The band is comprised of 3 core members; female vocalist Snow Lacamia, male vocalist Gutisk, and programmer Jhonny Darko. Sintetico Ministerio in English means Synth Ministry, hence Sintetico is like saying Synthpop in European. You will notice many interesting electronic soundscapes, driving rhythms, and pulsating bass groves layered throughout their music. Enter the sinister vocal tandems of Snow and Gutisk the music gets even more dark and foreboding. The band has developed a huge following in Brazil and is now turning its attention to the US. Their amazing debut CD combines an impressive blend of modern trancelike dance groves, with heavy industrial-esque vibes. Some of the material gives off a goth-like, NIN vibe, while others are reminiscent of classic 80’s techno. Their live performances are explosive, and entertaining. Singles of the CD include "Never Leave" and "Clausura." . Produced by Cyrus Rhodes URL - www.myspace.com/sinteticoministerio
