With CYNICAL EXISTENCE, Alfa Matrix proudly presents one of the most promising dark elektro bands of the moment hailing from Sweden. A new harsh EBM project behind which hides none other than Fredrik Croona - founder and lead vocalist of the aggrotech/industrial act PROJECT ROTTEN and former vocalist of dark electro/industrial act MENSCHDEFEKT.
The "Ruined Portrait" digital download EP comes as an appetizer for the much promising full length album "Come Out And Play" which is scheduled for an early 2013 release. CYNICAL EXISTENCE offers a mixture of old school EBM with a harsher industrial tone while infusing more personal emotions into the compositions and stripping away the heavily processed vocals. A powerful EBM sound where melodic synth lines collide with "less is more" music arrangements and haunted by stand-out vocal angst.
The EP features some exclusive collaborations with IMPLANT, REACTOR7, MIND:STATE and FREAKY MIND. CYNICAL EXISTENCE shows here to be a new hard elektro entity we will now have to count with!
