Press Release I have rarely felt this proud and excited when presenting a new release. The original songs will cause the listener to recall earlier efforts like Renitent from "Safe From Harm", while showcasing a new growth and depth to the sound. Unafraid is about the one fundamental emotion of fear, and its byproducts taking over many parts of the globe. The message is to remain unyielding, to be what you want to be and not to let forces come falling like shadows over your path.

Press Release With album releases such as „Safe from Harm“ or „Misanthropy“, Johan Hanson was able to establish himself in the futurepop/electropop world. The sweden based musician combines catchy melodies with his remarkable voice creating songs full of emotion and depth! „Torching Utopia“ makes one of Johans personal dreams come true to get Reagan Jones (of US band „Iris“) as guest vocalist for his song „Frightful“. Three new songs and five remixes are the content of this great new limited e.p. release. The CD is limited to only 333 hand numbered copies worldwide! Besides the title song „Torching Utopia“ you find the above mentioned song „Frightful“ as well as great remixes by „Kant Kino“ and „Electrovot“ and another unreleased song entitled „Dystopia“.
Press Release Dark and romantic. Tearing at the seams of convention. Where logic meets emotion, there is struggle is the best description you can find for the second studio album by Unitary entitled 'Misantrophy'. Every track name represents a different word for Misanthropy, and the flaws which all humans possess. 'Misanthropy' is a towering achievement of sheer musical power and lyrical subtlety. Floating electropop with an edge! "This album is more layered, and more straight forward, than previous efforts. 'I have tried to get more of a live feeling to it, especially with the vocals. I'm sure people will find many elements that are typical for Unitary. But there is a whole new range of new musical ideas. Lyrically though, I'm still the same old me. Nothing has changed there, haha!" says Johan Hansson aka Unitary about his fullength 'Misantrophy'.
Press Release Unitary is the brainchild of Johan Hansson coming all the way from Uppsala/sweden. Unitary is a narrative composed of order and disorder, longing with endurance and the dreams of imaginary bliss in an age of conformity. After bands such as Covenant, Cat Rapes Dog or recently Necro Facility sweden once more proofs that it´s the leading country for innovative alternative electronic pop music! After a first compilation appearance on 'Infacted Compilation 1' and the vocal guest appearance for Frozen Plasma on the song 'Ebb and Flow' Unitary present their first official studio album under the seal 'Safe From Harm'! A sound mixture in between early Covenant and modern influences of bans such as Assemblage 23, Frozen Plasma or Diorama. Twelve masterpieces on one album far away from todays uninspired electro hear-a-likes! Innovative electronic pop music with an edge!
