Psy-bor-um is a combination of the words psyche, cybernetic and sanctum, which meanings altogether translate to; the human mind through use of computers is a sacred place. Psyborum is the prairie’s only industrial metal project, and is based in Regina Saskatchewan Canada. The debut album Simulate-Salvation pulls no punches with it’s melding of driving guitars and blasting industrial beats. Psyborum is the brainchild of singer/songwriter Nate “Hohrd” Cradock.Electronic and rhythmic influences for Psyborum draw from industrial, aggrotech, and Terror EBM acts like Psyclon Nine, Alien Vampires and Suicide Commando, while embracing sampled tremolo guitars and harsh, high shrieked vocal style of black and death metal bands such as Behemoth, Arch Enemy and Dimmu Borgir. Hohrd uses unconventional sound effects and robotic pulses in this unique solo project. Imagine a dark orchestra of machinery playing the soundtrack to our unavoidable future…The Psyborum debut album Simulate-Salvation was recorded at Touchwood Studios in Regina and is a concept album mediating the pressures of this cold technological age, and how they compel us to simulate our salvation, releasing ourselves from the misery of the past.
