On October 18, 2013, Dutch electro act Synthetica will release their second album 'The City of Dis', inspired by the famous Dante's Inferno and bands like Tactical Sekt and Skinny Puppy.
There has always been fear for the end of times. Synthetica's first album focussed on possible ways for the world to end. Their second release goes beyond this and describes the afterlife according to Dante Alighieri, a 14th century writer.
Besides this central theme, subjects as industrial and economical progression throughout the centuries are embedded in the new songs.
The tracks contain a wide variety of electro, from mesmerizing ambient melodies to harsh and violent beats. Ed Schaap created the artwork,the music was arranged by Satan himself. Prepare for a 68 minute journey through the heart of darkness.
