Aggressive industrial metal with a high-tech, cyberpunk edge. Polished mechanical riffs and driving synths for high-intensity focus or late-night urban energy.
New Project delivers a high-octane collision of mechanical precision and raw human aggression. Their sound is defined by the heavy, down-tuned chug of mid-2000s metal fused with the cold, rhythmic pulse of industrial electronics. It feels like a soundtrack to a dystopian future, where the line between organic and synthetic has been permanently blurred by distortion and high-gain amplification.
What sets them apart is the 'cyberpunk' polish they bring to the industrial metal template. While many peers lean into lo-fi grime, New Project opts for a sleek, 'ultraviolent' clarity. The production is massive and compressed, ensuring that every synth lead cuts through the wall of guitars like a laser. It is music that demands movement, driven by a relentless forward momentum that feels both calculated and chaotic.
Start with 'Ultraviolent Light' to hear the band at their peak of international production. It captures the transition from their Sydney roots to the London metal scene, offering a definitive look at their ability to blend hook-driven alternative metal with the cold textures of the machine age.
