Dirty Sound Magnet
Transgenic
While the previous album Western Lies was a sarcastic, unrestrained critique of the shortcomings of our western
civilization, Transgenic focuses on individual behaviors within it. Drowned in this world of advanced technology and
hyper-consumerism, individuals struggle to discover their inner self or communicate with each other. The album lays out
a disturbing view of the present and the near future, with the significance of Social Media, and increasingly alarming
ecological issues giving shape to an Orwellian dystopia.
The egocentric practices inherent to Social Media are mocked by Stavros insolent lyrics and tone. The drama and
loneliness of "Modern Man" is highlighted across Transgenic, with emotional issues and personal experiences completing
the lyrical content. Musically, The album draws on the last 50 years of Pop Culture, with some touches of traditional
folk music, but as a whole, Transgenic is true Rock.
Production-wise, the band plays with light and shade and introduces the terms "Organic" and "Transgenic" as musical
concepts. When delving into the organic realm, the sound is warmer, and the recording techniques used are vintage.
