TE/DIS Impending Divulgence CD

Startled out of a nightmare, words and melodies echo – emissaries of the Tempted Dissident. Minimalist analogue electronics and haunting vocal lines emerge from the darkness and get caught in the folds of the brain. That’s how you might feel after listening to the fourth album by Te/DIS. The clarity of the electronics and vocals does not fail to make an impact. With this release, Te/DIS continues the sonic path laid out by the previous albums, shaping a body of work whose internal coherence is as rare as it is compelling. Te/DIS values the pure essence of synthesizer sound, eschewing grand effects – this extends to the vocals. The lyrics are tightly constructed, sketching out a multitude of dystopian scenarios. The music of Te/DIS remains true to itself, unwavering yet never static. The Tempted Dissident has created a finely tuned system – one in which the direction was set from the very first tone: precise, unmistakable, and entirely its own.
