With their first release of the EP, ‘Krieger’, NULL POSITIV has stirred up a lot of dust. Fat guitar riffs and blatant drums meet a front singer who appears from another star on the first listening. Growls and screams switch confidently with Hard Rock vocals or soulful calm tones. There does not seem to be anything singer Elli Berlin does not like or cannot do. Flat and clichéd statements are not the thing of the band. NULL POSITIV still understand music as a mouthpiece with real content.- Details

Mick Moss has revealed the artwork to the forthcoming 7th ANTIMATTER album 'Black Market Enlightenment'. The art, by Mario Nevado (Antimatter 'The Judas Table') captures the albums concept, that of entheogenic substance use that quickly spiralling out of control. Lyrically, 'Black Market Enlightenment' explores a very dark period in his life... a period of compulsive, daily substance abuse that began with him making a possibly misguided correlation between certain substances and spirituality, and culminated in Mick doubting that anything was real and being freaked out by his own existence, as he reveals on his Facebook pake. This artwork by Mario Nevado Aégis Illustration perfectly captures not only that lifestyle, but that ironic turn of events.- Details

Revered or feared, admired or persecuted, a symbol of good and evil and at the same time a symbol of wisdom, protector and sorceress of the night. If songwriter and singer Michael Sele owns this intriguing night bird as the namesake to the new album and tour, one may rightly assume that this eagerly awaited owl flight marks another milestone in the now twelve-year career of the charismatic mastermind and his band THE BEAUTY OF GEMINA. With twelve new songs and two instrumental tracks on the already eighth studio album, ‘Flying with the Owl‘ (release: October 12, 2018), Michael Sele again proves his international class as a composer, singer, arranger and producer beyond doubt.- Details

The Exploding Boy - “Tour Of Alarm” 2018
Founded in 2006, the band’s name (a historic CURE song) suggests where the roots of this Swedish band are to be found. But who fears another, threatening plagiarism of the men around Robert Smith, has already been taught a better one on the previous albums: THE EXPLODING BOY have inhaled spirit, soul and wit of the Goth, but sell them with individuality, verve and first Line with good songs. THE EXPLODING BOY released their new album, ‘Alarms!’, on May 18th, 2018. With their unique mixture of genres like indie, post punk and gothic the Swedes have made a name for themselves in particular scenes. In November and December 2018 the band will be coming to Germany for some selected dates!

"The hills are alive, with the sound of music, with songs they have sung, for a thousand years”LAIBACH have announced details of their eagerly awaited album, The Sound of Music, out on Mute on 23 November 2018 on vinyl, CD and digitally.
The Sound of Music was conceived when Laibach were infamously invited to perform in North Korea in 2015. The band performed several songs from the 1965 film’s soundtrack at the concert in Pyongyang, chosen by Laibach as it’s a well-known and beloved film in the DPRK and often used by schoolchildren to learn English. Laibach are joined by Boris Benko (Silence) and Marina Mårtensson on vocals and the album gives the Laibach treatment to tracks such as ‘My Favorite Things’, ‘Edelweiss’, ‘Do-Re-Mi’ and ‘Maria’, here reworked as ‘Maria / Korea’ (“How do you solve a problem like Maria / Korea?”).
