„Memento“ rocks the dance floor. “Memento” is heavy duty. You will not get “Memento” out of your head again. “Memento” is different. On its second album, the Hamburg-based trio UnterArt does not give too much on clichés, conventions or being easily categorized. “Memento” is a club-compatible chameleon – a versatile and dark inferno, somewhere between Hard Electro, Industrial and raw, dark Synth Pop. Hard beat-stompers and aggressive shouts alternate with atmospheric sounds and catchy melodies. Chris Harms again proves that he is one of the most versatile singers in the Electro scene today, mastering screaming shouts and roaring grunts just as easily as sonorous clean vocals with emotional depth.

The musical side is just as diverse, with Grigory Feil and Thomas Stein effortlessly welding together such diverse elements as Industrial noise, Hardfloor beats, Synth Pop and EBM to a monumental electronic sound. “Memento” is an album of contrasting emotions, of aggressive club smashers and a hit-laden, dark Pop feast at the same time - an album that will appeal to Industrial-Freaks, Electroheads and Synth Poppers alike. You don't believe us? Open your mind and wait until you've heard “Memento!” Industrial Pop? Melodic Hardfloor? Industrial for the Masses? Those categorizations are a thing of the past … UnterArt is now! See them touring live with HOCICO from this march!!!
