12 Below

Genre-busting art rock project “12 Below” is the brainchild of German-American producer, composer, multi-instrumentalist and lyricist To’Be (pronounced “Tobi”). 12 Below’s albums pivot undogmatically between prog rock and prog metal, dark ambient electronic soundscapes and even contemporary classic and modern film music. 12 Below experiment with unusual time signatures and neo-psychedelic elements, can be challenging, noisy and discordant, but do not shy away from motifs that are melodious and beautiful. While listeners and critics have spotted influences ranging from David Bowie and Brian Eno over Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails to Aha and Simple Minds, 12 Below are forging a dark electronic art rock sound that has become uniquely their own.
