BIO:
COGNOS is music and a concept, born from the thirst of creating uneven mixes and sensations rarely found today. A project from no specific country with a line up we prefer to remain unknown.

COGNOS links extreme styles with atmospheric ambience, trying to find the balancing point where Gojira meets Vangelis, Peter Gabriel embraces Coroner or even where Enya converses with Opeth.

With a possible loose resemblance to Devin Townsend, COGNOS pursues to represent the atmosphere and the overwhelming sensation one experiences just before contemplating something that surpasses our very own cognition. A bewildering presence that inexplicably embraces us to travel.

We could say that it is a tribute to the agnostic awe we all feel on a spiritual level, avoiding any implication of the human race and its mundanity. The anonymity of this project complements the concept of the album. It encourages us to set aside prejudices and simply listen. If it manages, even for a split second, to transport you away from where you are, COGNOS will have delivered.

Tearing apart what’s human is our privilege. And the result is beautiful.
