On this 12-track album, Pedro “ACYLUM” Engel and Nadine “COORAZ” Engel drag us one more time on the battlefield and bring us close to the overall bloody atmosphere of hatred, violence, terror and war. Faithful to their provocative approach, ACYLUM do not hesitate confronting humanity once again with its miserable existence, placing it in front of a mirror and challenging all of us to stand up strong beyond our ideas and own beliefs rather than getting preconceived concepts and opinions fed to us, pushing us into corners where we don’t feel comfortable to sit.

Musically, ACYLUM fans will recognize the barbarian hellektro duo’s characteristic sound: rough and powerful, hammering and almost deviant, but the new tracks also reveal a subliminal catchiness and melodic approach through noise that reinforces their addictive force. Our daily orgy of violence and cowardice translated and distilled through boiling synth machines, oppressive (mostly German) vocal samples and aggressive distorted vocals.  Besides a heavy load of new harsh hammering dark elektro club hits, we will also notice an impressive multi-lingual collaboration effort with 6 other bands on the remake of the band’s classic song “The Enemy” as well as the icy and oppressive “Masquerade” evoking a jamming session between :WUMPSCUT: and HAUS ARAFNA around the hot thematic of the Covid19 pandemic.

The first edition of this album is released as a deluxe double-CD digipak edition, revealing the amazing deviant and noir art of talented Japanese designer Tomoki Hayasaka (www.sheerheart.jp) and offering some 14 exclusive bonus remixes by SUICIDE COMMANDO, ARMAGEDDON DILDOS, IMPLANT, AESTHETISCHE, MENTAL EXILE, NANO INFECT, ASSEPTIC ROOM, ICE AGES, LARVA, ADVENT RESILIENCE, PROJECT ERRATIC, DIRTY K, SCHWARZSTERN and DAVID BLACKSTAR.

“Zucht” confirms that AENGELDUST has definitely found the perfect balance between her uncompromising heavy industrial noise influences and her taste for aggressive dark elektro assaults, delivering highly addictive hypnotik elektro noizz tormented by repetitive provocative voice samples.

Rising from her uncompromising roots of strict industrial noise, AENGELDUST adds structure in her compositions and injects harsh elektro layers and heavy provocative samples to make her work progress more towards bands like early-DIVE, FEINDFLUG or yet DIOXYDE. Adding this way some kind of hypnotic noise melodic sequences and viral synths layers to her “AK47 industrial sounds” à la SONAR versus MARITA SCHRECK. “Agent Orange” is there to atomize all underground clubs playing merciless industrial tunes to their dislocating masochistic audience. Oppressive vocal samples (mostly in German) reinforce the dense atmosphere of the songs while the hammering beats keep on marching till the edge of the “endzeit” world. The machine noises act like electro shocks and trigger an overwhelming sensation of contradictory neural reactions intensifying the addiction to these alien mesmerizing tunes. AENGELDUST is harsh industrial noize to play at maximum volume.  AENGELDUST is not for the fainthearted and requires parental advisory.

“Agent Orange”’s sonic warfare even gets augmented here by blasting guest appearances by CIRCUITO CERRADO, FABRIKC, PROJECT ERRATIC and DJ Ele.  

The underworld bitch is back once again with her sonic army to blow up your industrial standards at full blast… Enjoy the kick!
