16 Volt tour w/ Cyanotic vs Rabbit Junk west coast!

June 27th, 2009

A whole lot of west coast fans have been asking for Cyanotic to come back around since our first west coast tour back in 2k7. We’re beyond ecstatic to be announcing a mega lineup like this for our return.

Cyanotic and Rabbit Junk will be teaming up as a single entity to give fans a full bore audio/visual sensory assault for a round of special engagement west coast shows with our good buddies (and major influences) in 16 Volt.

We’re going to have a Cyanotic vs Rabbit Junk tour
sampler available, featuring songs from our upcoming album “The Medication Generation”, as well as exclusive tracks from both bands. Full tracklisting and details coming soon.

This is going to be two words. Fuckin’. Mighty. That really does say it all.

Spread the word the best you can. Lets do this up right-like. We’re looking forward to playing and partying with all the wonderful people who come out to these shows and make us remember why we make this loud noise.

October 17th, 2008

The new Prehab 25mg-EP is here. The first dose of new sounds.

Let us know what you think. Responses have been pouring in since we made the secret launch of new Cyanotic site last night. Its great to know our fans are enjoying this first dose of new sounds.

Cyanotic fall tour, live video and DJ set

August 26th, 2008

Its been just under a year since the psychotranshumanoid west coast tour featuring the power trio of Acumen Nation, DJ? Acucrack and Cyanotic. It was almost three weeks of the best times we have had on the road, sharing the stage and the road with the acu-crew, we were like a roaming tribe of industrial frat boys.

We are all smiles today, with news that the psychotranshumanoid east coast edition will be happening from November 6th through the 22nd. Right before winter bites everybody in the ass and sends people into hibernation, Acumen Nation, DJ? Acucrack and Cyanotic will be hitting the stage with a full audio/visual assault, complete with lights, video and a whole lot of retro-industrial swagger.

We are very happy to announce that Eris (from Born into Oblivion) has joined Cyanotic as a permanent member on live drums. He’s been a huge help since joining up for the 16 Volt tour in June and we have nothing short of praise for the guy. Its a great time for Cyanotic right now, finally solidifying our lineup that has been constantly in rotation since our inception. He’s definitely helpful in “bringing the heavy”, as we like to say, adding that extra layer of human rhythm atop all the machine beats and alien noises.

New live footage from our show in Milwaukee, WI last weekend. “Sensory Overload” on YouTube. Check it.

The last incarnation of the psychotranshumanoid tour was the best experience we have had on the road in our five years of playing live, so we have high hopes that this excursion will be just as great. Remember that as cliche as it might sounds, its the fans that make it worthwhile for us bands, it would mean a lot less to us if we were playing empty rooms every night, so keep that in mind. Downloadable fliers are available HERE — help spread the word and make it worthwhile for us road worn rock bands.

Its been a couple of monumental years for us, having the chance to tour/hang out with our biggest influences and meet so many great people along the way, its given us the inspiration to keep going and given our lives a real purpose. Being on the road is the ultra experience, like a lifetime of memories in just a couple weeks. We can’t wait to get back out on the road and see some familiar faces.

sean's dj set @ radioactive

As a final note to those of you in the Chicago area, Sean Payne will be playing a DJ set at Smart Bar (located directly below Metro, if you have never been there) along with Cringer and Boy13 at 10pm on Wednesday, August 27 as part of the Radio Active monthly industrial event. If that’s not reason enough to come out, there will also be $2 PBR cans, $3 SoCo, $3 Jack Daniels and free pizza.

tours, new music, lotsa stuffs!

May 15th, 2008

It’s been a quiet couple of first months in 2008, but with miserable winter behind us and spring in the air it’s time to fill in the fans who keep asking what’s up.

To start, Cyanotic will be playing a special event this Sunday @ Spot 6 in Chicago. The address is 3343 N Clark. Opening acts for the evening will be our good buddy Ad-ver-sary, all the way from Ottawa, as well as The Strand, all the way from Phoenix. Tickets are $7. This will be our first time playing new songs from forthcoming “Medication Generation” album and debuting a new batch of video projections. Come out and enjoy life away from a computer screen.

This summer, Cyanotic will be joining 16 Volt and Bella Morte for select dates throughout the midwest, east coast and Canada. Eris from Born Into Oblivion is going to be joining us as a live drummer, imported all the way from Canada to play, party and join us for bouts of sleep deprivation.

We are honored that 16 Volt asked us to be a part of this tour. This past year had us playing shows and touring with so many of the bands that inspired us to start making music in the first place. Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, Acumen Nation, DJ? Acucrack, Meat Beat Manifesto, Chemlab and now 16 Volt, the last name on our list of major influences that we hoped to play with. Come out and enjoy the experience with us.

Check www.16volt.com/tour for full US tour dates.

To coincide with the tour, we will be selling the new compilation we have been assembling over the past few months. The end result is “Cyanotic Presents - Gears Gone Wild”, featuring exclusive tracks from 16 Volt, Acumen Nation, DJ? Acucrack, Rabbit Junk, end.user, genCAB, InfoCollapse, Prude (feat. members of Chemlab, Cyanotic and Caustic), mindfluxfuneral and many more.

Its a varied mix of heavy electronic rock, electro dancefloor bangers, hard drum n bass and weirdo oddities, and we’re looking forward to releasing it to the masses for an uber cheap price. We will be posting artwork and a full tracklisting soon.

We look forward to seeing our loyal east coast and midwest fanbase again, partying with our stalwart regulars, getting to drink some Yuengling and finally returning to Canada. See you all in the near future.

We appreciate help with promotion, something as simple as telling a friend or posting a topic on a message board. Spread the word. These will be some memorable shows.

Also, support our buddies in Rabbit Junk. New album “This Life Is Where You Get Fucked” out now. Sean of Cyanotic drops some old school gangsta samples throughout the songs “Black” and “Ghetto Blasphemer”. Check www.rabbitjunk.com for more.
