Interview withMarc Lynn (bass) from Gotthard
To introduce GOTTHARD to any rock fan shouldn`t be necessary the band is, as most aficionados know, in business since 1990 (damn I’m old) and is one of Switzerland’s best known bands of all time.

Interview with Veronica Vasicka (Minimal Wave label)
Veronica Vasicka is the founder and manager of the Minimal Wave record label in New-York. She became famous by unearthing lost tapes and forgotten vinyl records from the 70s and 80s and by giving them a second life on vinyl. Her passion goes mainly for obscure European artists and bands who pioneered synth-wave and synth-pop with minimal means, mostly analogue synths, drum machines and tape recorders. Like a true archaeologist, she unveiled pure gems like, Oppenheimer Analysis' ‘The Devil's Dancers’. The name of her label has now become a musical genre, "Minimal Wave", and her influence has been instrumental for the revival of analogue synth music in the last few years. Our editor Phil Blackmarquis caught up with her in Brussels, where she was spinning records at a party organized by Les Ateliers Claus.

Interview withJohan van Roy from Suicide Commando
Introducing SUICIDE COMMANDO? Not necessary, as Johan van Roy and his band is part of the electronic music scene for nearly 30 years. For those who still haven’t heard of SUICIDE COMMANDO: Mix interesting beats, interesting synthesizer arrangements with lyrics about failed relationships, the evil side of humanity or war and you have a song of the Belgian master mind Johan van Roy. Reflections of Darkness talked to Mr SUICIDE COMMANDO himself, Johan van Roy, about his upcoming show at Out of Line Weekender, Smurfs, bootlegging concerts and about love and relationships.

Interview with Rupert Keplinger (guitar / bass) from Darkhaus / Eisbrecher
Well, it’s always pleasant to listen to good music and of course to talk about it. So if you have an opportunity to talk to a good musician you just can’t miss this chance. And this time as such musician there came to be a multi-platinum songwriter/composer and just a good guy Rupert Keplinger, member of two great bands, EISBRECHER and DARKHAUS. I was very lucky (as usual) to get a chance to ask him a few questions about his music, guitars, future plans and what not. And although I just couldn’t go without flops, in general everything turned out to be fine. So the interview is below, just read, enjoy, stay cool and rock on!
