The sound in the band's very first experience was totally influenced by the industrial metal movement, due to the production of P.F. and the background of the musicians featured in the project.
Carlo Bellotti was singer and leader of the fl metal cult band Necromass, and Paolo Favati was a significant influence in the European Electro-Industrial scene.

It was the 'Pyschodrama' period that saw Ultraviolence begin to emerge as the head of the burgeoning London cybergoth scene, an outrageous gathering of over-dressed, confrontational party animals who enjoyed the beat-driven good-time dance ethic, but preferred the twisted, perverted path that Ultraviolence chose to take them down...
Ultraviolence seemed to be the crossover reference point for those that enjoyed the lunacy of Napalm Death and Industrial Strength Records on the one hand, and the darkness of Nine Inch Nails and Laibach on the other.
Ultraviolence 2001 - and new album "Superpower" continues the tradition - anthemic, hard-driven techno track "Elektra" is sure to have the cyberscene dancing their extensions off, but nods in an as yet unexplored direction are beginning to emerge with the sheer major league accessibility of 'Separation'....

In a statement, the band said: "Dave has been suffering with health and personal problems for a while now and he has decided that it would be best if he left the band to concentrate on his recovery.
What impresses one more than the band's heavy as lead death metal is the loyalty the lads and lass show their brutal and to the point style.

 Mental Abuse - NJHC - Photos - CBGB's with Billy Psycho
Since many hardcore bands in the 1980's were not from wealthy backgrounds, in most cases the bands didn’t have the financial resources to release their own records.
Bands who were very good, but only recorded a demo or only appeared on a compilation are often forgotten by everyone, despite being as good or sometimes better than their better known contemporaries who were lucky enough to have the opportunity to release records
The band, STORMTROOPERS OF DEATH (S.O.D.) became one of the most popular (and controversial) crossover bands ever because of their classic record, "Speak English or Die" and the controversy surrounding it’s extremely politically incorrect lyrics.

Ultraviolence deserved billing over Synapscape as their show was more 'spectacular' and got far more people onto the dancefloor, but then that's the nature of what they do.
There is a large fanbase for the sound that bands like Project X put out and I see no reason for them not to make more substantial in-roads into the international EBM scene once their second album finally appears.

The band could not find a label that was willing to take Genocide seriously enough to press their album.
The band has consistently dismissed the rumours as erroneous, pointing out the apolitical and often tongue-in-cheek nature of their lyrics and insisting they simply enjoyed antagonising audiences.
There is some life in the band yet: Relapse re-released Horrified again in 2003, drawing attention to Repulsion once more, and prompting the band to resume live performance.

With the departure of vocalist Mark Osegueda, however, the band decided to change both name and style, and so two albums were released as The Organization, neither of which really caught on with the public, and the band quietly faded away.
The members carried on in various local bands (one of which was Swarm), but it wasn't until 2002 that four of the five original members got back together and officially reformed the band.
Death Angel remains one of the creative forces in thrash, and The Art Of Dying is a welcome comeback from the band.

I'm pretty sure you're not going to have a release on Stillborn Records unless your band deserves to have the word "brutal" in the description of their sound.
The songs are repetitive and it reminds me of 5 or 6 bands that I don't like.
I seriously know nothing about this band other than they're really catchy and this stuff is going to stay stuck in my head all day.

 Guitar Nine Records - "Antares: The GranDesign" Review Featured In Buzz Magazine, August, 1998
One track in particular, "Ultraviolence", was also chosen for inclusion on "Trackspotting 3".
Far from being a nostalgic look back at 80's New (Old) Wave, the band is a vital entity, who on Joe's first tour with them, played to capacity crowds in New York City, Cahrlotte, NC (With Soul Asylum and the Wallflowers) and Atlanta, GA (with Tonic).
Joe's unique brand of guitar crunch adds a new edge that compliments both the band's current material and the classic Top 10 hits, such as "I Ran" and "Space Age Love Song".

 Sorted magAZine: Sordid reviews
The thing is, does anyone expect great albums from Ultraviolence or are we more than satisfied with a few tracks guaranteed to turn the dancefloor into a seething mass, I know I am.
Apologising to a band you'd written off when it turns out they'd some great stuff left in them is one such.
The Azoic are not the same as before and for the rest of us, who don't expect EBM bands to sound the same forever (and are just as happy when they go dance) this is a joy.

 FREQ - Reviews Artists - U
Those not under the influence enough to have longer than nano-second brain refresh rate can revel in digga-digga-digga-ugh rhythms, shivery E-tickling chords, some curiously flattened imprecations to love and hate (a favourite has to be the deadpan rap of "North Korea Goes Bang!") and several unfortunate decisions to include wailing diva vocals.
Even is said shrieks are occasionally done with a wry sense of humour, there's still no real need for them in dance music; but Ultraviolence do alright with their blending of strings and other sampled orchestrations into the mix, and the thundering Hardcore Techno version of Black Sabbath's "Paranoid" is worth the entry price alone.
This offers a neat offset to the pessimistic main body of the album with something approaching noisy euphoria, though the bowel-rumbling conclusion of bass churns and vicious sparks soon brings matter back to a final dissolute winding down of what is also the best track on the album.

First there was Maya, fresh from time-serving in a slew of indie bands "I was fed up of not getting very far and my friend said I should stop trying to fake things like copying the boys." Wise words indeed.
With Toni and Gavin aboard, Sohodolls were beginning to establish a reputation as the most thrilling band in whatever town they found themselves in.
Emails came in from the continent and London's most exciting and chaotic band were invited to tour Germany, Austria and Belgium and played shows in Madrid, Barcelona, Paris, Rome, Turin and Oslo.

 Living sacrifice
Their leaving the death metal genre behind is understandable, given their religious beliefs and the nature of the death metal scene to brand any band with different views as pariahs.
Conceived in Fire, the band's sixth album, is a very good metal album full of aggression that also projects a very positive feel and message toward the listener.
Although wrapped tightly in religious allusions, Living Sacrifice never come across as evangelistic, instead they are convincing in their honesty and unpretentiousness; highly unlike the majority of death and fl metal bands still today preaching the words of satan, evil, ultraviolence,and all of that left-hand religious nonsense.

 Splendid E-zine: at a glance reviews - october 5, 1998
Monotract builds a sonorous blend of guitars, bass and keyboards, in which perhaps only more advanced listeners will be able to locate persistent melodies.
Like so many bands that deal in dischord, Monotract supports any number of comparisons to early Sonic Youth, though Monotract lacks that seminal group's regimentation, producing tracks that sprawl and ramble in a fashion most fascinating.
I also wonder if the band spells their name "Vasoline" for personal and creative reasons, or simply to avoid legal action from the makers of Vaseline.

As the title suggests, this only covers the years 1994-2000, but the band sure had a few hits in that period.
Incorporating hardcore-techno, classical elements, and concepts of life, sex and death, the band create a style that is truly their own, which is evident on this 2 CD release.
On top of that, there are two exclusive new tracks: a reworked version of “Electric Chair” and the “Theme From Guts.” The unconventional nature of the band has meant that their music has always appealed to a varied lot.
