TERMINATRYX – “Shadow”
Never ones to follow convention, with Terminatryx entering its 12th year, the new album takes the band into yet another realm (following their self-titled debut album; its full remixed version incl. international & local remixers; the Kopskoot! heavy Afrikaans compilation; and the Terminatryx DVD featuring the classic silent vampire film Nosferatu with a new original soundtrack).
Produced by Terminatryx co-founder Paul Blom and the renowned Theo Crous, the duo wanted to add a new dimension of sonic force, yet not diminish the potential accessibility of the songs.
With lead vocalist Sonja Ruppersberg having an equal hand in writing this album’s songs with Paul, her emotional perspective added a great deal to expanding the scope of the new songs that are filled with energy, passion and a drive to transcend the mundane. With some songs exuding strong Metal roots, others lean more towards Industrial (many a combination of these two), while other Alternative flavours like Gothic and movie soundtrack moods are nore neglected.
