News : The Berzerker, The Amenta – Industrial Corruption Tour '09
THE BEZERKER: Created in 1995 with the desired need to create obscenely brutal music, “Australian Industrial Death Metalists” The Bezerker, have constantly pushed the limits of extreme music & have reached levels that very few have com even close to matching. In 2008 and with a brand new (5th) studio album under the belt, The Berzerker are back! The Re-Awakening contains 10 new spinegrinding tracks & 6 bonus remixes. After 10 years of being signed to a “record label” the band has decided to go out on their own and create “BERZERKER INDUSTRIES” It was created to take back control of the bands future and finances. Think of it. “Bands selling their direct to the fans.” The Bezerker believe this is the future for all music and just to prove it they are getting in early. This is a direct mail order release only! (and yes you get a physical cd this is NOT an mp3 release) It is only available from www.myspace.com/theberzerker and www.berzerkerindustries.com
THE AMENTA: “n0n”, the long awaited follow up to the debut “Occasus”, sees The Amenta redefining extreme music. Rather than relying on the clichéd shit in which other bands are content wallow, The Amenta have constructed an album built on new ideas, new concepts, new sounds and new techniques. “n0n” is the fusion of whitenoise, shards of dissonant guitars and dense layers of radio chatter. Lyrically, “n0n: is a newscast, showing you the shit around you. Suicide bombers and evangelists, freeways and dead ends. ‘n0n’ stands as an indictment on todays media and technology addicted society. With each song featuring over 100 actual recorded tracks, The Amenta’s new album pushes technology to its absolute limits. Fusing the ugliest parts of Extreme Metal, Electronic Noise and Dub with a ferocious and scathing world view, “n0n” is the future of extreme music.
