[edit] Overview

Due to their aesthetic approach and past member associations, Puissance are often associated with black metal. However, Puissance do not make any use of guitars and make use of electronic instrumentation such as synthesizers and samplers, resulting in a militant approach somewhere between influences of industrial music and bombastic neoclassical music. Later albums display more of an emphasis rhythm and a more pop music-based approach.

Nuclear holocaust and misanthropy are commonly explored themes. Lyrics are sung in English although they made some Swedish songs in the beginning of their career on their demotapes.


Puissance is also related to the much more militant and war-influenced band Arditi.
