Cynicon

Cynicon came into being around 2000, the band mutating from a previous atmospheric black metal band called Solemn, Madder Mortem. Eventually the members wanted to attempt a more aggressive, futuristic take on black metal, and so Cynicon was born. Cybernetic, their 2003 debut release, lives up to its name, the album being an electronic-infused slice of modern black metal, not too far removed from what ... And Oceans was doing a short while ago. It's not a perfect album (the production's a bit sterile, and when the vocalist goes for the King Diamond-inspired yelp, it doesn't quite work), but it's quite effective, and a recommended purchase for those into the more techno-oriented side of black metal.
