The end of the electronic Ice Age:
The new project „Eisfabrik“ is the extraordinary presentation of electronic music. Expressive vocals with a balanced mix of modern electronic music with danceable synth- and futurepop elements, electronic supercooled visualizations and a truly “cool” stage show create a unique work: The members of the „Eisfabrik“ (engl: “Ice Factory”) produce music and atmospheres of a special kind, which does not exist until now. The electronic Trans-Siberian Express is on the run and immediately at full speed. The sound is not comparable to any previously known band. Each song has an individual sound, but you always recognize this unique style. The expressive voice of Dr. Schnee is a big part of this. The individual sound of Eisfabrik does really take its own place in the scene.

New York hardcore pioneers AGNOSTIC FRONT have announced the details for the band's upcoming eleventh album, 'The American Dream Died'. Commented singer Roger Miret: "We chose this title cause we want to open up people's eyes to what's going on in this country. We have a lot to say. Not everyone realizes that our government and the people who run this country are so corrupt, greedy and ruthless. We need to educate the ones we reach. We're loosing our values.We address real issues from full blown corruption and scandals to unjust police abuse and brutality. Everything's we stood for as a country is going down the drain. But we still somewhat have our freedom of speech. We're expressing it all through this record while we can."

Few groups can match Blutengel's prowess in expertly pulling the strings on an entire gamut of feelings, creating a gripping yet catchy monument for the dark side that resides deeply in each and everyone of us, while transitioning seamlessly into a dance floor compatible fireworks display of electronic beats.

"Omen" generates an irresistible pull from a masterful combination of opposing forces, such as the eternal conflict between Heaven and Hell, erotism and emotion, or atmosphere and club-feeling.
