The sound
The musical character
Iconocaust is the industrial-noise project spearheaded by Italian artist Loris Cericola, also known for his work under Placenta. Rooted in a raw fusion of industrial, hardcore, metal, and noise, Iconocaust pushes existential and occult themes through a confrontational sound palette. The project continues Cericola's exploration of post-human evolution and anti-institutional critique, building on the lineage from Vacuum Templi and expanding into darker, more abrasive sonic territory.
