elcome to the Contrarian™ Website. If you like high-energy, progressive rock music, you're in the right place. Our new 12-song CD "Minor Complexities" encompasses many influences including, Dream Theater, Rush, Kansas, Queensryche, Spock's Beard, and Deep Purple.
Contrarian’s songs are wide-ranging,
including lyrics inspired by the philosophical writings of
Søren Kierkegaard (Fear and Trembling), Frederick Nietzsche
(Twilight of the Idols), and Plato (Plato’s Cave). Other songs
cover history, religion and the broader
concept of the “hierarchy of needs” as described by Abraham
Maslow.
We invite you
to listen to our song samples and to check out the lyrics.
Also, you can download a free copy of our song “Barricades.”
If you're in the New Jersey tri-state area, check out our EVENTS schedule and come to one of our gigs. You'll hear a combination of our original music
and cover songs from a variety of progressive and classic rock bands.
