …A Key to open the doors of Mind gates and reveal an amazing inner world which frees the real essence of Life…A wild revolution to shake the establishment stalwarts of society and give a new meaning to Freedom…. Pure provocation; instinct and feeling; visions of Light and explorations of darkness; a scream shattering silence and loneliness of life to lead our inspirations towards the eternal Sun reigning along the way of Joy .
