Karen Foster was a rock trio from Canada. From the beginning, Karen
Foster played music with a spirit so wild it left critics and fans
feeling somewhat naked. Loud, fast, tight punk rock without quoting the
Ramones, NoFX or Nirvana, Karen Foster attempted a pro-active rock
experience on a stunted modern musical scape dominated by the pre-fab
retroactive.
Just as nostalgia is a sign of
a dying culture, Karen Foster was transfixed on communicating the
prognosis of what Oliver Stone in his film Natural Born Killers called
"the sad sickness". As western society has become more and more rotted
by the power elite, social consciousness in North America has largley
become faithless and self-loathing and/or blind and nullified. Karen
Foster relfected the blinding rift between our ideals and the
realities, the gloating political and technological contradicitions of
our space and time in 1999. A polite external pretense of caring and
fostering, while within beats a maniac volatile heart ready to burst
from skin and bone. Karen Foster was that dionysian Shiva trapped in
the bowels of Apollo.
