Amduscia is an aggrotech band from Mexico consisting of Polo Acevedo (vocals, lyrics, sampling), Raul Montelongo, and Adrian Ruiz.

Amduscia was founded in 1999 in Mexico City. However in March 2010, Edgar Acevedo died due to medical complications associated with leukemia.

The group's name is derived from demon Amdusias in medieval demonology.

Their music has been described as aggrotech and they have cited influences from "dark ethereal, dark wave, cyberpunk, old ebm school [sic], to newer style such as synthpop and future pop."

They have been compared to Hocico and Cenobita on their early releases, but by fusing the darker style with contemporary Trance music approach led them to a style of their own and to gather a growing fanbase in Mexico and Europe, mostly in Germany, appearing at festivals such as Wave-Gotik-Treffen, M'era Luna Festival and a shared European tour with Combichrist

In Summer 2009 Amduscia had turned into a two-person project [1] due to professional differences with Raul Montelongo leaving to fully concentrate on his until then side-project LuciferChrist On March 27, 2010 it was announced that Edgar “Amduscia“ Acevedo had died due to medical complications derived from leukemia [2] with the only remaining member being Polo. Polo has decided to continue the band in legacy of Edgar.
