‘Born into the Waves' is the thirteenth studio album from the infl­uential cult British band! Inspired by the band's recent concerts in previously unvisited countries - Ukraine, Romania, Lithuania and Japan – ‘Born Into the Waves' evolves from four pieces composed by guitarist Justin Jones on the theme of love songs from around the world.

In Strict Confidence - Somebody Else's Dream

2016-03-17 (News)

Once again, In Strict Confidence kept their fans waiting for a sign of life. They were able to bridge the time gap with a DVD and some re-releases, but now the wait is gone and In Strict Confidence also announce 2 new EPs in the coming weeks, setting the scene for the album release this summer. The EP (over 44 minutes!) is a very emotional track called "Somebody Else's Dream", while the second one promises to be an electronic club hit. Next to remixes by Rhys Fulber (Front Line Assembly, Paradise Lost, Fear Factory) and Dirk Krause (Armageddon Dildos, Retro Adapter), a non-album track as well as a previously unreleased version of In Strict Confidence's cult song "Seven Lives" are included. In addition to the music, visuals always played an important part for In Strict Confidence. Consequently, this time the artwork was done by Heilemania. Moreover, the band shines again with an exceptional video clip, also available in the data section of the CD. The CD will be released as a limited edition digipak.

Venal Flesh - Worshiping At The Altar Of Artifice

2016-03-17 (News)

Dan Barrett (Worms Of The Earth) and DJ/model VanityKills together craft music for people looking for an evolution of the heaviness of classic terror EBM, enhanced with complex structures and deep themes. Their debut full length album "Worshiping At The Altar Of Artifice" will not deceive you. Musically, Venal Flesh strive to further what we could describe as the "classic" dark elektro. While focusing on hammering dark terror EBM sequences, the duo also manages to insufflate a dense, heavy and somewhat melancholic atmosphere in their work which somehow shapes and characterizes the Venal Flesh trademark sound. Their heavy crunchy beats and distorted vocals battle against unsettling haunting ambiance and complex multi-layered melodies, the whole reinforced by the mastering skills of label-mate studio guru Sebastian R. Komor.
