Alfa Matrix is set to release the first chapter of the "Absolute Grrrls Manifesto" compilation box series – the ultimate anthology of female fronted bands from the alternative / underground music scene and its various subgenres (gothic metal, new wave, industrial, pop rock, electro, synth pop, EBM, techno...). This 4CDs collection (plus a 40-song additional soundcard) presents an unbelievable 111 (!!) bands in a deluxe carton box with an extensive 32-page booklet featuring the splendid design of Oliver Haecker (bastart-worx.de) with photos from all featured bands and an essay about the place of women in the music industry.

Featuring a real, "who is who" artist selection amongst the greatest female vocalists active in the scene across the world, it is clear to see why this compilation has been qualified by many as the ultimate anthology of female voices from the dark gothic / industrial / electro scene! ALL together to defend our beloved music scene and prove that the female gender from our alternative scene has much to offer in quality, emotion and diversity!

The complete track listing speaks for itself and features amongst others: TRISTANIA, THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE, LIV KRISTINE, AYRIA, COLLIDE, CHANDEEN, L'AME IMMORTELLE, XANDRIA, HELALYN FLOWERS, TYING TIFFANY, MARSHEAUX, I:SCINTILLA, LEAVE'S EYES, PSY'AVIAH, ISIS SIGNUM feat. SARA NOXX, THE DREAMSIDE, AAIMON, LOVELORN DOLLS, MANTUS, UNTER NULL, MELLONTA TAUTA, DARK ORANGE, GRAUSAME TÖCHTER, KARI BERG, THE LOVECRAVE, KRYSTAL SYSTEM, NUDE, ALICE IN VIDEOLAND, DAYBEHAVIOR, JUNKSISTA, GOD'S BOW, JAVELYNN, DIFFUZION, CELLULOIDE, NOBLESSE OBLIGE, GRENDEL, SOMAN, STRAY, MINA HARKER, REGENERATOR, SCHWARZBLUT, and so many, many, many more!

"Absolute Grrls Manifesto" reminds us how proud we can all be to have so many brilliant female composers, writers, singers, poets, and artists, who all contribute so many gifts to the music scene! Sensibility, femininity, sexiness, power, wit, passion… : it's all in there!! Let these female voices shine through their diversity and rule your ears for the next 500+ minutes… Enjoy without holding back: "Power to the girls" today!

After "Fxxk The Mainstream", "Endzeit Bunkertracks" or yet "Electronic Body Matrix", Alfa Matrix is inaugurating here a new deluxe 4CD box conceptual series bound to become another "classic must-have" and most successful compilation series in the alternative music scene… A FREE 18-track Alfa Matrix label compilation "Sounds From The Matrix 013" is also included in every compilation box.

A special dedicated site is available at www.alfa-matrix.com/manifesto1/ and includes a manifesto written by compiler Seba Dolimont together with various frontwomen of bands featured on the compilation.
