Ambrosian chant (also known as Milanese chant) is the liturgical plainchant repertory of the Ambrosian rite of the Roman Catholic Church, related to but distinct from Gregorian chant. It is primarily associated with the Archdiocese of Milan, and named after St. Ambrose much as Gregorian chant is named after Gregory the Great. It is the only surviving plainchant tradition besides the Gregorian to maintain the official sanction of the Roman Catholic Church.

This trio of Dutch origin -Nonnie, Nous'che and Stochelo-, consisting of two guitars (lead and rhythm) and a bass, has emerged as the most significant of the world of what has been called the 'gipsy jazz 'or' jazz manouche'. His influence was always marked by guitarist Django Reinhart, precursor of the style in the 30's. The album presented here is one of the milestones achieved in the "gypsy swing' music.

Despite being from Japan, Corrupted sing mainly in Spanish. They also have songs in English, German and Japanese. The band policy is not to do interviews (they never had done any in the past) and do not let professional photographers take their pictures. There aren't any promo pics of Corrupted, but a few shots from fans at concerts do exist.
