Finnish industrial band Cardinal Noire has just released their new single, “Diatribe”, through Artoffact Records, as a preview of their upcoming album “Vitriol”, set to be released on December 6. The single showcases the band’s signature blend of aggressive electronic beats, distorted synths, and dark atmospheres.

Following their previous single “Killshelter” released in August, “Diatribe” digs deeper into a sound that pulls inspiration from industrial pioneers like Skinny Puppy, Front Line Assembly, and Nitzer Ebb.

Cardinal Noire, formed in the early 2010s by Kalle Linberg and Lasse Alander, launched their self-titled debut in 2015, followed by “Deluge” (2018).

You can pre-order the album right now on Bamdcamp.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
