Purity Control is the brainchild of Otis Haket. It blends warm atmospheres with harsh industrial noise, psychedelic effects, and grinding synthesizers. Thematically cyberpunk, it expresses thoughts of aggression, despair and cynicism, with an ever-evolving live performance that leaves you feeling uneasy.
