Trouble Fait - The Black Isles

2016-08-22 (News)

Trouble Fait is a long existing, but not very productive French project, that looks back on already 2 mini-albums (1998+2004), 1 full length (2010) and one split album (1996). This Cold Wave act has clearly been influenced by a number of 80's legends and their sound tries to bring back the sound of the 80's, so dear to all the members of the band, like Bauhaus, Joy Division, Sisters of Mercy, The Stranglers.
On their brand new album ‘The Black Isles', the 3 remaining members Babeth, JC and Guillaume present 10 rich tracks, mostly sung in English and while on the previous mini-album ‘Sub Lumina Prima' they lacked a bit of unity in their compositions, this album is carefully crafted and very well arranged whole.

Lucifer's Aid - New To Reality

2016-08-19 (News)

Carl Nilsson the man the project presents harsh and direct industrial EBM that brings back memories from early Dive, The Klinik era mixed with harshness from projects like Noisex and early Ant-Zen stuff. It's like a fist punch right in the face. Crushing hard rhythms and beats with hard vocals. This is exactly what the harder scene needed... A fuel injection, something fresh.
Carl Nilsson is no newcomer to the music scene and have several projects like Lithium and The Operating Tracks on his CV-list. But with Lucifer's Aid you can tell he is held by no limits. One of the hardest, straight forward and well needed albums to come from Sweden in years.

Covenant - Sound Mirrors

2016-08-18 (News)

Covenant's new single ‚Sound Mirrors' gives us a first impression of their forthcoming album "The Blinding Dark". For the first time ever, the Swedes address distinctly topical events in world politics: the refugee crisis with its accompanying hysteria and the anxiety about the future of a European continent that looks forward into uncertainty.
'Sound Mirrors' were acoustic mirrors that looked like giant stone ears, placed along the English coast between 1916 and 1930 in order warn of approaching planes or war ships. The reference to the refugee crisis and creeping radicalisation of Europe becomes particularly obvious when hearing Covenant's lyrics for the corresponding song.
Musically, the band does not miss out on anything, delivering a club smasher that harks back to single classics such as ‚Stalker' or ‚Last Dance'. While unusual splashes of colour enhance the overall picture, ‚Sound Mirrors' is bound to become an enduring earworm that will soon set dancefloors aflame.
