Things that take such a long time need to be good, doesn't it? At least that is the opinion of the band and they have after all decided to put the best 10 songs onto a CD and to make it available to the public via Strobelight Records. It's only a few weeks from now and simultaneously the Strobelight Records Boys have given in to their fetishism and manufactured a Vinyl Single version with 2 songs on it in a strictly limited number. Luckily the number of copies is greater than 3 and 497 other selectors and fetishists have the possibility to order it directly from strobelight- records.com. In the second part of August a CD-single with 3 songs will be played in the clubs. The other 7 songs including the 3 singles can be bought as a physical CD including a cover, artwork, booklet and so on or be downloaded off the Internet.The current line-up live:
Mic Jogwer: vocals and guitars
Brigid Anderson: keyboards
Ruebi Walter: guitars
Reini Walter: bass
Andreas Plappert: dums

CARPATHIAN FOREST’s Daniel Vrangsinn will take his own band live for the first time on Friday 3rd September, when VRANGSINN is scheduled to play the Tribute, in Sandnes, Norway. Anyone expecting to hear Black Metal in the vein of CARPATHIAN FOREST, or indeed of any of the myriad of other Black Metal bands that bear Vrangsinn’s inimitable stamp, be it as musician or on the production side, including bands such as NATTEFROST, SECHT, DEATHCULT, will be in for a surprise, because this band plays what Vrangsinn himself describes as “psychopop idiosyncrasy with an ounce of psychedelic doom rock”. The live line up will be fronted by Vrangsinn on vocals, while Benjamin Waldejer and Marius Grøtte of PHAT will handle guitar and drums respectively, and DEATHFARE’s Robert Technodrome will be on bass. Full details of the event can be found at http://www.vrangsinn.net/live.htm- Details
