Lola Angst - Viva La Lola

2009-11-03 (News)

What happened to the good old sound of the early Eighties, when artists like Fad Gadget or Gary Numan understood working with electronics as one giant wild and anarchistic playground? Unfortunately, Fad Gadget is now dead and master Numan is sporting a more dark Industrial sound, these days. Hence, we are in dire need of fresh blood for this kind of music! And who would be better suited to fit the role than Don Goldmann and Sancho Schirner who have been riding against the windmills of the establishment with their orphaned church organ Lola and the most eccentric Electro-Pop-vision of all times for quite some time, now?

Blutengel - Soultaker

2009-11-02 (News)

Red wine, candle light and Blutengel! Is there a better way to spend the cold and dark winter days than in a warm place listening to the gloomy melodic club sounds of the Berlin-based Dark Pop group? Their newest outing "Soultaker" sports an addictive title tune that has all the potential of becoming one of the band’s all-time hits, plus three more catchy new songs, topped off with eight unreleased remixes and alternative versions (including strong reworkings of "Engelsblut" and "Behind The Mirror").

C/A/T - We Are Still Alive

2009-11-01 (News)

C/A/T is back with a vengeance and proves this ever-changing project has not gone anywhere since 2008's "The Great Crisis". From the opening track (a nod to "The Great Crisis") to the somber and unsettling finale - Ben Arp re-establishes C/A/T as a band to keep an attentive eye on. The meat of this EP is a core of 4 songs that feature some of the most structured and melodic sounds ever to appear on a C/A/T release. C/A/T ups the ante with dark, harsh and accusatory vocal work that shadows even the lyrical and vocal content from 2007's "Point Of No Return". Also included is a re-working of the 2007 track "Dead To Me".
