The newest instalment of the compilation series accompanying the annual Amphi Festival in Cologne, Germany features a line-up that reads like a „who is who“ of the international Gothic- and Electro- scene. Big names, such as Eisbrecher, Blutengel, Project Pitchfork, :SITD:, Assemblage 23, Nachtmahr and the legendary German Synth Pop band Camouflage meet shooting stars, like Lord Of The Lost and Aesthetic Perfection and cult bands like Spiritual Front or The Other on a sampler that showcases the enormous stylistic variety of the bands playing at the festival: from Harsh Electro, via Goth Rock, New Wave, Horror Punk and Synth-Pop, right down to Apocalyptic Folk.
“Amphi Festival 2012” is, thusly, not only the ideal companion and souvenir for this year’s spectacle, it is also one of the best and most interesting overviews of what today’s scene has to offer… and it comes at a the sensationally low price point of an EP! The jam-packed compilation is a mandatory purchase for any aficionado of the scene.
