Goldfrapp
GOLDFRAPP’s newest body of work ‘Head First’ is living proof of how brilliant the duo accomplishes the task to redefine and invent their music every time anew, and the youngest part of a consequential and complete piece of art. The album spans wide from the compelling, electronic ballads of the Mercury prize nominated debut ‘Felt Mountain’ over the distorted dance floor elements of ‘Black Cherry’ to the glamour of the 2005 spectacle ‘Supernatural’ and the playful heart of ‘Seventh Tree’.

Eisbrecher, Stahlmann
It’s pretty safe to say that the band around Alexx Wesselsky and Noel Pix have come up with something that has brought the much loved EISBRECHER style together with new stylistic devices to not even give the slightest rise to thoughts of stagnation when releasing their newest effort ‘Eiszeit’ this year and the success the album has all over the place justifies them fully.

Lacuna Coil
On currently 5 full length records; LACUNA COIL from Milan developed an individual sound between Death Metal, menacing Gothic, modern Nu Metal and just the right pinch of pop music that even makes their music appealing to people outside the scene. Their fifth studio album ‘Shallow Life’, which has been released in spring 2009, is proof again they still haven’t lost their creativity and fun in the music.
