The dark side is often very luring… especially if it comes in form of catchy tunes with massive beats, like on the new album from German Electro-goths Cephalgy. It is titled “Herzschlag” and easily their most versatile endeavour so far, featuring strong stompers, such as the aptly-titled “Electroholic” or “Hass Mich”, alongside aggressive attacks (“Dunkelseele”), pulsating Dark-Electro-hits (“Königin”) and melodic Wave-anthems (“Müde.”) Cephalgy are driving their sound to the extremes without sacrificing their characteristically dark, yet catchy style. The unmistakable deep voice of Jörg G. is as intense as ever and the album is even more club-compatible than its predecessors. The limited first edition in Digipak will contain a bonus CD with four extra tracks plus four remixes. Join the Electroholics and dance with your darkness! Feel the heartbeat (=”Herzschlag!”). [Release: 10th Oct 2008]
