Polyfuse
POLYFUSE is the creative outlet of musician and sound designer Justin McGrath. The spread of music genres under this alias are quite wide and range from the evocative long-form dark ambient piece "One Quiet Moment", to the jagged, broken-glass-to-your-throat analog Acid of the No One Will Come To Save Us and Output releases, to modern Industrial Dance on the new album Speed of Forever.

Over the past three years, Polyfuse has taken the Chicago underground by storm with his expertly-produced take on the modern Industrial genre, meeting somewhere between the frenetic, sharp-edged Acid Techno of yesteryear and the superbly-textured Electronic Rock of modern acts such as NIN. Last year, in between experiments in long-form dark ambient and jagged, minimal analog Acid, the remains of an aborted 2007 debut album were released for free. Now, Polyfuse is preparing for the release of the fully-realized followup, The Speed Of Forever, and serving as an advance warning comes this three-track teaser single with album cuts "Dagger Hero" and "Never Repeat These Words" and exclusive B-side "Floor". With a sonic structure as threatening as the deadliest military hardware (illustrated in the "Dagger Hero" video, below), these compositions give testament to the fact that a repertoire of considerable force is being manufactured within the borders of the Windy City, and the eventual onslaught will change the face of modern electronic music.
