Cynical Existence

What initially started out as a studio experiment rapidly turned into a real and massive musical entity: CYNICAL EXISTENCE was born! With this new promising solo-project, Swedish artist Fredrik Croona (also known as founder and lead vocalist of the aggrotech/industrial act PROJECT ROTTEN and also former vocalist of dark electro/industrial act MENSCHDEFEKT) offers a mixture of old school EBM with a harsher industrial tone while infusing more personal emotions into the compositions and stripping away the heavily processed vocals... CYNICAL EXISTENCE has no intention to reinvent the harsh elektro genre, and acknowledges inspiration from bands in the likes of [SITD], SUICIDE COMMANDO, GRENDEL, etc. Fredrik simply offers a powerful EBM sound where melodic synth lines collide with "less is more" upbeat sequences that are haunted by stand-out vocal angst. What characterizes CYNICAL EXISTENCE's work is most definitely the special atmosphere that wraps up his compositions, inviting you against any expectation to an intriguing introspective journey into Fredrik's dark soul and tortured mind. Mostly based on personal feelings and experiences, this project seems to be the perfect catharsis to his boiling personality...
