With their fifth album \u201eThe Inevitable Relapse\u201c, their third for Dependent, F\u00efx8:S\u00ebd8 are taking the final step from a band with a huge buzz to an established force within the electro industrial scene. The band\u2018s name is derived from the psychiatric terms \u201efixated\/sedated\u201c.<\/p>\n
\u201eThe Inevitable Relapse\u201c may be taken as a nearly prophetical title as the album has been conceived for the most part during the global pandemic. On a musical level, mastermind Martin Sane stays true to the course, he charted with the successful predecessors \u201eForen6\u201c (2017) and \u201eWarning Signs\u201c (2019). Under the obvious influence of Canadian cult acts such as SKINNY PUPPY and FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY, the Hessian has developed his own inimitable style, which is oscillating between dark electronics and catchy passages. F\u00efx8:S\u00ebd8 have established their own soundscapes by continuously moving away from their musical paragons, which resembles the development of artistic soulmates such as MENTALLO & THE FIXER and HAUJOBB. This becomes evidently clear in the unerring songwriting as well as on production-side, which is nearly equally important in the electronic genre. The upward trend with each new album is also reflected on \u201eThe Inevitable Relapse\u201c, which is made abundantly clear by crushing tracks such as.<\/p>\n
\u201aPrognosis\u2018 and \u201aUnknown to Virtue\u2018 as well as more complex and darker pieces of the \u201aHuman Harvest\u2018 brand. On top of this, PYRROLINE thought leader Arnte has contributed with his keen skills to the production and mix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2434,"template":"","festival":[27,44],"class_list":["post-2433","act","type-act","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","festival-27","festival-2023-en"],"acf":{"website":"https:\/\/fix8sed8-de.bandcamp.com\/","facebook_url":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Fix8Sed8","spotify_url":"","instagram_url":"","tiktok_url":"","date":null,"begin":"","end":"","location":"","amphi_festival_premiere":false},"yoast_head":"\n
