Formed in early 1999, Cyanotic hit the ground running in the Vancouver music scene and hasn't looked back. The sound is best described as a balance of the beautiful with the brutal, the melodic with the dirge. A reviewer recently described the music like this: "this wonderful bit of twisted sickness rammed its way through my speakers, full force. No time to ease into things, they jump straight into it, and never ever stop." Cyanotic believes in the value of a strong song over a good gimmick, an energetic and tight live show over makeup and masks, and integrity and honesty over packaged aggression. Opening for such acts as Disturbed, Mudvayne, Nothingface, Endo, and Strapping Young Lad within months of inception, Cyanotic has gained notoriety quickly and is poised for the next level. Currently, Cyanotic promoting their first full length CD, Tragedy Time= Comedy, released in early 2003. The band currently handles its own production, engineering, mixing, mastering, booking, merchandise, promotion, and website. A west coast tour is being planned to coincide with the release of Tragedy Time= Comedy in 2003. Cyanotic music has appeared in two extreme sports videos and is being spun religiously by local big market and college radio stations and several Internet radio stations around North America. The video for the band's first single "Waiting for a Martyr" will be going into rotation on Muchmusic in Canada with subsequent rleases planned for MuchmusicUSA, MTV2 and MTV Canada. Check it out...
