Brighter Death Now is the brainchild of Roger Karmanik, founder of the influential Swedish label Cold Meat Industry and a key figure within the darker realms of industrial and power electronics music. Formed in 1989, Brighter Death Now has been Karmanik’s primary outlet for exploring themes of decay, depravity, and the darkest corners of the human psyche. The project's sound is characterized by its abrasive textures, unsettling atmospheres, and a penchant for incorporating disturbing samples and visceral, often nihilistic lyrics.

Throughout its career, Brighter Death Now has amassed a sizeable discography that delves into the macabre and confronts listeners with an unflinching gaze into despair and morbidity. With releases like "All Too Bad - Bad to All" and "With Promises of Death," the project has solidified its reputation for being unapologetically harsh and relentless. Albums such as "Very Little Fun" and "Kamikaze Kabaret" blend noise, experimental soundscapes, and dark ambient elements, painting bleak and introspective auditory canvases. The thematic continuity of mortality and futility is woven into each work, including "Obsessis" and "May All Be Dead," cementing Brighter Death Now's status as a critical voice in the genre and leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of extreme electronic music.
