It's the penultimate episode of season 2, so why not dive head first into something super obscure? This week, Savannah has picked Sykotik Sinfoney and their 1993 album "Eargasm"
Sykotik Sinfoney was a metal/experimental band. They were originally formed in 1988 and were signed to Moonstone records. They recorded their only album "Eargasm" in 1993, but the band broke up before the release. The album was eventually independently released in 2008 and any additional music or shows remain a mystery as the band still owns its website domain which has been under construction since 2019.
