Grime seems to be undergoing a worldwide renaissance. After ten years in the business, Manchester crew Virus Syndicate have transcended their grime roots and influenced the worlds of electronic music and hip-hop like no other UK act; infiltrating every genre with witty, gritty urban clarity, no corner of the industry is safe from their boundary bashing lyrical lashings. Combining electro, drum and bass, house, trap, bass and more their collaborative conjurations resonate with all, while standing well and truly on their own.
Fluidly moving from upbeat comedic numbers like "Gimme The Mic" to raw turmoil on "Chaos & Commotion," the Symptomatic LP finds the group exploring sensitive subject matter like never before. Just to illustrate how real the group are keeping it this time around, lead music video "Psychopath," a fictional role playing inside the mind of someone mentally unstable, turned out to be so disturbing that the video was banned in Virus' largest market of France.
