Brendin Ross (ex-BILE, ex-INVA\/\/ID, Dawn of Ashes, and Bornless Fire), the band\u2019s founding member and instrumental powerhouse behind FRONTAL BOUNDARY is indeed joined by Krz Souls (ex-INVA\/\/ID, Dawn of Ashes, Bornless Fire) on vocals and Jaysen Craves (Livernois) on synths.<br>Melding fire and ice, chaos and control, FRONTAL BOUNDARY\u2019s signature sound fuses dense industrial rhythms, driving EBM beats, dark melodic leads, and infectious synthpop textures \u2013 topped with harsh, emotional vocals that sometimes veer into future pop territory. Fans of SUICIDE COMMANDO, C-LEKKTOR, COMBICHRIST, LEAETHER STRIP and ROTERSAND will feel right at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cHate\u201d EP also includes club-destroying remixes by American industrial force FACT PATTERN and cult Alfa Matrix label-mate UNTER NULL, adding new layers of intensity to an already volatile release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHate\u201d is not just a song \u2013 it\u2019s a statement. Welcome to FRONTAL BOUNDARY.

Fusing Aggrotech, synth-pop, and intense emotional expression, the project reflects Brendin\u2019s personal journey through turmoil and healing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a brief hiatus, FRONTAL BOUNDARY reemerged with the demo Never Ending in 2008 and the debut track \u201cMindfuck\u201d in 2009. The 2012 full-length album \u201cElectronic Warfare\u201d marked a major milestone, garnering attention within the Industrial\/EBM scene and praise from artists like Die Sektor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following a 2013 re-release (\u201cElectronic Warfare V.2\u201d) and tours with acts such as God Module and Suicide Commando, the project evolved further. A pivotal moment came in 2019 with the addition of vocalist Krz Souls (Dawn of Ashes, Bornless Fire) culminating in the 2021 album \u201cThe Fall\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2023, FRONTAL BOUNDARY signed to Re:mission Entertainment, brought on synth player Jaysen Craves (Livernois) and released a trio of singles ahead of the \u201cShutting Down\u201d album (September 2024).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By 2025, the momentum continued with a signing to Alfa Matrix records, the release of the Hollow EP featuring Unter Null, and plans for a fifth full-length album in winter 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brace yourself for a full-frontal sonic assault as FRONTAL BOUNDARY unleash \u201cHate\u201d, the explosive new EP that marks the band\u2019s first strike from their upcoming full-length album \u201cFailure\u201d \u2013 and also celebrates their signing to leading electro-industrial label Alfa Matrix, home to genre-defining acts like FRONT 242, UNTER NULL, POUPPEE FABRIKK, ALIEN VAMPIRES or yet&hellip;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/?p=14548\" rel=\"bookmark\">Read More &raquo;<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">FRONTAL BOUNDARY signs to ALFA MATRIX and releases &#8220;Hate&#8221; EP<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14549,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14548","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14548","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14548"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14548\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14550,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14548\/revisions\/14550"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/14549"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14548"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14548"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mkultramagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14548"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
