Artist description Aesthetic hedonism. Sadistic excess. Slaves to emotion. Emotional integration. Manifest Vision is a departure from the normal sound of industrial music. In an age of music that respects no boundaries and crossover is the standard, Manifest Vision enter a realm of aesthetic indulgence that makes the harshest of machine-like industrial techno listenable and interesting.

Artist History 1989-Current: Manifest Vision are sons of the 1980’s new wave and goth movement, with influences including The Cure, Bauhaus, The Smiths, Joy Division, New Order, and Depeche Mode. Also neophytes of industrial and techno, credit is given to contemporary artists Nine Inch Nails, Lords of Acid, KMFDM, Orbital, Skinny Puppy, and Ministry, all of whom helped shape the current state of aggressive electronica. The resultant sound is a clever mixing of these influences, one that embraces emotion and avoids repetition and bland techno cliches.
