CROSS STITCHED EYES

 

The US / UK / German collective Cross Stitched Eyes, follows

in the tradition of anarchist punk and demonised death rock

(Rudimentary Peni, Amebix and Killing Joke). Embracing the many

irrational and visceral shades of this style's darkest corners, the music

decidedly rejects traditional copy-and-paste guidelines of musical conformity

with a puncturing attitude. The harsher side of Cross Stitched Eyes derives

directly from the band's artistic influences and its deconstructed presentation.

CSEs track "We Follow" evokes reactions to seemingly

unchanging lifestyles with a vitriolic diatribe. Others like "Animated Corpse"

and "Earth's Defiant" display a lyrical depth seldom heard these days.

At times benign, at others aggressive, CSE explores the complicated relationship

between dark and light in a repulsive world filled with gloom.

CEDRON

CEDRON hails from a dying city in northern Sweden.

The four-piece are young, but still have had the chance to tour Sweden

with some of it’s more renowned hardcore bands as well as played the

country’s largest metal festival.

WATCHING THE SUN TURN PITCH BLACK, the bands debut EP,

revolves around the theme of con- sumption, decay and ignorance.

In six songs CEDRON takes the listener through childhood friendship,

ro- mantic uncertainty and political aggression, all whilst playing metal riffs

in the vein of Bring Me The Horizon with the intensity from Refused.

The band will embark on new tours to support their fresh EP,

the first one in the spring along with fellow swedes Yersinia. Make sure

you catch these guys live; as the songs promises, it is impossible to stand

still hearing tunes like ‘Rumours’ and ‘Still Growing’ in a crowded room.

CEDRON is a cry for those without voice, life in a dying genre,

and a legacy in the making.
