Cyanotic (band)

Cyanotic is a Chicago-based industrial rock collective fronted by Sean Payne that formed in 2002 and released its first full-length album in 2005. Cyanotic is known for its genre-blending work, which fuses traditional industrial beats and vocals with drum n bass, sampling and heavy metal to create a very hard sound. The band's lyrics contain many tongue-in-cheek references to transhumanism.
