Gaining influences from death metal to techno, Prosthetic Orchestra has the primary purpose of bringing the hedonism back into dark music while ridiculing what is currently mainstream by bastardizing it with macabre underground sounds that seem to be avoided like the plague. The approach is only governed from the psychological perspective--real or synthetic holds no significance anymore from this result.
P.O has been around since March of 2001. It came to be when I wanted to write and record music without concern for the cababilities of other musicians or how to do them live. By the summer was through, the debut album Functionless Torture Art was recorded but wasn't released until August 2002.
In July 2004, a mini-cd titled A Dream of Fire was released to show the progression of the writing and recording ability.
The latest release Atrocities is released late 2006 after many delays and snags. Its sole purpose was to challenge the listener's tolerance to other subgenres. Expressing Cefer's utter contempt for the narrow-minded, doing exactly what Prosthetic Orchestra's sound was atrocious for.
This is for the time being, a studio project. Maybe in the future it will become a live band, but it's a question of finding competant musicians that want to play somebody else's songs.
