Pedigree

Dropping Sonic Bombs since 1993

About Me

"..passion,aggression and pure sonic torment through the spectre of dark emotions and art..." Pedigree recognized as pioneers of industrial music in Baltic States, their self-expression is a molotov coctail of industrial, metal, dub, electronica, darkhop, post-rock, trip-hop... you just name it.. they are known as unique architects of both sonic and visuals. Pedigree always been unpredictable and hard to categorize. Since 1993 they recorded several albums and they are also known as very original crew of remixers and visuals/video artists. Pedigree live performance is colourful mix of experimentation, crushing industrial metal, electronic excess, high power abuse and the show of hallucinogenic visuals, all created by their own. Their music is multi-faced, intense, dark, deep and trippy...in one hand, haunting and molten, in the other, pure furious in-your-face hardhitting industrial dancefloor/moshpit anthemic revolutionary noise attack. In public press, they are often described as best live act from Estonia. "...their show is not a circus, it`s just pure state of art..." Pedigree shared stages with Metallica, Fear Factory, Dälek, Napalm Death, Clawfinger, Plain Fade and many more. Pedigree early influences are probably Throbbing Gristle, Swans, Einstürzende Neubauten, Pink Floyd... these days, they are mostly compared with Godflesh, Scorn, Neurosis, the Young Gods, Ministry and even the Prodigy... Pedigree will endlessly continue to evolve at the edge of creativity, they don`t stop to show the world their own colours, their own ultimate way, the way of PedigreeSonicUnderworld. And it always challenges the listener.

Religion.

Religion is very powerful and dangerous hallucinogen for the weaklings.

Fear is invisible shadow that follows you forever...but you can feel it only when you are afraid or shit scared.
