Like Nine Inch Nails meets Depeche Mode - moody vocal eletronica with a modernized 80's vibe.
Bio / Background
In a secret government experiment gone horribly awry, a boy raised by machines to be the ultimate in scientific accomplishment was released into the wild years early due to a lack of funding and general loss of interest. Blinking in the harsh light, alone, isolated and disoriented he wanders the landscape in search of a home - machines his only trusted friends and confidants.
"Vicious Cycles", Son of Rust's sophomore effort, explores the idea of freedom. Is it surrendering to ones id or baser desires? Is it achievable by sheer will or faith? Can you give yourself to another and find yourself complete? Are you ever truly free if your life is defined by repetition?
"Vicious Cycles" Includes the up-tempo, hard hitting EBM dance floor thumpers "The World You Live In" and "Falling Down", as well as old school synth-pop stylings in "Violator", "Discordia" and "Alien Taste".
↓ more ↓Rounding out the mix are 80's industrial throw-back "Welcome to Chaos" and modern-era new wave revival "The Highest Cost".
Unlike many modern electronic albums, the 12-track "Vicious Cycles" contains very little filler. Work on this album began shortly after "Six Years" left off, so each track has had a chance to benefit from ample love and meticulous attention to detail. Add to that mastering by one of the industries most well known engineers, Mike Marsh of The Exchange UK (Depeche Mode, Mesh, Pet Shop Boys, etc), and you've got a sonic experience you can really sink your teeth into.
