Haunted Plasma
I (black)
The debut album from Haunted Plasma, a powerhouse of futuristic synth in symbiosis with the super violent atmospherics of kosmische black metal. Haunted Plasma is "man meets machine" in a cybernetic wasteland, set to a conceptual backdrop of William Gibson and Phillip K. Dick style mind-melt. The highly evolved creatives at the heart of Haunted Plasma's sound, cite Terry Riley, Massive Attack, a contemporary take on krautrock hypnosis, psychedelic black metal and '90s techno, resulting in an orgy of mutant sound. The phantoms at the beating nucleus of this unearthly machine are Juho Vanhanen (Oranssi Pazuzu, Grave Pleasures), Timo Kaukolampi (K-X-P, Op:l Bastards) and Tomi Leppänen (Circle, Aavikko, K-X-P), transmitting a music form evolved from a life of redefining sonic boundaries in their respective projects.
