Background notes
Archive material and source history
Tribal Chair formed in 2006 as a duo of Cevin Key and Mark Pistel. Key came from Skinny Puppy, bringing that industrial background to the project, while Pistel handled guitar and programming. Their debut album '909' came out in 2007, with the title track becoming a club staple thanks to its distorted bassline and hypnotic rhythm.
They followed up with albums like 'The Killing Sun' in 2009 and 'Desolate Heaven' in 2012. Their sound mixed electronic beats with punk elements, and songs like 'Moment' and 'The Dawn Of Infinity' showed their range from dance tracks to more atmospheric pieces. Key's lyrics often dealt with dark themes that some listeners found challenging.
Their visual style and subject matter drew criticism at times, but they generally stuck to their approach without much public backtracking. The music wasn't trying to be universally accessible, it had a specific, sometimes confrontational edge that defined their work during those years.
