Waldbühne at the Hermannsdenkmal, Detmold, Germany
2nd July 2016
Owls'n'Bats Festival with Black Nail Cabaret, Saigon Blue Rain, Then Comes Silence, Escape with Romeo, Clan of Xymox

Summer - it's a time that creatures of darkness prefer to spent in the shade. On a special day, though, such as July 2, we like to get out, leave our caves and coffins, and do a pilgrimage to special locations, like the Waldbühne at the monument called Hermannsdenkmal in Detmold, Germany, located in the midst of nature. What for? Of course to join in the wonderful Owls'n'Bats open air festival, which enriches the dark scene since 2014, for a truly “black celebration” in the woods of the Teutoburg Forest. This year's line-up once again sounds very promising: We'll be bewitched by BLACK NAIL CABARET, SAIGON BLUE RAIN, THEN COMES SILENCE, ESCAPE WITH ROMEO, and CLAN OF XYMOX. The Owls'n'Bats a must go for everybody into Dark Electro and Electronica, Indie, Shoegaze, Gothic Metal, Darkwave, Goth Pop, Post Punk, Alternative Rock and Gothic Rock!

Lead singer Joel Stoker on the choice to make it a double album; “It was just a case of having trouble picking the 11 or 12 songs for the album. There wasn’t any that we wanted to leave off so we decided to just throw them all on. It’s just a case of giving our fans as much music as possible”

Madness

Though it’s been some years that MADNESS has released some new material the band is busily touring in 2016. Unfortunately there are only two concerts taking place in Germany. Together with THE SPECIALS the band was one of the most important representatives of the Ska genre back in the eighties. Unmistakable is the witty playfulness and the fulminant mixture of Ska, Punk, Pop, also called the “Nutty sound” by the band.
