’I Choose Violence’ is the first single from a forthcoming new album by the cult US act Psyclon Nine.
Melding elements of Industrial Rock, Metal, Deathcore, Ambient and Trap, band mastermind Nero Bellum states: “I specifically set out to break as many genre limitations as possible with this song, while staying true to the concepts and imagery that Psyclon Nine evokes. Lyrically, it’s a reflection of the world we live in. An anthem for the unseen and unheard.”
Psyclon Nine will headline a 22 date North American ‘Devils Work’ tour commencing on 31st January 2025, while there are plans to tour Europe later in the year.
Since forming in 2000, Psyclon Nine has cemented a reputation as one of the most infamous yet successful bands of the Industrial and Metal crossover scenes, often credited as being the founders of the Blackened Industrial sub-genre. Each of their seven full-length releases to date have charted internationally, appearing in the Top 10 of the DAC (Germany) and Top 200 Billboard Rock Chart (USA).
A substantial dedicated fanbase has been built via regular international touring that has included European festivals such as Dark Malta, Castle Party (Poland) and four appearances at Wave Gotik Treffen (Germany), each to audiences of 30,000+ fans.
The band’s current album, ‘Less To Heaven’ (2022) saw them charting undefined musical territory that bridged metalcore with doom electronics, trip-techno with black metal and experimental cinematic soundscapes with alternative rock. Featuring the singles ‘Money And Sex And Death’ VIDEO and ‘See You All In Hell’ VIDEO, a remix companion album entitled ‘More To Hell’ was subsequently issued in early 2023.
