Bisclaveret - Theu Anagnosis

2014-05-09 (News)

BISCLAVERET returns with a new album entitled "Theu Anagnosis". It is a concept album, similarly to the previous 2 albums. In 8 compositions here the musicians captured a mystical-philosophical treatise of sorts. The first part of it, namely "An Introduction to Reading God", was presented on 7" vinyl split with Feine Trinkers bei Pinkels Daheim. By means of lyrics and music the duo creates apparently surreal own world of sounds devoid of "here and now." They propose their own vision of the Absolute which is seen through the eyes of mystics, madmen and free thinkers. The band invites us on a psychedelic wandering into the depth of ego, on a metaphysical adventure in the world of music painted with various colours, shapes and stories. Dreams of a madman? Calls of a scholar? Experience of a hermit? It all melts in a lava of many cultures. Yet here it creates a crystal, but heterogenic image. What is it like? Check it yourselves.

The album is co-released by Steinklang Industries & Zoharum. 

It is presented in 3 limited formats: 
white cover CD (111 copies), 
black cover CD (222 copies) 
gold cover LP (111 copies).
Release date CD: 24.05.2014 
Release date LP: 24.06.2014

Click Click - Those Nervous Surgeons

2014-05-08 (News)

Finally now, British EBM pioneers Click Click are going to release "Those Nervous Surgeons", their first album with new studio material in 17 years! In addition to that, mastermind Adrian Smith obviously had the time to finish his debut novel "The Eradication Of Hate", which will come with the limited edition (limited to 300 copies!). It mirrors the dystopian themes of the new record and addresses rampant censorship in an emerging English surveillance state. However, the record title "Those Nervous Surgeons" used to be the name of the brothers’ very first band project before they opted for the monicker Click Click. "We Have Come Full Circle", explains Derek Smith, and it is true: With respect to its instrumentation, the album sounds absolutely retro and harks back to the uniquely gloomy atmosphere as heard on old Click Click albums.

Release date is June 6th in Europe and four days later in the US.

Marie Davidson - Perte d'identité

2014-05-02 (News)

Perte d'identité, which translates to "loss of identity," is the debut LP by composer, singer and poet Marie Davidson, one of the finest artists rising from the electronic dark-synth scene in Montreal. Her voice is a stark half-spoken monotone which will tell you stories from which you can’t escape unchanged.
