Summer time = festival time! Every summer since 2005, a must-attend event is the Amphi Festival, taking place each year in July at the Tanzbrunnen in Cologne. The problem is: very often you hear lots of good and new music and are wishing to take some sort of souvenir home afterwards but your purse, being utterly empty from all the festival madness, will not allow you to buy all the bands’ latest CDs. At this year’s Amphi Festival, things will be different, as we have put together a compilation of the latest hits of some of the best bands – at the price of an EP! 18 titles, a musical mix as versatile as the festival’s line up and an illustrious assortment of artists (among them Hocico, Front 242, Feindflug, Laibach, Covenant, Agonoize, Marsheaux, Eisbrecher, Leaether Strip, The Birthday Massacre, Saltation Mortis and many more) make the “Amphi Festival 2009 Compilation” the perfect festival companion. To top things off, the CD contains one previously unreleased song from both Swedish newcomers Auto-Auto and Berlin-based Harsh-Electro-berzerkers Agonoize, plus some live tracks and remixes. This year marks the Amphi festival’s fifth instalment – so take a piece of it home!- Details

Mantus
Presumed dead but still alive... For some years they shrouded themselves in silence: they could have been regarded as dead. But quite evidently MANTUS put the time after the split of the band in 2005 to good use, as only a short while after the release of their resurrection album called 'Requiem' in January 2009, they add fuel to the fire with the EP 'Königreich der Angst' in May. Already with their very first release "Liebe und Tod" (release in 2000), MANTUS had drawn much attention in media and press and had gathered many fans in the gothic scene with their distinguished melancholic rock music with dark romantic lyrics. With the new EP MANTUS prove again to be an important part of the contemporary gothic scene.
