Kolar Blight is an Orion post-modern acid punk rock band founded in 2371. The band is a supergroup of musicians, coming and going, or forming subgroups occasionally as time goes on. The band is constantly evolving, with members joining and leaving all the time.
The band is heavily involved in political activism across the Federation, particularly in calling out overreach and demagoguery.
Notable songs
- Agency Crisis
- Fight for Paradise/Kick ‘em before they Stand
- A foul-mouthed anti-fascist rant directed at one Admiral Layton and his attempted coup during the Dominion Cold War. The chorus is notable for rhyming Layton with as many expletives across as many Federation languages as is reasonable.
- Pah-Wraith Disco
- Did poorly on the Bajoran Top 100. But made the Top 100. What does that say?
- Martian Rhapsody
- You wouldn't think a punk band to do a dirge, but somehow they pulled it off. Noted for beating the Bajoran and Klingon entries in the 2386 Bajoran Dirge Competition.
- Flaming Nacelle
- Apparently the only people who can understand what is being screamed in this song are all seasoned engineers from across numerous services in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. And none of them are happy. At least one had to be institutionalised upon hearing the song for the first time. Rumour persists he is still there to this day.
- Goth Lord Punk
- No one understands this one bit, but the melody is AWESOME!
Discography
- Cayuga Suckerpunch
- The band's third ever album, now considered a classic of the genre. Primary themes include defiance in the face of overwhelming odds, some rather out-dated opinions on the Gorn and that sometimes to solve a problem, you just need to throw a starship at it.
