Australian dark electro/folk duo Dandelion Wine ran a successful crowdfunding campaign through Pozible.com to raise money for their latest European Tour, which will include performances at Festival Mediaval (DE) and Bruchtal Festival (CH) along with headline shows in Estonia, Germany, Poland and the bandʼs first ever performance in Hong Kong. The campaign was so successful that they raised more than their initial target, with fans from four continents all contributing to the success. One of the rewards on offer for people who pledged money to the campaign was the opportunity to choose the colour of singer Naomi Hendersonʼs hair for the duration of the tour for a contribution of $AUD600. This reward was purchased by one of the organisers of Festival Mediaval who rather than choose the colour has instead opted to open the decision up to a vote on the festivalʼs forum and facebook page. Pink? Blue? Green? Head to www.facebook.com/DandelionWineAU to vote!

Female fronted Industrial Pop/Rock artists, Chamber Of Echoes, have released the first music video "World Of Silence" from their upcoming record of the same name. "It was a life dream accomplished, something I had dreamt about for nearly a decade, and it finally happened. It combined everything I love simultaneously; music production, singing, acting, performance, costume, makeup and set design, teamwork, working with so many wonderful musicians, artists and designers, and building a dystopian, paranormal, and conspiracy-theory laden environment with strong characters the audience can identify with...it was one of the most unbelievable life experiences I've ever had." (Klaryssa) You can watch the video at YouTube.

As previously announced, PARADISE LOST will celebrate their 25th anniversary with a very special show at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards that will be held on June 17 at London's esteemed Indigo2 venue (headlined by the other British legends Motorhead). PARADISE LOST invited their friends Cristina Scabbia (Lacuna Coil) who will sing "Say Just Words" in a duet with Nick Holmes and Gus G (Firewind, Ozzy Osbourne) who will join PARADISE LOST to pay tribute to the godfathers of metal, Black Sabbath, for an "Into the Void" cover version. You will find fan footage on YouTube a few hours later, but you know it won't be the same - so hurry up and grab a ticket.
