Dark-Electro-Gothic-Pop-EBM? On “No Paradise”, Avoid Kharma refuse to be easily pigeonholed. Front man and mastermind David K. (ex-Trümmerwelten) and his gang fuse heavy Gothic pathos with fat beats, solid synth sounds and catchy melodies to a versatile, dark and floor-smashing mix. Whether they are creating straightforward Dark-Electro-anthems in the vein of old Terminal Choice or Project Pitchfork, touching on sequencer-laden EBM-attacks or losing themselves in atmospheric Electro Goth – the group’s beats always provide a rock-solid foundation, over which Dave delivers the melodies with a sonorous, deep voice. On the song “The Hostage”, Avoid Kharma have even managed to get Blutengel- and Terminal-Choice-mastermind Chris Pohl to do some guest vocals … and he delivers a mesmerizing vocal duel with David K. as the protagonist’s “inner voice.” “No Paradise” is an ideal soundtrack for red wine and candle light, but also for shaking those limbs in a club … it is all just a matter of volume!
