SYNCFACTORY is back with their second full length album, «Meat Stall»! The basic building blocks are the same as on the debut album «Panopticon»: energetic old school dark electro / EBM with multi-layered melodies and aggressive vocals. However, the songs on ‘Meat Stall’ have a slightly more modern sound, and many of them have a deliciously rich athmospheric quality.
Thematically some songs were inspired by art. ‘Meat Stall‘ is an interpretation of Pieter Aertsen’s painting “A Meat Stall with the Holy Family Giving Alms”; ‘Land of Frost‘ contains only phrases that can be found in Franz Kafka’s writings; ‘Swarm of Lies‘ contains a quote from Dylan Thomas; and the entire text of ‘Talo‘ is taken from a poem written by the Finnish poet Uuno Kailas. As examples of other themes, ‘Hell Is Her‘ is a tip of the hat to Jean-Paul Sartre, and ‘Black Dog‘ is a depiction of depression. «Meat Stall» contains ten new songs and two awesome remixes from HOLOCODER and DISTORTED WORLD.
Tracklist: 1. Meat Stall (3:38) 2. Land of Frost (2:54) 3. Hell Is Her (3:55) 4. Black Dog (3:20) 5. Pro Tempore (3:12) 6. Talo (3:43) 7. Failure (4:05) 8. Mind's Eye (5:12) 9. Swarm of Lies (3:26) 10. Second Chance (3:39) 11. Mind's Eye (Holocoder Remix) (6:32) 12. Swarm of Lies (Distorted World Remix) (3:05)
