To all listeners of The Medication Generation, thank you x10. The positive reviews and strong support are extremely reassuring for us to continue forging ahead amidst all the current chaos.

A lot of cancellation announcements from other bands always seem to have a tinge of ambiguous bullshit to ‘em, but we are laying out the facts. There were some last minute problems with transportation and finances. We have always been dilligent in making it out to play shows, but there were auto problems that became increasingly evident throughout the Portland/San Fran/Los Angeles shows and the decisions are now out of our control. Our fate rests with our tempermental automobile. Its pretty unstable after enduring 4000+ miles in 8 days.

Additionally, we are now minus an old friend, 60 lbs of spring loaded rusting metal that was the keyborg. We will miss that robo-demon construct, courtesy of Matt Flego’s mega imagination. In an effort to construct a replacement keyborg and get ourselves (and JP from Rabbit Junk/The Named) out to a remainder of the east coast/midwest tour stops, we are offering up tour merch for the CyaJunk crew to raise funds for the rest of tour. All orders will recieve a new Cyanotic vs Rabbit Junk digital EP featuring new tracks and remasters, including our unified cover "Gak Bitch" by The Shizit. Visit medicationgeneration.com to order. Thanks for your understanding and support during all the chaos. Its you, the listener, that keeps us thriving.

Please send any questions to sean@cyanotic.com or twitter.com/cyanotic.

A conceptual effort, The Medication Generation is based on the making of the album itself, exploring the lives of Cyanotic and those around them, as seen through the eyes of frontman Sean Payne over the past three years. Twisting between cycles of self-destruction, over-stimulation and moments of clarity polluted by mass media and present day society, Cyanotic’s sonic ADD makes The Medication Generation a defining record for heavy electronic music.

In support of The Medication Generation, Cyanotic will be joining forces with Unter Null (and Rabbit Junk/The Named on select dates) on the 2010 Detox Tour from July 6th to August 14th. For full tour dates and details please visit http://www.cyanotic.com or http://www.myspace.com/unternull.

The return of The Shizit. One of the main influences for Cyanotic was always JP Anderson’s pre-Rabbit Junk project The Shizit, an intense mix of digital hardcore beats, metal guitars and rave synths. It’s been 8 years of silence, but The Shizit is back. Download the new self-titled album entirely for free right here. 11 tracks featuring guest appearances by Cyanotic. Spread the music like the audio plague it is. Summer 2010 tour to follow! More info @ myspace.com/shizitshizitshizit.

The new Prehab 25mg-EP is here. The first dose of new sounds. Limited to only 1000 copies, Prehab 25mg is the precursor to The Medication Generation, a futuristic audio assault exploring the excess of self-medication and mass media saturation in present day society. Prehab 25mg features new tracks from the forthcoming Med:Gen full length album and EP exclusives. This is the definitive soundtrack to a dystopian world view.

Decide for yourself and hear the Prehab 25mg-EP now, streaming in its entirety at Bit Riot Records for a limited time.

As a bonus, Cyanotic is offering an instant download of rarities, collaborations and remixes to those who pre-order Prehab 25mg online @ the Bit Riot Records store starting today.

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.

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.

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.

June 24th will see the release of the long awaited compilation “Cyanotic Presents: Gears Gone Wild”, the latest in an ongoing series of compilations put together by Sean Payne and his Chicago based electro glitch metal band Cyanotic.
