Bio Terror Technology – definition summed up, Viktim. Viktim is an industrial band from new jersey. A typical description of this very untypical band is " chaos, violence, rhythmic assault on the senses and the body" or as one astute observer put it, "hearing a viktim song, is like listening to a rape on the radio".
Viktim originally formed in 1996 out of the ashes of countless 'garage bands' from the cornocpia of punk that is southern new jersey. Drawing influences from punk bands such as Black Flag, and Christian Death, melding that anger with the pounding pulse of Public Enemy, NWA and Schooly D, the technology of Ministry, Front Line Assembly, and KMFDM, the darkness of Skinny Puppy and the breakdowns and noise of Unsane, Cop Shoot Cop, and Godflesh, Viktim was born unto us.
A cyberpunk band unlike any to have come before, and none will ever follow, Viktim was formed and performed by true street slime, and scum. The tattooed menances that wander about tbe alleys behind the local liquor store would be a good group to look amongst to find viktim members.
Eddie Threat, singer, programmer, of the current incarnation, originally spit this putrid mess of hatred, shit and filth unto the world as a solo performance artist, until combining his talents with his kin of the South Jersey punk and hardcore scenes.
Following that, a line of talented musicians, have come and left in a deceidly 'spinal tap' sense. There names have been omitted to protect the guilty, but at their permission I would name the array of Drug Addicts, Suicidal Miscreants, Thugs, Punks, and Felons that blessed the stage with us. Viktim was lucky and happy to have the fortune of everyone to ever have performed with us, and are grateful for all the blood they spilt in our service. No one will forget what you did, but just like a whore trying to make a resume of all the cocks she has had in her, its too long a list for us to post you all here.



viktim has
performed countless shows decimating the stages of clubs in new York City, Philadelphia, and New Jersey. If you took talley of the events at a viktim show, it would sound much like the police blotter record of an assault. Drunk and Discorderly conduct, riot, public intoxication, broken jaws, lacerated skin, lynchings, smashed bottles, broken guitars, incinerated equipment, crowd participiation, reputations tarnished, medical bills soaring, attempted suicides, overdoses and a general blacklisting of the band was attempted.



Currently, the band is rehearsing for upcoming live performances, in support of their debut CD on Dark Asylum Music " as love turns Grey"
