***** OUR HOT PICKS FOR THE WEEK
:)
DIE FORM "NOIR MAGNETIQUE
-
LIMITED"
One of the most
prolific and unique musical projects in the electronic music scene returns with
a long-awaited new long-playing album that marks one of the strongest works Die
Form has ever created. Elaborately combining mesmerizing and disturbing photo
art, experimental sound scapes, classical influences, heavenly voices and a
rather healthy dose of relentless club sounds, Philippe Fichot and Éliane P.
weave a sonic web on “Noir Magnétique” that is nothing short of enthralling. It
is seldom that music works in both a club context and as a work of art. Die Form
have achieved just that… while “Noir Magnétique” is one of the group’s most
accessible and dance floor compatible releases, ever, easily matching their most
successful club hits, it still sports an absolutely unique sound and artistic
vision. The album expertly continues the path Die Form took with last year’s
smashing single “Her(t)z Frequenz” (which is also featured on the album in
a dazzling new mix)
with strong beats, enticing melodies, cold sounds and a
constant tug-o-war between harsh emotional coolness and pure, innocent
beauty. “Noir Magnétique” will be released as a regular CD version and a
lavish collector’s set, limited to 999
copies,
and containing the album plus the special exclusive 7” single “Kobol”
and
a deluxe large-size booklet with the album photo art in an elaborate 7”-sized
box. “Noir Magnétique” is not only driving Die Form’s unique sound to
perfection – it is also an instant
classic that shows the French Art Electro
project at its very best. Electronic Club Sounds as an
art form! Released on Out Of
Line

SPELL INSIDE "LOGINSIDE"

release Loginside. More than nine months they concentrated on producing

masterpiece, surprising the listener with each track - wheather if
emotional ballad or dancefloor
club song. Loginside brings together pumping beats, perfectly programmed electronics
and catchy vocal hooks that will get stuck in your
head. Once you hear it you?ll want to listen to it over and

THE
COLD
"LAST EMBRACE"
The Cold became acquainted to a wider audience through numerous
support gigs for international bands like Faith & the Muse, The
Mission, Pink Turns Blue, Diva Destruction, Cruexshadows, Sex Gang Children, Cinema Strange
and a few festival performances at the Wave-Gotik-Treffen, M'era
Luna, Cry for Happiness and Herbstnächte. From a very early start
The Cold were supported by a great number of Scene DJ's and fans.
Especially the coorporation with the concert agency “Motherdance” provided The Cold with large
opportunities. Their album “After All” was published in 2004 under the label Sonorium that in fact made
it into the German Alternative Charts for five weeks. For their début album
The Cold collaborated with Monica Richards and William Faith (Faith &
the Muse) for the song “Summernight” and the legendary Andi Sexgang (Sex
Gang Children) for the song “World came Down”. The song “Summernight” became
a floor filler in no-time. After a long tour through France, Holland, Belgium and
Lithuania in 2008, The Cold started working on their second album.
The Cold signed a record deal with the prestigious independent
label Dark Dimensions in
2009. The new album with the title “Last Embrace” will be released for the
first time at the Gothic Pogo Festival on the fly with the Wave-Gotik-Treffen in
May 2009. (Unless we are facing Armageddon). The Cold consequently continues with
their musical enthusiasm with “Last Embrace”. Wave, Pop, Post Rock compose into a blend
that can not be found often, nowadays. Melancholia and Anger, dance
ability and
gloom lie close together in
the new The Cold Album. Released on Alice In...and available May 29th,
2009.

SCARY BITCHES "THE
ISLAND
OF
THE DAMNED"
It has been over four years since the Scary Bitches
released their last album “Creepy Crawlies.” Since that time they have been
playing all over Europe,including St.Petersburgh Russia, WGT Leipzig and too may
other German gigs to mention, several bookings in Italy, Berne in Switzerland,
Paris, Waregem in Belgium, Rotterdam, Vilnius Lithuania, Warsaw in Poland and
two appearances at both the Carival of Souls and Gotham in the UK. This year
marks a return by popular demand to both WGT Leipzig and Waregem. Their gig list
for this year also extends as far as Mexico. 2009 marks the tenth anniversary of
the formation of the band, and they also intend to play some bookings at
several smaller venues in the UK to return to their roots. Their very first
recordings were only home
recording quality, and have never been officially
released, so following numerous requests to hear some of this material, the band
have re-recorded four tracks to include on
this album. Some of their songs might make you laugh, but they insist that
they are not a comedy band. They just write about the weird
and unpleasant side of life and death. People like to categorise music, and as
such they have been called Goth, Deathrock, Batcave, and Post Punk.
They just
call themselves “the Scary Bitches.”

CENTHRON
"ROTER STERN"
„We are Centhron, raise your fist!“ „Centhron = hammers
directly into the brain! Concentrated EBM-Industrial-Power!“ quoted by e-lectric
and Radio Dunkelschall Centhron was created in Winter 2001. It started with an
electronic intimacy between Elmar Schmidt (Voice + Synth + Programming) and Jörg
Herrmann (Progamming) which resulted into the first Demo "Melek Taus" in 2002.
as Centhron did not want to arrive without a recording medium being the support
act on a feindflug concert. As this demo became rather successful Centhron
decided to record a complete album to give it a try in the market. The album
„Lichtsucher“ (2003) exeeded all expectations! DAC Dj Bullet Nr.1, fairly
represented in the DUC Charts, Zillo Sampler and several requests and
congratulations from all over Europe. And all this even without a label! Gigs in
Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Belgium and Italien have been rocked together
with Suicide Commando, SITD, Kiew, Xotox, Agonoize, Reaper, Psyclon Nine,
Grendel, Soman and many more. Every time the live perfomance has been improved
which resulted in positive feedbacks up to waves of exitement. The live members
Melly Thies (Female Voice), Stefan Thies (Bass) and nette Schmidt (Live
Synth) have been part of this "Centhron family" from the very start next
to leader Elmar Schmidt and sound engineer Jörg
Herrmann. Encouraged as this Centhron started to create the second album „Gottwerk“ (2006), a
first-class electro-firework. This time supported by the label "Final Dusk". As
well as "Lichtsucher" this album was rather successful, this time
even up to the
USA. Unfortunately there has not been a distributor, but the request from several DJ´s
have been frequently. As a result Centhron has sent the disks to USA on
it´s own initiative. After three years of waiting it is now finally
finished: the new album "Roter Stern" will be published with Scanner (Dark Dimensions). Mixed
by Jan L. (Noisuf X), Cover Art as always by Claudi
Corsten, yet
another "Gottwerk" will slam the
speakers! The dancefloors will burn! Released on Scanner and available May 29th,
2009.

CHAINREACTOR "X-TINCTION"
In the beginning this musicproject, founded by Jens Minor,
was experimenting with different styles of electronic music like
Electro,
Hardtechno, Drum n..Bass and Hardcore. In 2008, tracks like the
clubburner "Stalinallee" were released on diffrent compilations under
the pseudonym
"Spawn of anguish". Chainreactor was signed by ProNoize / Dark Dimensions in 2009 and
stands now for a composition of elements from Powernoise, Industrial and Techno. Minimalistic and
dark, though being excessive at the same time, Chainreactor gets the sound
of the scene to the point. The distorted rhythm and the powerful beat dynamics
make any dark dancefloor burning. Be anxious for the debutalbum of
this project
from Düsseldorf / Germany which
will be coming soon. Released on Pro Noize and available June 6th,
2009.

***** NEWS FROM ARTOFFACT
RECORDS!
S.V.D
- NO ORDINARY MAN (DIGITAL-ONLY COMEBACK EP)
Having
released a single and debut album on Dependent Records, Vancouver’s S.V.D is
back this year with a digital-only EP that finds them in full form. Front-man
Steve Campbell is energetic as always and all six digital cuts tear it up.
Sonically, the band has progressed but this does not mean that they have left
behind the strong influence of their Vancouver predecessors, Skinny Puppy,
Frontline Assembly, and Numb. Electronic sounds mix with guitar sampling,
melodic vocals are tweeked by spoken-word stylistics. The result is slamming
industrial, Canadian style: check out 21st Century Mind and Dreaded Afterglow to
be convinced. Then come back and listen to the development, processed vocals,
trance elements, and addictive vibe of I Can’t Contradict. This little EP proves
S.V.D to be one of the most original and addicting acts in
Canada.
Orders
from the Artoffact Store will receive a special bonus: a download of the band’s
excellent video for their great song Wormwood.
Available May 5th, 2009.
