Terror Cognitive Dissonance - TRANSFIGURE US

Underworld War goes beyond the raw and chaotic sound it represents. Inspired a post-apocalyptic world where destruction is the only vital principle, this is a future vision of the decadent world in which we will live, where humans will be hunted by other humans, where the earth will once again be wild, where we will regress to what we were: unscrupulous beings, with a predatory instinct and with a single purpose: to survive. Man is the most ruthless beast that has ever set foot on the planet, and after thousands of years of progress towards the evolution and civilization of humanity, we are doomed to taking the reverse path towards uncertainty and the survival of our species. We are our greatest enemy, and the course of history has shown this. Economic, ideological, territorial wars, and a new model of biological warfare that is in full swing. The idea of ​​peace is far from the world today, and it is an irrevocable march towards progressive annihilation caused by competition and the visceral desire for conquest. This war has already broken out for a long time back, but it is an underground war; more complex, massive and technical. Returning to our wildest roots through the extermination of this civilization already caducous, is the only possible destination of an end that will bring a new beginning, where life and death come together in the same reality.

Underworld War is made up of extreme sounds from genres such as martial, power electronics, death industrial, harsh noise wall, gore noise, rhythmic noise, powerviolence and an aggressive style of spoken word, including parts recorded under improvisation and live performance.

Terror Cognitive Dissonance - Influences (II)

The winter solstice is the coldest time and the longest night of the year. All the leaves have fallen, nature sleeps, it is the moment of greatest darkness before the light returns. It is the rebirth, the first spark of hope that emerges from the deepest darkness. It is a waiting moment. Of withdrawal and meditation. It takes time to wake up to a new cycle after death. Life awaits the moment of rebirth under the earth. It is an auspicious moment to meditate on darkness. It is a time of attentive waiting in which we can observe ourselves and discover ourselves. A hope of rebirth trusting that after the phase of greater darkness the life that sleeps under the earth will be reborn, thus completing the cycle of eternal return. In this winter solstice ritual I intend to deepen some esoteric and philosophical theories through live sonic frequencies.

''Life Is Pain'' is a musical piece in the form of alternative soundtrack of the Begotten movie (1991), replacing its original audio. It is a live built in real time during the viewing of the film, using drum machines, synthesizers and vocal effects. With this, I intend to express through the sound, the sinister, visceral, extreme and strange experience in equal parts, which evokes in our mind the visualization of each Begotten photogram, with aggressive and dark electronic styles as Noise, Power Electronics, Death Industrial and Dark Ambient. The power of impact, both sonorous and visual, has no other purpose than to imposingly delight of art to disturb our psyches and subconscious. With this alternative soundtrack I want to pay a tribute to one of the most important experimental horror films in history. 

Begotten is a 1991 American experimental dark fantasy horror film written, produced, edited and directed by E. Elias Merhige. It is a narration and re-imagining of the book of Genesis. In the story, a god uses a knife to mutilate himself, and dies. A woman comes along, and recognizing his godhood, uses his corpse to get pregnant, and gives birth to a son. The son and she are captured and disemboweled by a nomadic tribe. Presented in a surreal, gory and entirely visual manner, Begotten tells of the death of religion, the abuse of nature by Man and a nihilistic outlook on what life ultimately is.
