“Save your face as long as you’re on time, and shake your ass, because there’s no future if you don’t dance…”

Nothing will ever be the same, The Cyborgs are coming!
 
The second production by INRI, the brand new independet record label based in Turin, Italy, is a two man band that comes from the future and plays a primordial blues/funk, bonded to the roots but so groundbreaking that human beings will understand it just in twenty years!


In a time where image reigns, two perfect strangers decided to remain anonymous wearing a welder’s mask. They have no identity. Like the most brilliant software, they consist of a 0 and a 1. 0 plays the guitars and sings through a microphone in his mask. 1 plays synth sounds with his left hand and drums with the remaining limbs of his body. Together they produce some thrusting and pumping blues. They preach a return to the simplicity of the past instead of the destructive future we are heading towards. Their music is the same: simple but effective. You can make it with just two men, although you have to posses the talent of these Cyborgs. It is impossible to resist this electrofunkblues, resistance is futile.

They come from the future and nobody has ever seen their faces.
Their mission is to reclaim the lost traces of the eternal blues sounds…

ZERO and ONE.
The beginning and the end.
Two Cyborgs, One Band, Blues…
CYBORG-0 electric guitar and voice
CYBORG-1 all the rest (synth, piano, drums, percussions)

THE CYBORGS are a power duo that surprises and represents a real “case” in the whole italian music scene. It would be hard to find a band with the same skills, passion, fun, energy, irony.
THE CYBORGS are instinctive, visceral, excessive, restless, deep, in one word explosive. Their first official album “The Cyborgs” contains 12 original songs: blues from the roots with a modern funk attitude.
It’s useless to try and further describe them: you just have to listen to their music and dance to the rhythm of the Cyborgs boogie!

BIO
Already known for their original live performances in almost all the major blues festivals in Rome and Italy, The Cyborgs have published their first self-titled album with the label INRI. It took a very little time to be noticed by Barley Arts, that chose them to play as opening act of the Italian concert of Jeff Beck last July. Summer brought them in many other Italian cities and at Italy Wave Love Festival in Lecce, where they soon attracted the curiosity of XL / Puglia Sounds and Rai Music. In September, their first video “Dancy” was released with an exclusive premiere on Wired.it; their European tour starter immediately after the concerts supporting Eric Sardinas, which led The Cyborgs to capture an adult and passionale audience and attract more and more interest by the media: MTV  selected them as New Generation artist of the week and the band got many positive feedback from fans and experts. Next step: EUROSONIC 2012.
