Belgian electronic music veteran and producer Eric van Wonterghem (ex-KLINIK and active member of INSEKT & SONAR) strikes back with the 6th album of his successful solo-effort MONOLITH. A project having the rare privilege to appeal to a very diversified audience, ranging from the Ant-zen/Hands harsh ambient/industrial camp through Novamute with more intellectual electronic tribal dance experiments or yet Gigolo Records and the whole new DJ generation from the electro clash gang.With “Talisman”, MONOLITH returns to its hypnotic tribal roots, the very same elements that first brought this project huge club success. New tracks like “Talisman”, “Shadow” and “Al Ahali (club mix)” maintain the standard of excellence and are all potential new dancefloor hits! Overall, this new album sounds more direct and more powerful / hi-energy oriented, which will please all fans of his meticulous cold and forceful arrangements constructed around repetitive loops, hypnotising electronic sequences and carrying mesmerising rhythmics take you into a multi-coloured journey through electro and industrial landscapes, each time incorporating new exotic elements, retro eighties tonalities and other judicious vocal samples. An uplifting tribal industrial techno experience to play at maximum volume!

Video for "God Has A Plan For Us All" recorded!
pictures from the shoot: http://www.angtoria.com/home.htm
The video for the title track "God Has A Plan For Us All" has been recorded. The video shoot went really well, and the director Måns Berthas and the extremely talented and devoted crew he put together did a truly amazing job! The video was filmed in two locations, a very impressive and beautiful
church (Njurunda Kyrka) and an abandoned deteriorated building, over a three day period and due to the lyrical theme of the song it was filmed much as a "short movie".

A road update from SONATA ARCTICA keyboardist, Henrik "Henkka" Klingenberg:Hello everybody ! I just wanted to drop you a quick line to tell y'all what's going on. We played our first show in Germany in Herne with Saxon and Doro among others. We started off in Sweden with three headlining shows and this tour will have a total of 26 shows in 10 countries. So far everything's gone pretty well and it feels great to be back on the road. Yesterday was a bit of a nightmare for me personally 'cause my keyboard rack broke down 5 minutes before we hit the stage. Luckily I have a backup system, and though I had to use some different sounds, we managed to play the show which is the main point anyway. This day will probably pass pretty fast, fixing the gear and doing some interwievs, and at nine it's showtime again. This night we have a drive of 800km to Budapest, where we'll play tomorrow. I'll try to check back in a couple of days. So far…."
