About:

After a series of false-starts, unceremonious firings and infantile rows, Adolyne officially assembled about a dozen years ago as a means to keep warm through the endless prairie winter that they were either too dumb to abandon or stubborn to admit defeat to. Less a product of their surroundings than a direct reaction to artistic absences in their immediate vicinity, the band spent their initial years harnessing vulgar sonic philosophy and a reactionary base-level onslaught into one of the most incendiary live shows in Western Canada. Noise-rock petulance, post-hardcore abandon, and a spiraling metallic thrust collide violently in to an animal that is as much merciless volume worship as it is nightmarish existential crisis.

Adolyne incites an ugly musical knife fight between 90’s Noise mongers from the heavier end of the Amphetamine Reptile fold and the brooding sonic theorists of the Hydra Head Industries class, while assorted voices from the post-hardcore and math-rock crowds goad them on with unsavory and dangerous advice. For those who haven’t the time or stomach to be entirely educated on the background of this savage rumble though, journalist and filmmaker Craig Silliphant was best able to express what to expect from Adolyne in his review which warned “Adolyne is a cathartic, primal force that will tear down your soul and spit it in your face….. It’s usually a cliché to say something defies categorization, but I’ll take a punch in the face before I’ll offer a definitive description of the music that Adolyne makes. It’s best to just get the hell out of the way.

0 Plugged In Promotions – Sludgehammer – The Fallen Sun

  • June 7, 2016

  • · Sludgehammer

The instrumentals on this album really drew me in, whether it be the hooking guitar riffs, powerful vocals, or the fast and upbeat drumming. The pure aggression in their style is a defining factor of this album.

Montreal Industrial Monsters PROJEKT F Posts New Video ‘Unbegun’
Headlining ‘GothFest’ In Montreal June 19th
New EP ‘The Butterfly Effect’ Out Now!

Upcoming Dates:

June 19 – Katacombes – Montreal, QC (GothFest) – info

Montreal industrial monsters PROJEKT F have posted a new video ‘Unbegun’ in support of their recently released EP ‘The Butterfly Effect’. The EP is their loudest release to date featuring seven pinnacle tracks for your auditory senses discussing the torrid relationship between man and God to continue their thematic discography ‘Skins’ (2013) and ‘Under The Skin’ (2014).

”We consider ‘The Butterfly Effect’ to be an extremely raw and honest EP. Early in the process of making it, we knew that we would not be making a music video for it. However, we thought it was important to give something to our fans. So we decided to make a video that would show a side of Projekt F that hasn’t been seen before. Like the EP, a raw and honest one. Many of you have seen our “on stage persona” before, but with this video that we have made for our single, “Unbegun”, we are sharing a different side of ourselves.” comments vocalist Jonh M. Miller.

About:

Projekt F was founded in 2006 by Jonh M. Miller, lead singer and main composer of the band. Inspired by rock/industrial/metal music of the 90’s, Projekt F quickly made a name for themselves in the underground music scene of Montreal. Miller was joined by William Hicks (bass) in 2010, Simon Sayz (guitar) in 2013, and Fred Linx (drums) in 2014.

Their first EP named “0000” saw the light of day in 2009 with 500 physical copies made by the band being sold out in no time, and more than 1000 digital copies downloaded. Continuing to evolve in the Montreal Industrial scene, the band accumulated a large number of shows across the Province of Quebec and Ontario with their musical originality and their intensity on stage. In 2012, the band was invited to play alongside Combichrist at the biggest industrial music festival in Canada, Kinetik Festival. During the last few years they have shared the stage with international bands such as Motionless In White, Revolting Cocks, Angelspit, Nachtmar, Left Spine Down, Slaves on Dope, New Years Day, For Today and Ice Nine Kills.

Projekt F has also had the opportunity to do a performance of their song “Room 13” in a TV pilot called “Cause and Effect” (produced by Vaas Media). Their song “Oophorectomy” is also featured in a short movie called “Purple Love” (produced by Les films de la meute), featured at the 2013 Cannes Festival.

Taking a darker and more personal musical road, Projekt F launched their album “Skins” in 2013 and 2014’s EP “Under The Skin”, which is now followed by their newest EP, “The Butterfly Effect” released on March 4, 2016. It is said to be a direct sequel to their previous conceptual effort ”Skins”.

MEMBERS:

Jonh M. Miller – Vocals/Piano/Synth

William Hicks – Bass

Simon Sayz – Guitar

Fred Linx– Drums

0 Infrared Magazine – Anion – Fractions of Failure (EP) (No List Records)

  • June 7, 2016
  • by Asher
  • · Anion (No List Records)
“Anion are sludge metal at its most grimy, sadistic and hard hitting. This is clearly a band who is not out to make an impact, they are out to destroy and take over. The riffs and vocals on this EP are just hardcore to the bone and you feel that in moments you are not sure whether to rock out to them or lock the door and hope they are not coming to get to beat you senseless.”

“The track (Brawler’s Fracture) is plenty oppressive and hurtles into a hurt-inducing display of quick-draw drum blasts, atonal noise-rock riffery and the frightening howls of Hamilton. Though never letting up in its intensity, the back half of the track slows down the pace considerably, opting for more snail-paced gloom and doom and distorted vocals.” – Exclaim

“of Ash / of Shit / of Shame is the total package when it comes to music that evokes anger just as much as it creates a claustrophobic atmosphere. Densely packed together math riffs and hoarse vocals, shared equally among all four members of the band, sit side by side with dark, almost Tim Burton-esque moments of strings and piano manipulation” – Metal Injection

“More than a band, it’s a primal scream, a rejection of comfort, and a point of convergence for all extremes and abysses” – Metal Oddities

“Adolyne has a new album out, it’s really fucking good if abrasion, self-loathing, discord and flirtations with the edge of out of control gets you hard/wet.” – Decibel Magazine

 

“Geezus. I have no idea how these guys keep getting more and more extreme. Expect plenty of bizarre breakdowns and a good thrashing that’s not unlike a beating with a burlap sack full of rabid cats.” – Ominocity.com

 

“The most obnoxious, misanthropic album I heard all year, this is the perfect soundtrack to your daily Two Minutes Hate” – Adrien Begrand, Pop Matters/Basement Galaxy

0 The Sludgelord – Anion – Fractions of Failure (No List Records)

  • June 6, 2016

  • · Anion (No List Records)

“Fractions of Failure” is an addictive blast that demands you to press play again before the dust can settle. Hopefully there’s more to come from Anion soon as these four tracks are an enticing glimpse at their powerful potential.
