Created in the winter of 2001, CENTHRON started life as an electronic intimacy between Elmar Schmidt (voice/synth/programming) and Jörg Herrmann (Progamming) resulting in their first demo "Melek Taus" in 2002, as CENTHRON did not want to arrive for their first gig, supporting FEINDFLUG, without a recorded product...
After their first two albums, "Lichtsucher" in 2003 and "Gottwerk" in 2006, both released on very underground kind of labels, the project finally released "Roter Stern" on Scanner in 2009 – an album that was great success for Scanner and CENTHRON alike, leading to the band being invited by German shooting stars AGONOIZE on their big German tour.
Since then the project played with the likes of SUICIDE COMMANDO, REAPER, PSYCLON NINE, GRENDEL, SOMAN and many more, and Elmar Schmidt has been working hard in his studio to create - in a megalomaniac sort of way – without a doubt the most danceble CENTHRON album ever: "Dominator"! The fat sound of the album is again mixed by Jan L., and displays an aggressiveness that even in the harshest of all electroscenes will fail to find comparisons; "Dominator" is bound to dominate the industrial/electro dancefloors this spring!
