Death enslaved SIVA SIX for more than 2 years under its wings for the creation of “DeathCult”. With sonic commander Psychon (mix/mastering/production) by their side, they stared straight into the Beast’s eyes with humility and respect. They walked its path and learned its ways. They were marked with his seal and ultimately entered into communion with it.

The infamous entity of SIVA SIX spit their much anticipated 5th full length studio album into your face! From alfa, “Ghost Dance”, …to omega, “…December”, “DeathCult” is a true masterpiece.

Z (vocals) and U-Ri (keyboard) invite you to the ultimate danse macabre and deliver their most dramatic, darkish and poignant opus ever. From ghostly choirs and possessed harsh screams to hellish hammering rhythms, SIVA SIX serve us a lethal elixir distilling the artists various influences ranging from dark electro, industrial to EBM, through classical avantgarde and goth.

See them…feel them…and “Ghost Dance” with ‘ em…

Constructed on the foundations of the 19th century “Gnossienne No1” masterpiece by French avant-garde pianist and composer Erik Satie, this new song expands the haunting atmosphere of the original piece and takes it to a darker and macabre dimension once reflected through the obscure sonic kaleidoscope of SIVA SIX. The tortured dark vocals, the echoing icy piano lines, the oppressive atmosphere and the upbeat electro sequences all contribute to the particular, disturbing and almost deviant setting of this noir song.

This single comes with 3 radically different reinterpretations by MACH FOX, CONJECTURE and MYSTICAL PROLETARIAN.

See them…feel them…and “Ghost Dance” with ‘ em…

This time “Nyx” brings us one step further into the apocalyptic concept of SIVA SIX’s last studio album “Dawn Of Days”. Some 17 unique artists reinterpret SIVA SIX’s apocalyptic visions. Each respective remixer had to fight with their own monsters and chose their own paths… Where does one head to after facing his own self? How do people deal with the apocalypse of the spiritual world? And what will be the next steps? Beware of the Night that may come next and reveal all the truth, the burden is hard, and never forget that you are not alone in this life-trip… Some paths are lead by Death and other delusions that the Night is full of, others are guided towards the light… But who will be mesmerized by the ultimate beauty and the explosive power that draw you into eternal sleep?

Let the story begins, featuring the dark industrial metal monster-minds FREAKANGEL, the Mexican dancefloor heroes C-LEKKTOR, the infamous techno DJ and renown producer Christian Cambas, the premium French harsh industrial band A-7IE, Belgium’s METROLAND and their unique nostalgic 80’s sound, other American label-mates VENAL FLESH and their edgy dark sound, the astonishing technoir / retro wave remix of CYBORGDRIVE, TECHNOLORGY and their great electro / synth dance floor remix, Greek surrealistic musician Anna Stereopoulou and her chaotic remix, the top notch remix by THE DEAD FOR A WHILE, Dutch WOLFCHILD and their nightmarish dark elektro style, the powerful German TBM newcomer ANTIBODY, guitarist Jimmy Tott for a sentimental analogue post/rock epic remix, Sakis Darkface with his cinematic masterpiece remix, Berlin based UNHUMAN and his ritual techno, IN MISERY’s brilliant hypnotising dark electro chant and last but not least, as final bonus track, ANAKIN LIGHTNING remixes one of SIVA SIX’s most unique tracks “Nemesis” from the previous “Superstition” EP a track no one until now had dared to remix…

Nyx has now definitely taken control of the noir dancefloors until eternity.

Cult duo SIVA SIX return in full force with their 4th full length studio album, definitely their most diverse album ever, a free dive into the depth of your soul with sound and words as your only companion! An electronic and analog ritual full of dirty, bombastic, apocalyptic and emotional dark electro/industrial from  Athens’ infamous band renown for favoring quality to quantity! And it’s no surprise that it took them 3 years to complete this new chef d’oeuvre since their successful “Superstition” EP…
 
Besides SIVA SIX’s characteristic harsh dark elektro style, “Dawn Of Days” also takes another sonic dimension by integrating traditional eastern instruments such as oud, yayli tambur or yet theremin played by talented theater musician G. Diamantopoulos (check splendid songs like “Twenty Eight”, “Until Death Reunite Us”, “The Messenger”…) as well as the awesome guitar parts of Boog (JUNKSISTA) on a unique cover version of the “28 Days Later” movie-soundtrack’s main theme.

The eternal confrontation between light and darkness is being fulfilled on “Dawn of Days”, exactly when the dilemma between going up or down becomes your own call… This new album pushes all somber elektro boundaries and carries us into a world of chaos dominated by Death victoriously marching on the Earth under a bloody red sky oppressed by echoing war roars.

Upbeat club tracks like the instant hit “Αποκάλυψις”, the devilish “Daylord” and the unmistakable “Superstition” all carry you straight to hell on Earth, while  “Twenty Eight” lets you suffocate in the center of the pandemonium before “High On Low” confronts you with yourself in front of the mirror of eternity. The album also has its shimmering slower moments on a dramatic lingering (love?) song like “Until Death Reunites Us” or the closing chapter “The Messenger”… From the ass-kicking opening assault of “To The Light” to the album’s enchanting last battle, SIVA SIX escort you on a dark trip through the ultimate battle between good and evil from which only your spiritual power can save you…

SIVA SIX once again emerges from the flood of dark elektro mass productions and proves to us that this music genre still can be more than relevant anno 2016 once you put love, hate, blood and brain in the creative cauldron. Shall you break the spell that bounds your soul and say the words that open the gate? ΑΠΟΚΑΛΥΨΙΣ

From dark electro to industrial, from black metal and tech-house to ‘just a guitar and a voice”: that’s what “Superstition” is all about! Exclusive new songs and multiple new remixes from the current album, “Superstition” is another must-have super limited 15-track EP release with splendid magick design by Zila…

Who dares to face his own superstitions? What does it take to stand out? On this new EP, SIVA SIX breaks all scene superstitions and reveals their true nature: the core of what separates SIVA SIX from being another sad clone… “For those who patterned music and copy themselves again and again: there is no glory. Glory belongs to the brave… We have seen the signs… and YES: there will be superstitions!!!”.

The fruit of two intense and laborious years of studio work, “The Twin Moons” album unlocks new mysteries from the history of mankind and fulfills SIVA SIX’s compelling Hell-prophecy. Combining Protools HD technology and the bombastic recordings of the real orchestras of maestro Chris Antoniou (famous for his work with CHAOSTAR, SEPTIC FLESH…), SIVA SIX offers to us a very strong duality album concept constructed around contrasts and opposites. 

Dark elektro and IDM soundscapes embrace EBM and harsh industrial for the ultimate sound of the apocalypse where Earth and Stars become one, where Hell blows up Paradise and men and angels start falling down like flames from the sky in front of the bewitching rise of the Serpent Whore. Failure, vengeance and victory… “The Twin Moons” is the powerful soundtrack of humanity’s apocalyptic descent in the shimmering light of the twin moons reaching its acme on the unexpected cover of Vangelis Papathanasiou’s epic ‘Blade Runner”… 

The angel brothers of the night, Z and Herr Khaos, deliver their best album ever and prove that the dark elektro genre still has much to offer when it is taken by the horns. Bringing the sonic experience to an all new level where orchestral arrangements enter in symbiosis with powerful elektro machine sounds led by harsh vocals plunging us in the unique mystic atmosphere of a theatrical setting where both Armageddon and Arthemis hold the strings of the plot. 

The visual aspect of this conceptual album is splendidly rendered by the infamous designer Jerome Cross (ARCTURUS, MAYHEM, ROTTING CHRIST, etc.).

This CD is also available as an extended bonus tracks download – see the player below.
