AnormA

Death Metal / Industrial / Experimental

Vesoul/Strasburg, France

Biography

AnormA is a french band which plays a sort of metal with an industrial mind. We exist since the XXth Century (98) and have recorded a first longplayer called "In destruction" in 2004. We have toured then from time to time in France, before we reentered the (home)studio for what will be our second try, a now being mixed sonic object which will as soon as possible find the way to your ears and your hands.

Words and mind

Our lyrics are propaganda poetry, raised between the tragedy and the beauty of the machines, of the sounds of the industrialized society. We are yelling because we are caught in a trap, but in the same way, we enjoy to hear its mechanical tone. Out of deconstruction and analysis, no escape... Even if it isn't subject or part of the bands lyrics or music, we are convinced antifascists and antiracists and antisexists.

Influences

Main influences are Godflesh, Ministry, and Meshuggah - metal bands which elvolve in very specific mood, but AnormA make a point to include in the composition of the songs the fact that the today society is a post-industrialized one: everything is being mechanical (and can be then corroded by the use), symetric, planified, repetitive like an assembly line cycle. We find our other influences in the whole art area, especially in things like electronic industrial, noise, free or soft jazz, ambient, sound of the urban kingdom...we don't like to fix limits to our curiosity, what inspires us is what we have the occasion to listen analyse and destroy (in a metaphoric way, of course). We could then evoke the works of labels like Audiotrauma, Ant-Zen, Ad Noiseam or Zhark, or projects like Zorn, Cage, Henry, Ligeti, Penderecki, Thordendal, Merzbow, D'aubigné, Giger, Masson, Kandinsky, Kollwitz, Domela, Dostoeivski, Beckett, Conrad, Miyazaki, Lang, Kurosawa, Von trier, Shinji, Siratori, Tenzin Gyatso, Hakim Bey, Makhno, Jelinek
