Biography

Cruentus is one of the most innovative contemporary metal bands with music that can be described as a complex fusion of industrial, metal, math-core and progressive. The Band started to operate in the mid 1999 in Szczecin, Poland [WestPomerania]. Since then it has never stop evolving - each release brings major development in context of musical style. In 2010 the band released it's 2nd LP "Terminal Code". Lyrically Terminal Code is a concept concerning contemporary urban-reality. Stress and blind run for the needless and non-understandable perfection, algorithmisation of every aspect of our existence. Reflection of a world in which delving for true sense is passé. Terminal Code is a self-contemplation in foam of chemical stimulants, with pulsing metropolis in the background. A vision seen by the eyes of an entity which persevered last scrap of conscious judgment but will ultimately fall down, stroke by rapid emotional mutation. 2018 brought the band’s long awaited 3rd LP “Every Tomorrow”. It is a short reflection on the internal conflict between the conscious mind of a technocratic individual and an undefined spiritual longing. It’s a critical look on the so-called technological renaissance, which by trying to define everything, classifies and labels, inevitably taking away that which lies ‘in between’. A dominant, ruthless determinism versus the freedom of an intellectual and emotional drift that symbolizes unbound creativity whose very aim is to seek.
