The Lust and Despair (feat. Dräcos von Strecker) - Cynical Existence

Cynical Existence is the new solo project of Fredrik Croona (Project Rotten, and formerly of Menschdefekt). Started in 2011, Cynical Existence melds “old school” harsh ebm and industrial with more emotional elements. According to Croona, Cynical Existence “doesn’t intend to create something new and unique, just something personal.”

Cynical Existence’s debut EP A Familiar Kind of Pain is due out April 1st on the dark electro label Engraved Ritual- mastered by Stahlblack Productions, the EP contains 8 tracks that span the gamut of electro-industrial: from the stompy ‘Always and Forever’ and ‘Dead Eyes (see no future)’ to the introspective ‘Release Me.’ The album is limited to 100 copies worldwide.
