PreEmptive Strike 0.1 was created in 2002 in Agios Nicolaos on the island of Crete in Greece by Jim 'The Blaster' and Cryon. Having worked together before on electronic projects, they decided to form a band making the kind of music they enjoyed, combining the harsh Dark Electro/EBM sound with powerful melodies, eastern elements and sci-fi themes. 2005 was a landmark year for the band. The inclusion in the 'Endzeit Bunkertracks:Act I' compilation by Alfa Matrix with the track 'Lethal Defense Systems', fortified the band. It also marks the beginning of the bands cooperation with producer Dimitris Ntouvras at Lunatech Sounds Studios. The start of 2006 saw the debut release by PreEmptive Strike 0.1 entitled Lethal Defense Systems- produced by Dimitris N. and mastered by Vasi Vallis (ex-NamNamBulu, Reaper, Frozen Plasma). Additionally, the band appeared on various compilations and continued to work on new material and remixes.Unfortunately, PES 0.1 was forced to remain inactive for most of 2006, due to military obligations. Once military duties were fulfilled, 2007 saw the band back and fully operational Now, the wait is over. PES 0.1 unleashed the second wave of attack with the highly acclaimed album Extinction Reprogrammed on Infacted Recordings / COP International. Now, PreEmptive Strike 0.1 joins Metropolis Records for the release of The Kosmokrator. Dark, aggressive melodies, harsh vocals, and an intriguingly original blend of influences make this album a compelling addition to any electro fan’s collection.
