Imperative Reaction

Imperative Reaction is a perfect blend of emotionally driven vocals, punchy bass lines, and driving synths. Drawing from influences ranging everywhere from AFI and Nine Inch Nails to modern EBM and noise.

Over the past few years, Imperative Reaction has honed its explosive live performances through extensive touring with VNV Nation, Combichrist, Covenant and Tiger Army as well as appearing at the legendary Wave Gothic Treffen Festival in Germany, The Reverance Festival in Madison, a fierce performance at Detroit's Motorpop 3 and headlining the second night of The Black Sun Festival in the New Haven. 2009 promises to wrap up well with a new single, as well as an addendum tour to their latest album "Minus All", and their live performances are stronger than ever with the addition of Trevor Freidrich of Combichrist on drums and Adam Vex on keys and guitar.

Psyclon Nine

Summer of 2000 saw a match made in heaven when ex-roommates Marshall Carnage and Josef Heresy decided to form Psyclon Nine. The band started out as a guitar driven industrial band, heavily influenced by KMFDM and Ministry, but the members soon altered their style towards the more aggressive sounding industrial inspiration of bands like Wumpscut, Velvet Acid Christ, and Suicide Commando. Shortly thereafter, the band came together as a whole when Eric Gottesman, the frontman for See Colin Slash joined Carnage and Heresy.

In 2003, Psyclon Nine released their first album Divine Infekt, on Noitekk. The debut album gained the band popularity very quickly with its extremely fast paced music and lyrics.

For 2005, the band released its first U.S. album after signing with Metropolis Records. The album, INRI, featured thirteen tracks of dark, aggressive electro focused on religious themes. Not an album for the faint of heart, it was an all out assault on the senses. The album also featured a scorching cover of the Ministry song “You Know What You Are.”

Psyclon Nine hit their mark with INRI. With a devote hardcore fan base under their control, the band unleashed their next wave of sonic battery in 2006. Crwn Thy Frnicatr featured eleven skin crawling tracks of dark omniscient beats overlaid with haunting melodies and screaming whisper-like vocals. The album builds with the tormenting opener “Bellum In Abyssus” and continues its horrific attack with tracks such as “Parasitic,” “Better Than Suicide,” and “Crwn Thy Frnicatr” before the cleansing final track “The Purging.”

Over the course of their previous albums, Psyclon Nine has continued to evolve into its own sound, implementing elements of black metal, post-punk influences, metal, and industrial. Now, after three years of silence, Psyclon Nine return in 2009 with We The Fallen, its darkest, most aggressive album to date. For We The Fallen, Psyclon Nine has enlisted the help of Jason Miller (GodHead) for final tracking and mixing. Dark electro doesn’t get much more evil than this.

Inure

Inure was formed in the Summer of 1999, shortly after its founding members Adam Moore and Robert Vogel arrived in Los Angeles. With similar musical influences and tastes in production, the duo sought out to create a sound reminiscent of the 'golden era' of industrial dance music, injected with their unique and updated ideas of where they'd like to hear the genre move. With Adam's formal training in Audio Production at the Art Institute of Seattle, and Rob's lengthy programming and musical experience, the two easily began sculpting what became their debut album, "Seemless". Layered with heavy beats, driving basslines, and thick atmospheres, Inure managed to capture exactly what they were looking for - the depth and feel of classic industrial, with forward-thinking production and sound design. After the collapse of their label ( Dying Culture ) the duo continued performing live shows and officially welcomed Sam P. ( Pulse Legion, Imperative Reaction ) as a permanent third member of Inure. With months of dedicated studio work, the trio's second album "Subversive" saw release on Alfa Matrix after their club invasion with the "Disillusion" EP and the band’s various compilation appearances. Produced by Ted Phelps ( Imperative Reaction ), Inure's new material has been kicked up a notch, while still maintaining their trademark sound : Dark, malevolent, heavy and layered, with even more straight-forward imaginative synthwork and punchy beats. Inure will prove to be a major force and fusing their own sound into the evolution of the electro / industrial genre. Inure comes wholeheartedly recommended to fans of bands such as Numb, Velvet Acid Christ, Skinny Puppy etc...

Thanks to all those who attended. One of the larger crowds we've seen packed into Small's for a Darque Productions show. Hope you all had a blast. Got some photos I need to review and post. Will provide a link when they are up. Remember to check http://www.darqueproductions.com for any upcoming shows.
