Syndrome X/209 - Gemini

2014-09-26 / Jenna_Malique / Reads: 2458

Yes, yes, yes, yes!!! I have not heard for a long time such a well thought out, constructed and recorded album. Everything has its time, place, and not so often encountered ENERGY, which bursts the walls. Side-project from mister Kettil Sundberg known from Project Rotten defends itself probably in...

Synaptic Defect - Lost

2025-03-31 / khocico / Reads: 640

The new EP by Synaptic Defect, titled Lost, is a raw, dark electro mini-odyssey — where distorted vocals meet noise-infused, metallic textures that pierce like sharpened steel.
