Haunted Plasma is 'man meets machine' in a cybernetic wasteland, set to a conceptual backdrop of William Gibson and Phillip K. Dick style mind-melt. The highly evolved creatives at the heart of Haunted Plasma's sound, cite Terry Riley, Massive Attack, a contemporary take on Krautrock hypnosis, psychedelic Black Metal and 90s Techno, resulting in an orgy of mutant sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe phantoms at the beating nucleus of this unearthly machine are Juho Vanhanen (Oranssi Pazuzu, Grave Pleasures), Timo Kaukolampi (K-X-P, Op:l Bastards) and Tomi Lepp?nen (Circle, Aavikko, K-X-P), transmitting a music form evolved from a life of redefining sonic boundaries in their respective projects. Also featuring guest vocals from Mat McNerney (Hexvessel, Carpenter Brut, Grave Pleasures\/Beastmilk), Pauliina Lindell (Vuono, Dust Mountain) and Ringa Manner (Ruusut, The Hearing). Haunted Plasma promises an extraterrestrial experience from some of the foremost contemporary musicians at the heart of the Finnish heavy and avant-garde musical underworld.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHaunted Plasma reveals:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'We are liberated futurists, embracing free-form and natural composition, mirroring the merciless forces of cosmic creation. We have a motto to stay true to our feelings, to spawn a sound that's never been heard before. Servants of music. Energizing, radical and pure'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first single from Haunted Plasma's cascading debut, Reverse Engineer, is a creepy, slowly erupting, synthetic nightmare, of a downloaded being waking up in the wrong future.  Ghostly vocals demand the listener to 'give us what we want' in an Orwellian glimpse into the current dystopia we live in, where information is controlled, and thoughts are bought and sold. As McNerney intones the words 'technology of power' he describes the threat of a malevolent and omnipresent artificial intelligence, as much as describing the oppressive and electromagnetic sonar pulse of Haunted Plasma's sound itself. Psychedelic guitar hypnosis from Vanhanen snakes around Kaukolampi's molten and morphing synths, while Lepp?nen's uncanny man\/machine rhythms pull our strings and animate their other-worldly mechanisms.
