NewType

The alien consciousness that comprise NewType, both manifested in the same concept of reality but at different times, though each found themselves unwilling to conform to the pre-scribed brainwashed complacency that was expected of them. Unable to relate to the multitude of bleating drones around them they spent most of their formative years in social isolation, with only a few precious artifacts of a forgotten sub-culture to sustain them, until eventually they found each other and learnt that they were in fact brothers seperated at birth.

Through the union of their creative and intellectual tastes NewType was created. A vessel for their anxieties, paranoia and ideas. A last desperate attempt, to escape a routine existence as cogs in the consumer-machine of modern life in the so called space age.

It was named after a concept from the Jap anime sci-fi mecha saga MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM to characterise humans with heightened mental awareness, ESP and superhuman abilities as an evolutionary response to being born in space colonies.

They play epic, intelligent manga inspired electro-rock and are:

Aaran - Vochorus, Drive Wires, Drone Coils, Programming & Synthonics.
Craig - Synthonic Polyphony, Machine Programming & Vochorus.
James - Subsonic Doom Coils, Drive Wires.
