Neon Synthesis is an Italian industrial rock band from Brescia. According to their MySpace, their influences are huge, coming from industrial metal, gothic metal, Electronic body music, techno, and darkwave. Their style is characterized by a hammering rhythmic section, compact and essential guitars, large use of synthesizers and a powerful and versatile voice. This project was officially born in april 2004, when the members of the band joined forces to create something dynamic, something new. The name of the band doesn't have a specific meaning, it only wants to suggest the idea of something cold, synthetic and artificial. In 2005 a Depeche Mode song (Everything Counts) covered by the band was selected to appear on the first Italian tribute cd to the English band. On april 27, 2006 they released a self-produced album entitled Our Empty Rooms, which contains 10 songs. Our Empty Rooms includes the re-recordings of their first three promo tracks and seven brand new songs. It mixes industrial metal with synthpop, darkwave with ebm beats and atmospheric keyboards. The lyrics are influenced by the poetry of Thomas Stearns Eliot.
