Welcome to the weekly round-up of forthcoming releases.

With his brand new EP "Mädchen in Uniform" General Thomas Rainer offers up three all-new tracks that are certainly not what one would expect from his NACHTMAHR project. Eight adaptations and remixes by FEINDFLUG, MODULATE and others, and "Tanzdiktator" and "Mörder", complete this 13-track EP. The limited edition collector's set features the new MCD plus a wonderful t-shirt/girlie shirt. Don't forget the upcoming NACHTMAHR gig in Preston at the end of November!!

THROBBING GRISTLE
's bastard offspring of the now-famous ambient loop player, the 'Buddha Machine', "Gristleism" is part industrial sound machine, part noise instrument. Featuring thirteen original and uncompromising loops, "Gristleism" delivers a mix of signature TG experimental noise, industrial drone, and classic melodies and rhythms. Available in three colours - Black, Chrome and Red.

C-DRONE-DEFECT have already been in existence for more than ten years. The new album "Dystopia" manages to raise the bar in terms of song writing and sound composing. Driving rhythms, catchy keyboard soundscapes and perfectly arranged vocals mixed up with some great new ideas and creativity all combine to make what is sure to be one of the most incredible electro albums of 2010. The first limited edition of 1,000 copies also comes with an exclusive bonus CD.

It's been more than 14 years since the first album from NEOTEK surprised listeners all over the world with a mix of dancefloor-friendly club anthems, old-school EBM and electro-industrial tracks. Now this Danish electro act are back with an even more surprising album - an electronic work of art where no musical boundaries or conventions are upheld. The first pressing of "Sex, Murder and Rock'n'Roll" contains a bonus DVD with several videos documenting both the band and their live energy, plus five extra tracks and a whole new take on how to provide album information.

Both FLINT GLASS' debut "Hierakonpolis" and the completely sold out follow-up "Nyarlathotep" were said to be some of the best and most innovative industrial/dark ambient albums of their time. Now "Nyarlathotep" comes up as a very special re-release edition, strictly limited to 500 copies and includes the brand new bonus EP "From Beyond"!

10 years of DIE PERLEN! and the complete early works are sold out... That is reason enough for an anniversary compilation containing tracks from all periods - rare and old demo tracks, as well as brand new, previously unreleased songs. "Zehn" is a real piece of music history from the only band of the Telektroponk-genre.

Three new releases from TYMPANIK AUDIO now, including the definitive ESA remix collection, "The Immaculate Manipulation", featuring MANUFACTURA, C-DRONE-DEFECT, MARCHING DYNAMICS and more. "Nothing Lasts" from OPPOSITE EXHALE combines heart-wrenching melodies, epic piano movements, and stunning distorted beatwork to create an unforgettable jaunt of a massive electronic persuasion. Think IMMINENT meets LOSS with a hint of STENDECK. And finally from TYMPANIK, Poland's elusive talent UNDERMATHIC emerges for his debut. An unapologetic collage of surging rhythms, delicate piano compositions, and true sonic purity, "Return to Childhood" will undoubtedly captivate your mind and seize all of your bodily senses.

JANOSCH MOLDAU, internationally acclaimed creator of electronic sounds, is releasing a long awaited remix album of his second album "Motel Songs". Based in the Southern German city of Ulm, JANOSCH has gained an extremely good reputation as an artist continuing to combine catchy electro pop tunes and glamorous guitar sounds with his crooning voice. The debut release "Redeemer" is also now available through MNS. Recorded over a period of 18 months in his home studio, this is an album full of intimacy and silence. Our European (mainland) customers will be able to catch JANOSCH supporting the excellent MESH on tour this month.

THE LAW-RAH COLLECTIVE have upped the ante with their seventh full release "Solitaire". Sound wise they return to the project's origins: a combination of ambient structures and deep drones with sudden breaks in the sound spectrum.

"Rotcast" is another rhythmic industrial release from CONTAMINANT. The bonus disc features remixes by THE LAW-RAH COLLECTIVE, ISZOLOSCOPE, HYPNOSKULL, and many more.

The collaborative release between the two labels Eternal Soul and Cold Meat Industry, TriORE's "Three Hours", is now also available as a special Eternal Soul Limited Edition. This is a hand-numbered edition strictly limited to 600 copies.

THEATRES DES VAMPIRES were among the first bands with a sound that would later be called 'Vampiric Metal'. Characterised by songs that are melancholic and crepuscular, yet always powerful and catchy, "Pleasure and Pain" is their seventh album, featuring guests including Bruno Kramm from DAS ICH. Now, with "Anima Noir", the evolution of their sound has taken another step in quality and passion.


Have a great week!

Nachtmahr Mädchen in Uniform £10.75
Review
Don't you want them too, these girls in uniform? With their well-behaved partings, their dutifully buttoned shirts and their shiny leather boots? Chins erect and chests held high, they stand in rank and file, awaiting further instructions from NACHTMAHR high command...

With his brand new EP "Mädchen in Uniform" General Thomas Rainer dedicates a long overdue monument to the uniformed ladies of this world. And while the musical side of this release breaks rank somewhat with NACHTMAHR's back catalogue, the visual and conceptual side retain their dominant militaristic approach.

After global thrusts on the concert front and the destroying storm of decadence and obsession aptly named "Alle Lust Will Ewigkeit" which laid the world to waste and successfully defended the peak of the DAC (German Alternative Charts) for several weeks in a row, Supreme Commander Rainer puts a sonic middle finger up to all those accusing the Austrian Imperial Industrial commando of monotony. Not only is "Mädchen in Uniform" far from the usual album extraction, moreover, the three all-new tracks offer a musical experience that is certainly not what one would expect from this project.

A passionate salute to military clothing, the title track surprises the listener an old-fashioned, straight-up EBM attack in the vein of DAF or SPETSNAZ, equipped with intense vocals and blazing lyrics that once more speak out loud something we all secretly think: girls in uniforms are devilishly sexy! And this is only the beginning: enigmatic and influenced by Latin American sounds, NACHTMAHR evoke the malicious fable creature El Chupacabra in the stomping industrial track of the same name. But the EP's second big trump card is doubtlessly a very special cover version that will cause chins everywhere to drop: with imperialistic vigour and fierce vocals the high society farce "Titanic" by the infamous Austrian Superstar FALCO is being claimed for the empire, its decadent core fitting perfectly in the NACHTMAHR universe.

Eight adaptations, among them a congenial FADERHEAD interpretation of the marching title track and remixes by FEINDFLUG, MODULATE and others, "Tanzdiktator" and "Mörder", complete the musical side of this 13-track EP whose visual side explores new areas of military seduction. Unmistakably committed to the obsessive, sexualized style of the last release, the artwork and extra booklet of "Mädchen in Uniform" are a provocative homage to the much disputed and scandalizing Italian movie "The Night Porter".

But now, dear girls, put on your uniforms: General Rainer asks for the next dance.

Throbbing Gristle Gristleism (Black) £23.50
Review
Bastard offspring of now-famous ambient loop player, the 'Buddha Machine', "Gristleism" is part industrial sound machine, part noise instrument. Featuring thirteen original and uncompromising loops, "Gristleism" delivers a mix of signature TG experimental noise, industrial drone, and classic melodies and rhythms. Available in three colours - Black, Chrome and Red - the palm-sized unit (67mm x 69mm x 35mm) features a built-in speaker, volume control, pitch-shift control and loop selector switch. "Gristleism" features more loops and almost twice the frequency range of the original Buddha Machine. It is powered by two AA batteries and is the world's first and only portable TG aural exciter!

"Gristleism" was born from a collaboration between Industrial Records, Throbbing Gristle and Christiaan Virant, the creator of the original FM3 Buddha Machines. It comes packaged in a exquisite 'chinese paper-cut' wrapping, featuring a repeating TG logo pattern, foil embossing and UV ink.

C-Drone Defect Dystopia £12.25
Review
C-DRONE-DEFECT, who have already been in existence for more than ten years, has become the insiders' tip of the German electro scene. Both of their previous CDs, "Neural Dysorder Syndrome" (SPV) and "Nemesis" (NoiTekk) were really successful - but compared to the new album "Dystopia" they appear to be more like rough diamonds. "Dystopia" manages it to raise the bar in terms of songwriting and sound composing to such a level that hardly any other project can compare to it. The free Net-EP "Letters from Dystopia" really raised expectations - and the longplayer "Dystopia" certainly meets them. Driving rhythms, catchy keyboard soundscapes and perfectly arranged vocals mixed up with some great new ideas and creativity all combine to make what is sure to be one of the most incredible electro albums of 2010. Threatening - dark - gloomy - hymnal! That's it! Test it! The first limited edition of 1000 copies also comes with an exclusive bonus CD.

Neotek Sex, Murder and Rock'n'Roll £12.25
Review
The wait is over - the new album from NEOTEK, "Sex, Murder and Rock'n'Roll" is here!

It's been more than 14 years since the first album from this Danish electro act surprised listeners all over the world with a mix of dancefloor-friendly club anthems, old-school EBM and electro-industrial tracks. Classics like "Mind-Travelling" and "Pink Noise" even hit the American alternative Top 10 dance charts and have been featured on many compilations since then. Now NEOTEK, signed to Black Rain Records, are back with an even more surprising album - an electronic work of art where no musical boundaries or conventions are upheld. The album consists of eleven uncompromising and diverse tracks drawing on the traditions of industrial, electronica, rock, hip-hop and a lot of other genres to create its own unique eclectic musical mix. Eleven well-produced tunes with lots of creatively crafted electronic sounds. Eleven haunting melodies full of imaginative song writing. Eleven lyrical stories for your inner movie of eleven human beings pushed to the edge and how they deal with the extreme situations they are in. Eleven songs about "Sex, Murder and Rock'n'Roll"!

The first pressing of "Sex, Murder and Rock'n'Roll" contains a bonus DVD (playing time 120 minutes) with several videos documenting both the band and their live energy, plus five extra tracks and a whole new take on how to provide album information.

Flint Glass Nyarlathotep/From Beyond EP [Re-issue] £13.00
Review
Both the debut "Hierakonpolis" and the completely sold out follow-up "Nyarlathotep" were said to be some of the best and most innovative industrial/dark ambient albums of their time. Now "Nyarlathotep" comes up as a very special re-release edition.

On this album, FLINT GLASS wander through melodic, sad and obscure worlds without leaving the typical cold, dark and ambient sound that they became famous for. Inspired by H. P. Lovecraft's novellas, the tracks on "Nyarlathotep" give room for epic battles between coldness and warmth. The lack of vocals on "Nyarlathotep" make this CD a visionary piece of art which fits perfectly into any horror movie portraying foggy woods, moon landscapes and horrid aberrations. Experience-disturbing soundscapes, morbid visions and thrilling song structures. "Nyarlathotep" - this means dark sound worlds that reach artists like AH CAMA SOTZ or MLADA FRONTA. But it is also the warm and cosy side of "Nyarlathotep" that helps create a unique sound collage. The re-release edition is strictly limited to 500 copies and includes the brand new bonus EP "From Beyond"!

Die Perlen Zehn £12.25
Review
10 years of DIE PERLEN! 10 years of Telektroponk! And the complete early works are sold out... That is reason enough for a fulminant anniversary compilation containing tracks from all periods - rare and old demo tracks, as well as brand new, previously unreleased songs.

For many years, DIE PERLEN, the two guys from Nuremberg, have entertained their audiences with not only great releases but also really cool live performances. With this CD, DIE PERLEN not only present you a retrospective but also move one step forward! A real piece of music history from the only band of the Telektroponk-genre. And the real highlight is that the tracks on the compilation were chosen by DIE PERLEN fans...

Undermathic Return to Childhood £11.75
Review
Poland's elusive talent UNDERMATHIC emerges for his debut on Tympanik Audio. Within his blanket of obscurity, UNDERMATHIC makes his mark with an album of massive distinction and undeniable grace. An unapologetic collage of surging rhythms, delicate piano compositions, and true sonic purity, "Return to Childhood" will undoubtedly captivate your mind and seize all of your bodily senses. Somewhere between the urgent complexity of GINORMOUS and the beautiful, thick atmospheres of LUSINE ICL lies UNDERMATHIC, ready to acquit the listener of any preconceived notions and instead launching into a sonic-laced epicentre of electronic sound. Saturated in beauty, organic rhythms, and a virtual tide of sophistication, "Return to Childhood" easily stands on its own ground offering an immense album full of life and vision that transcends genres and ultimately arrives as a genuine preview of the future of intelligent electronic music. Packaged in a 6-panel digipak with stunning artwork by Salt.

Janosch Moldau Redeemer £11.75
Review
Debut release from JANOSCH MOLDAU. "On My Own", the first single to be lifted from the album, was released in 2004 to great acclaim. Even though Janosch has added a sensual electronic sheen to all of his songs, "Redeemer" is poles apart from electroclash or any other superficial hype. Recorded over a period of 18 months in his home studio, this is an album full of intimacy and silence. "There is a guiding spirit to all of my songs, a personal connection to the things I've seen" says Janosch.

The Law-Rah Collective Solitaire £13.50
Review
As on the 2008 Ant-Zen album "Inspiration", the duo Martijn Pieck and Bauke van der Wal have upped the ante with the Collective's seventh full release. Soundwise they return to the project's origins: a combination of ambient structures and deep drones with sudden breaks in the sound spectrum. Solitaire's threatening and oppressive mood will leave you in a state and in a place where you haven't been before. A new reality which is more then the sum of its parts.

TriORE Three Hours £17.75
Review
This fairytale started to unravel four years ago with the release of TRIARII's "Piece Heroique". A sinister seed was planted in the fertile soil of northern Europe as Christian Erdmann (TRIARII) and Tomas Pettersson (ORDO ROSARIUS EQUILIBRIO) gave birth to the track "Roses 4 Rome". And now finally, the progeny has been conceived and fully developed; and what they call TriORE, has ultimately been born.

Both participants go beyond themselves and step out of normal character, but TriORE is nonetheless the embodiment of all that which is TRIARII, and all that which is ORDO ROSARIUS EQUILIBRIO; like a succulent apple in two opposite pieces just waiting to be devoured.

The bombastic touch of TRIARII is definitely present - the string sections, the choirs, the martial drums and much more - alongside the eloquence of ORDO ROSARIUS EQUILIBRIO - musically and melodically, as well as lyrically. This is what all lovers of both bands have been waiting for, a complete forty minutes of Art Deco Industrial Pop.

This work begins where "Roses 4 Rome" left us, and takes us from the rising of victory, through the trenches and all the way till Europa falls.

This collaborative release between the two labels Eternal Soul and Cold Meat Industry is now also available as a special Eternal Soul Limited Edition. It is packaged in a super jewel box inside a specially designed slider which contains two exclusive postcards. This is a hand-numbered edition strictly limited to 600 copies.

Theatres Des Vampires Pleasure and Pain £11.75
Review
Seventh album from the Italian Vampiric Theatre, now fronted by female Mistress Sonya Scarlet - modern and refreshing gothic metal at his best, with a bloody touch... featuring guests like Bruno Kramm from DAS ICH, Flegias from NECRODEATH, Dhilez from ANCIENT and Giampaolo from STORMLORD.

THEATRES DES VAMPIRES feature a massive use of female vocals and a wonderful romantic atmosphere. This album contains diverse elements that owe something to the band's Latin blood, the stylish splatter of Italian horror, the symphonic excess of opera, the blood-soaked allure of their long history, all of which combine to make THEATRES DES VAMPIRES one of the most elegantly dark, and eerily compelling metal bands the world has to offer.

Theatres Des Vampires Anima Noir £11.75
Review
THEATRES DES VAMPIRES were among the first bands with a sound that would later be called 'Vampiric Metal'. Their horror and gothic attitude was associated with an almost maniacal search for everything connected to vampirism... Their coherent image, the themes and atmospheres, resulted in a real cult being born among their fans, a sort of religion, that made them follow the band everywhere and create many fan clubs all over the world. During the years their sound, which at first was strongly influenced by symphonic black metal, has evolved into something that rarely quite different to the music of other metal bands, mixing different influences from gothic, electronic and classical music, opera and rock. In only a few years, THEATRES DES VAMPIRES have created a personal style characterized by songs that are melancholic and crepuscular, yet always powerful and catchy, where male and female vocals melt together as if in some kind of sepulchral wedding.

However, since 2004, female vocalist Sonya Scarlet has fronted the band alone: now she no longer has a secondary vocal role anymore and can show her talent. The previous studio album "Pleasure and Pain" achieved great critical acclaim, and was followed with the release of the double live album "Desire of Damnation" in which the band set a new standard of quality, both in terms of their sound and their production. And now, with "Anima Noir", the evolution of their sound has taken another step in quality and passion.

Dawn & Dusk Entwined Cathédrales de Brume £11.75
Review
The new album by DAWN & DUSK ENTWINED is no less than a soundtrack to the sci-fi novel "Cathédrales de Brume" ('Cathedrals of Mist') by the two French authors: Oksana (yes, the famous French Pornstar) and Gil Prou. These 27 tracks will carry you on a musical odyssey through realms that may remind you a little of IN THE NURSERY, GEORGŸ LIGETI, RAISON D'ÊTRE, and of course... DAWN & DUSK ENTWINED! The album succeeds, in its 73 minute duration, in crystallizing and magnifying the various adventures of an epic and poetic plot, creating a gloomy and agonizing soundtrack that symbolizes the destiny of a human being condemned to wander simultaneously through the voids of space and of his inner psyche.

DAWN & DUSK ENTWINED have been following their own unique path since their debut on "World Serpent" in 1999 right up until their most recent albums on Cold Meat Industry, and now they offer a fully instrumental album with eclectic but at the same time homogeneous tracks, fed in the crucible of the novel to release surprising and different atmospheres...

Strictly limited to strictly 500 copies!

Human Puppets Future from the Past [Re-Issue] £15.50
Review
Another great re-release from the Eternal Soul label, best known for the TRIARII albums, but also home to BRACHIAL PALSY, AXON NEURON, PHELIOS and others.

"Kernkrach", the first single by the Greek band HUMAN PUPPETS, released only as 7" vinyl on the Hertz-Schrittmacher label, was a real bomb and sold out in the blink of an eye! It was followed by the debut album "Future from the Past", containing yet more of that authentic 80s-style minimal electro sound (comparable to acts such as SNOWY RED, FAD GADGET and the early works of NEON JUDGEMENT), once again released only on vinyl.

This re-issue of the album, available for the first time ever on CD, is a sort of 'best of' HUMAN PUPPETS. It includes the original album, plus all tracks from the deleted 7" and plenty of previously unreleased songs and live tracks, making a total of eight bonus tracks. Top sound, top artwork, and limited to just 500 copies, this release is destined to be sold out and rare collector's item in just a few months.

Dunkelwerk Höllenbrut £12.50
Review
It took some four years for our one-man army to emotionally recover from the despair he encountered on the German Battlefields of his debut album "Troops". Yet time has passed and although the wounds have not healed, DUNKELWERK's lost trooper has returned to write and arrange another conceptual long player celebrating once more the difficult theme of "Total Defeat".

"Höllenbrut" is another truthful "Endzeit" album, in the pure and traditional sense of the word. DUNKELWERK takes us this time through dark horror fields haunted by beasts and vampires. We follow him in an eternal quest for the loved Queen in a desperate world of broken hearts and defeat where fairytale characters are plunged into the harshness of dark literature. A dense atmosphere that is brilliantly captured and rendered in the album's artwork designed by the talented artist Oliver Haecker (Bastart-Worx).

On "Höllenbrut", DUNKELWERK reinforces his 'Endzeit by conviction' musical approach reminding us how unique he is in his effort to create strong sonic atmospheres where music and emotions merge and become one. German texts and samples, sorrowful orchestral arrangements and dark electronics create a desolated atmosphere haunted by hard and raucous yet distinct vocals (far away from the overused hyper-distorted effects) and carrying marching beats. Uncompromising Endzeit Electro with a strong attitude and impressive imagery that will please fans of dark elektro orchestral element.

Velvet Acid Christ The Art of Breaking Apart £12.75
Review
VELVET ACID CHRIST returns with his next auditory assault. With "The Art of Breaking Apart", his first new studio album in over three years, Bryan Erickson has taken a huge leap, not only in style, but in song structure as well. Fans will notice signature tracks such as "Tripped Out", "Vaporized" and "Phucked Up Phreak", yet many of the songs are quite different to what one might expect. Not only does the album feature acoustic guitar, but also untreated vocals as well (imagine DEATH IN JUNE meets THE CURE with electronic elements - if you already have listened to "Black Rainbows" on the recent "Septic VIII" compilation album you will understand).

Erickson has not even begun to tap into the innovations of which he is capable, even with more than a decade of musical experience under his belt. He has broken out of his restraints and created again something new and refreshing: "The Art of Breaking Apart".

Terminal Choice Keine Macht £6.75
Review
TERMINAL CHOICE return to form with the brand new smash "Keine Macht"! In the title track, massive dark electro sounds and fat walls of riffs result in the type of full-frontal sonic attack that is TC's trademark. Chris Pohl and guest singer Mina Harker engage in a searing vocal duel in the most club-compatible track the band has produced since "Menschenbrecher". 100% classic TERMINAL CHOICE, with the sonic impact of today's production standards. This strictly limited CD single will feature the single edit of the title track and two smashing remixes, plus another new killer track, aptly titled "Killer". "Keine Macht" is a formidable appetizer for the upcoming album - a guitar-infested dark electro inferno with addictive qualities.

Einstuerzende Neubauten Elektrokohle (Von Wegen) £20.75
Review
At noon on December 21st 1989, the members of EINSTÜRZENDE NEUBAUTEN - a band then hailed as a West-German cult export - hit the road in West Berlin for their very first concert in East Berlin, capital of the communist GDR. In those days, it was a long, strange journey from Berlin Kreuzberg to Berlin Lichtenberg, into the Wilhelm Pieck Hall of the industrial plant VEB Elektrokohle. The Berlin wall was still standing and there was still very tedious border control.

This film is not a pure 'live' movie - it does capture NEUBAUTEN's first live gig in East Germany, but it is also in the first place a documentary movie about the divided Berlin in its last days before re-unification; a documentary about the clash of Western (capitalist) with Eastern (communist) culture in those legendary days of radical change in Berlin.

"A powerful encounter that conveys the time's energy, its insecurity, but also its desire and excitement to get to know each other." Süddeutsche Zeitung

The first new release on the fine French Cortex label after years of silence. Cortex previously released bands such as SKOYZ, NEON CAGE EXPERIMENTS and WIRED BRAIN and now presents STUPRE - the decadent side-project of one F.Y.D. member - with ten tracks of modern dark electronic music featuring dirty lyrics influenced by old SKINNY PUPPY, WUMPSCUT and VELVET ACID CHRIST songs. "Priceless" makes you feel a clammy, perverse and feverish atmosphere, based on dark and heavy electro industrial tracks, gloomy and dirty stories written by the two french band members Narcisse and Verge, using a rough voice, harsh screams and lots of films samples. Some great musicians participated to this album too: zNo made the artwork, VX69 from PUNISH YOURSELF gave his voice for one song and NEON CAGE EXPERIMENT contributed a spectacular remix for another track. This album is a real jewel filled with smoke and the limited first edition comes with a unique free badge and sticker inside!

Frankie Goes To Hollywood Frankie Say Greatest £13.75
Review
25 years ago, a virtually unknown band caused more controversy and discord with their debut single than any other infamous band before them. When Radio 1 DJ Mike Read banned "Relax", no one could have possibly imagined the notoriety and fame that FRANKIE GOES TO HOLLYWOOD would find as a result. Or that the "Mike Read" episode was just the beginning.

FGTH burst onto the music scene and became a phenomena that no-one has matched since. The follow-up "Two Tribes" pushed the boundaries even further, now adding a political angle to their manifest and a video that made it onto the TV listings pages. "The Power of Love" and "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" enforced upon their peers that they also had the songwriting and instrumental skills that had so far been eclipsed by their attitude and non conformist performances.

"Frankie Say Greatest" is the greatest of 'Greatest Hits' packages, including the most popular remixes and re-workings of classic tracks such as "Ferry Cross the Mersey" alongside "Relax", "Two Tribes", "Rage Hard", "Born to Run" and "Warriors of the Wasteland".

Defrag Lament Element £13.00
Review
"Lament Element" presents a dynamic collision of power electronic styles. Crushing distorted beats, lush melodic soundscapes, and massive sub-basses collide with IDM edits and dubstep grooves. A perfect bridge between the distorted aggressiveness of drum'n'bass and IDM's complexity. Imagine minimalist grooves on speed, overdosed with dubstep injections. Riding eclectic curves between styles, Jeff Dodson calls into battle an assortment of punishingly heavy tunes, boosting the tension and emotion to unimaginable dimensions. "The title itself literally means 'The reason to sing for the dead'. Although not a literal application to anything, I intended it as a question: 'What's the reason people write passionate music?' That and a name should just sounds great." Indeed it does, try it!

Review
"A Hand Full of Days" is the third part of the Birch Book series and represents the culmination of a bizarre journey through "That High Lonesome Path". A collection of songs and incongruant meditations find family with stark passages and psychedelic interludes. A dreamy masterpiece of perfect songwriting, this superlimited edition of 400 copies comes in a heavy top-quality gatefold sleeve.

100Blumen Down with the System, Long Live the System! £12.75
Review
100BLUMEN's third album on Ant-Zen is a very comprehensive and elaborate one that displays a perfect merging of powerful rhythmic floral industrial and haunting technoid ambience. Throbbing dance sledgehammers like "The Unrest", "The Anger" and the electro anarchic power noise anthem "Unbreakable" prove that this artist is one of the leading present-day industrial masters.

Another facet of 100BLUMEN's mastery can be experienced on atmospheric tracks like "Tired Green" where mesmerising repetitive patterns and puissant sub-bass create a continuous hypnotic flow. The album's conclusion, "Klimaveränderung" combines M. Nickels' punk roots with hammering e-beats and electroacoustic sound collages - an amazing collaboration with guitarist C. Tiegelkamp and MARCHING DYNAMICS' Shane Talada. This is another step of the one man army's plan to destroy all flower haters with the burning beats of anarchy... and after that, he will have a drink. Eat the rich or die trying!

Acylum The Enemy + Der Feind £23.75
Review
Chemnitz-based artist Pedro Engel strikes back with a powerful third album. With the promising title of "The Enemy", ACYLUM's new CD has all features necessary to be elected best dark electro album of the year, blowing away all standards of the genre. Distancing himself even more from the myriads of Hellektro clones, ACYLUM takes his very own dark electro style and throws it onto the battlefield, facing the enemy without any compromise. The assault is relentless with solid harsh beats, hammering drums, 'punch-in-the-face' provocative lyrics, massive orchestral arrangements and intensely harsh vocals.

On this new CD, ACYLUM shouts his hate out clear and loud against humanity's sickest sides and chases his own personal demons. Battle after battle, song after song ("Achh", "The Enemy", "Torture Tactics") ACYLUM reveals his ascending power, excelling as usual in what he enjoys calling his 'anti-club songs'. These massive mid-tempo multi-layered tracks mix dark noise, dramatic heavy electronics and melodic moments. In his continuous sound progression and quest for new inspirations, ACYLUM also focuses on intelligent contrasts and challenging opposites, adding the unique female vocals of Nadine "Cooraz" Hagenbeck (HAUSHETAERE) who at special moments reinforces melodies and adds a dramatic tone to ACYLUM's apocalyptic tunes. Male and female vocal duets reach devastating heights on songs like "Zyclon B", "Kategorie C" or the brilliant pearl "Lightning Child", ACYLUM's most contagious song to date!

As if returning victorious from electro/industrial warfare was not enough, ACYLUM raises a sign here with "Raise Your Fist", an instant raging club hit that will trigger a tsunami effect on dancefloors all over the world. Throughout his three albums, the East German artist has gained a huge amount of sound identity and production maturity and has grown today into a dominating force on the dark electronic scene. No compromise, no failure.

The ACYLUM war-machine is marching your way, raise your fist and join the master on his raging ascension. Beware: "The Enemy" - this album holds harsher and darker material than any previous releases in the genre, beating :WUMPSCUT: and even SUICIDE COMMANDO's respective early work.

This limited deluxe carton box edition includes the bonus remix album "Der Feind" presenting some 15 re-interpretations of tracks from the album by various artists including the likes of VON THRONSTAHL, LEAETHER STRIP, SUPREME COURT, FGFC820, IMPLANT, PNE, CEPHALGY, ICE AGES and many more.

Helalyn Flowers Spacefloor Romance £10.50
Review
Definitely one of the most alluring and outstanding bands on the Alfa Matrix roster, the Italian duo HELALYN FLOWERS instantly caught the attention of the media thanks to their unique and exploding musical cocktail as well as their eye-catching imagery. With the E.P. "Spacefloor Romance", they break their silence and reveal the sound orientation that we can expect from their forthcoming second album "Stitches Of Eden". Definitely not the kind of band that enjoy repeating themselves again and again, HELALYN FLOWERS add to their characteristic intricate and incisive sound a touch of 80s pop rock inspiration, bringing a very pleasant catchy and melodic dimension to the band's already quite open and diversified musical style - currently based on dynamic synths, powerful basslines, strong guitars and outstanding female vocals.

Next to the upbeat alternative rock of "Hybrid Moments" and "Your Killer Toy", the wave-pop tone of "Never Enough" shows how Max's compositions have become more open and give much more space for N0emi's voice to breathe and reveal her impressively wide vocal range. As the icing on the cake, HELALYN FLOWERS have selected four quality remixes (all exclusive to this EP!) by LEAETHER STRIP, PSY'AVIAH, HALO IN REVERSE and the dancefloor masters STUDIO-X, each of which each offers a totally new electronic dimension to these great songs. An EP warming our appetite for more unconventional electronic pop-rock tunes from HELALYN FLOWERS... Recommended to fans of bands like GARBAGE, KILLING JOKE, DURAN DURAN, THE CURE, DEADSY, ORGY and even GARY NUMAN.

Implant Violence £10.75
Review
While their eighth studio album "Implantology" is still red hot and riding charting-topping success across the world, the Belgian project IMPLANT catches us by surprise with a new 12-track EP! It's a knockout 1-2 punch straight to the face! The EP features over 55 minutes of pure dancefloor electronic mishmash all centered on the title track "Violence". It's an exploding collaboration between Len Lemeire and ANGELSPIT's female singer Destroyx, which has received the remix treatment by three winners of the remix contest organised by the band and their label Alfa Matrix (MIZUH, PRUNE FLAT and MIDNIGHT'MARE), plus a hardstyle club mix by the renowned STUDIO-X combo. DJs will also enjoy the upbeat reworks of the album pearls "Rip That Thing" (featuring Dirk Dadavo of NEON JUDGEMENT on vocals) by SYSTEM FX and "The Dive" (featuring J-L De Meyer of FRONT 242) by SHIV-R. In addition, we are treated to three more unreleased and exclusive new songs that would each have deserved a solid place on IMPLANT's last album.

And the surprises keep coming! Notice the brilliant remix expertise of Daniel Myer (under the RENEGADE OF NOISE moniker), cult French act BUZZ and ERECTOR. It's time to do some more violence on the dancefloors with IMPLANT's industrial dance tunes. Turn on the machines - click click click.

Solitary Experiments In the Eye of the Beholder £15.25
Review
The Berlin-based trio SOLITARY EXPERIMENTS have long since understood the fact that good electronic music requires more than simply bringing together some synthesizer presets with some cuddly beats. Thus, on the new album "In the Eye of the Beholder", the band lay just as much emphasis on good song-writing, catchy melodies and multi-faceted arrangements as on club-compatible beats and solid bass. The anthemic electronic tracks keep the delicate balance between catchiness and a thorough dose of power that keeps them from ever drifting into the realms of pop-muzak. Effectively carried by Dennis Schober's warm voice and spiced up with a lot of emotional depth, "In the Eye of the Beholder" is a picture-perfect example of how intelligent electronic music in a field of tension between melody and club appeal should sound.

The first edition of this CD will be released in a cardboard sliderpak, and comes with a bonus disc that features remixes, rarities and unreleased tracks. Club sounds with a lot of soul!

Leaether Strip Yes, I'm Limited V £25.75
Review
LEAETHER STRIP's "Yes, I'm Limited" tradition enters into its 5th chapter! Especially compiled for all the band's hardcore fans who helped to make Claus Larsen's return to the stage in 2009 so unforgettable, the Danish artist dedicates to them this diversified collection of some 27 exclusive rarities.

And believe us this collection is definitely special enough to be released on Claus Larsen's birthday... A splendid double CD fan box which LEAETHER STRIP kick off with nine early demo songs from the 80s - Claus Larsen's first works ever! Add to this some special previously unreleased studio recordings of songs he has been playing live this year, such as "Kill a Faetish", "AEighty AEight (US mix) and the killer new version of "Don't Tame Your Soul". We also get the special live intros he wrote for his shows in Cologne and Gothenburg.

Other highlights include the very engaging "The Bears Aren't Sleeping Tonight", the intimate "Love Me or Die", the synthetic layers of the aptly titled "Fluidity" (a tribute to JEAN-MICHEL JARRE) and the next club hit and future new "AE" classic "Compassion". A total of nine totally new and unreleased tracks.

As if this were not enough, Claus Larsen also reveals a bunch of collaborations and remix work by bands like DIE KRUPPS, PROJECT PITCHFORK, AUTODAFEH, etc. As always, Larsen outdoes himself to offer 'the best of the best' to his cherished and faithful fanbase who have become an inherent part of the unique universe of LEAETHER STRIP, hovering between raging powerful dark elektro and moody melodic dark synths. The collection also features eye-catching artwork designed by American artist Evi Numen... Limited, yes it is... LEAETHER STRIP, yes it is...!!

Finally, this special limited box also includes the FREE 17-track exclusive label compilation "Sounds from the Matrix 009" revealing the talent of some of Claus Larsen's label mates.

SITD Rot [Limited Edition] £18.00

And so, after the quieter-than-anticipated "Bestie:Mensch", [:SITD:] are back with a new power album, and as befits its title, "Rot" is destined to shake the dancefloors worldwide!

This limited edition double CD will come in special luxurious packaging - further details to follow.

Zombie Girl The Halloween EP £10.75
Review
Who else but ZOMBIE GIRL would celebrate their comeback on Halloween? Underworld prophetess Renee Cooper and studio guru Sebastian Komor strike again reaching out of the fog with the new exciting "Halloween EP". The new release jumps straight into it with a harsh, brutal and almost blasphemous industrial re-interpretation of John Carpenter's legendary tune. ZOMBIE GIRL's new dancefloor invasion is once again guaranteed to rock you out reinforced by upbeat club remixes of their countless hits including the unavoidable "Bleeder", "I Want It", "The Darkness", "Creepy Crawler" and "Gonna Getcha". The hits are masterfully reworked by Komor himself and by futuristic remixers like IVARDENSPHERE, DR0NE and VIRTUAL TERRORIST.

With good old horror movies as a reoccurring theme in their work, the living dead superstars once again deliver more creepy noises and bleeding electronics on new pieces like "The Ones Who Walk at Night" and "From Below"... Renee's hypnotisingly witchy vocals and Sebastian's unbelievable sound power once again unite for another apocalyptical firework of "Zombie Techno Body Music", offering the perfect bridge between dark goth industrial and futuristic grooving electronics. Here they come, back again... The ZOMBIE GIRL duo invites you to the ultimate dead meat Halloween party. Succumb to their viral noise crusade and let ZOMBIE GIRL take another bite out of you...

Kirlian Camera Odyssey Europa £16.50
Review
KIRLIAN CAMERA are one of those particularly special acts that cause connoisseurs to rave about how good they are with glowing eyes, that manage to fuse sonic experiments, club-compatibility, anthemic pathos and a wholly unique aura into a one-of-a-kind experience and that has been able to span generations of fans. As such, a comprehensive retrospective of this Italian cult band is more than overdue, especially since large parts of their older discography are now out of print and very hard to obtain.

However, on this long-awaited compilation entitled "Odyssey Europa", Angelo Bergamini and Elena Alice Fossi are not content with just looking back on their past. Instead, they cleverly build a bridge to their current sound by including new recordings of their classic tunes as well. Thus, cult hits, such as "Eclipse", "Heldenplatz" and "Erinnerung", all mandatory spins at any decent underground club, are included in both their rare original versions and in new interpretations that convey the full power of KIRLIAN CAMERA anno 2009.

Zeromancer It Sounds Like Love (But It Looks Like Sex) £10.50
Review
"It Sounds Like Love (But It Looks Like Sex)" - ZEROMANCER couldn't have thought of a better title for the next single from their hit album "Sinners International"! Yes, it sounds like love: their feel for enticing hooklines, the slightly melancholy and poppy basslines... but in the end it's just pure sex, pure eroticism and pure energy! Cool, vigorous, straightforward rock songs which drive forward, bringing your blood to the boil, setting your heart pounding and sending your hormones crazy with fat guitar riffs, powerful beats and certifiably catchy melodies.

It's a long time since good rock music was as laden with emotion, as passionate and as erotic as that of ZEROMANCER, who with the utmost ease deliver dark, energetic hits, one after another. In addition to a couple of remixes, the EP finally contains the long-awaited DEPECHE MODE cover "Photographic", which is one of ZEROMANCER's biggest live hits. Also included is the collaboration with PIGFACE, "Mercenary".

With their striking mixture of gothic rock and electronic elements, ZEROMANCER remain sex'n'rock'n'roll in its best form! A radiantly seductive light which powerfully rises from the mush of the musical landscape and once again makes rock music just as it once was. Passionate, loud, rebellious and wild, without sacrificing any of the emotion.

16 Volt American Porn Songs £13.00
Review
Since the early nineties, 16 VOLT's Eric Powell has been one of the leading influences in the American industrial rock scene. After the dust had settled from 2006's brilliant "FullBlackHabit", Powell returned to the studio to begin work on his next masterpiece. The result, an even more refined, slightly more aggresive album entitled "American Porn Songs". The epic creation, features guest appearances by Tim Skold (MARILYN MANSON, KMFDM, SKOLD), Steve Pig (KMFDM, PIG), Joseph Bishara (DANZIG, RASPUTINA), and many more!

Imminent Cask Strength £13.25
Review
IMMINENT STARVATION, Olivier Moreau, has been a leading light in the intersection of powerful industrial music and advanced electronics. Incessant technoid rhythms, twisted electronic noise and cold, sinister atmospheric textures are the key ingredients in his musical spectrum.

After finishing "Nord/North" in 1999, he destroyed his mixing desk, gave away the pieces as part of the limited "Nord" release and shortened his moniker to IMMINENT. After the name change he produced remixes for SONAR, ISZOLOSCOPE, ORPHX and others, appeared on compilations, performed live and collaborated with SYNAPSCAPE as THE INCREDIBLE THREE. Furthermore he constantly worked on this new full length album - which has now been completed. Like any good whisky that has to mature for at least ten years in a cask, it took the same time for this release to maturate - and it was worth awaiting the ripening. Indeed the music is comparable to a cask strength whisky's taste: raw, aggressive, powerful, without any concession or any additive to dilute its true nature, but it also includes a lot of complexity waiting to be discovered by a true connoisseur. Straight beats interwoven with sophisticated breaks, brilliantly placed samples, intertwining powerful atmospheric synth textures and forceful distorted sequences (without inhibition) form into the sophisticated style of industrial music that IMMINENT is known and loved for. 64 minutes of music - taste it and full satisfaction is guaranteed!

Extize FallOut Nation £13.75
Review
The recently-released pill in the form of the EP "Hellektrostar" still hasn't been properly digested, thus the cyber-trance-industrial stars from EXT!ZE now administer the full dose. There will be no mercy!

Now that "Poser" and "Hellektrostar" have established themselves on the French and German dancefloors as absolute club stormers, the hypnotic mixture of driving beats, razor-sharp techno, threatening industrial and hypnotic trance is about to erupt from the home stereos. The strobe lights flash like crazy through the neon light-soaked night of the modern city and the heroes of cyberspace, in their amazing, decadent outfits, perform a crazy dance, in equal parts threatening and intoxicating, which leads into the depths of the human psyche.

EXT!ZE have increased the dose: the superstars let rip with a swirling mixture of sounds, beats, samples, sequences and vocals which are crazier and more varied than before... and this time over the complete length of a full album. This time there is no escape!

These 15 tracks (including remixes by FABRIK-C and THE LADDER) are the ultimate soundtrack to the dance following the world's collapse! The door has been open a long time! Take the pill and let yourselves fall into this madness, out of which there is no escape... No doctor or pharmacist can help with any risks or side effects: the only things which will help are the repeat button and another sweat-inducing dance in the crazy world of an infernal underground! Don't follow the white rabbit: follow EXT!ZE!

Genevieve Pasquier Le Cabaret Moi £13.25
Review
Three years after "Soap Bubble Factory" and "Virgin Pulses", Ant-Zen is proud to present GENEVIÉVE PASQUIER's new album. From the very first note the listener will be mesmerized by the elegant electronic pulses that are dominated by the persuasive/icy quality of her vulnerable and adorable voice. "Le Cabaret Moi" is GENEVIÉVE PASQUIER's very own cabaret. A cabaret which transforms her desires into fourteen songs of diverse styles (without regard to any arbitrariness). The music's scope ranges from subtle, slow-moving ambience ("Changing", "Nobody's Darling"), electro noise tunes ("Bouge!", "Fusion") and beautiful atmospheric lounge cabaret ("Mon Cabaret"), through to insistent electroid beats ("Rubberpop") and finally into a furious rapid interpretation of THE NORMAL's "Warm Leatherette". At once beautiful and distant, GENEVIÉVE PASQUIER's delivery speaks to everyone's feelings of loneliness, anger and pleasure that crop up at some point in life. A revue of class and noblesse - enter and enjoy your stay!

Herrschaft Tesla £11.75
Review
HERRSCHAFT came into existence at the end of the year 2004, from the dark thoughts of singer and lyricist M.X., to whom suddenly appeared the consciousness of the disastrous doom that is bound to humanity. From this mysterious revelation he embarked upon a mass recruitment plan that would result in him meeting his soldiers, firstly MaX (electro and live drums), then Zoé (guitars and sound engineering). Despite the fact that the three did not get on terribly well, they were driven by a common passion for anthropological research into mankind's future, and thus agreed to form a band that would explore both faces of our world, at once grand and desecrated. After a preliminary work of documentation and composition, HERRSCHAFT started practising live, and during summer of 2005 began the recording sessions for their first effort "Architects of the Humanicide". The Arrival of MaT as a second guitarist, at the end of the year did not help the stressful ambiance but did enable the band to make several chaotic live appearances in France during 2006. As Zoé explained after one of these tormented gigs: "We are not in control anymore".

However, the EP certainly awoke the interest of Italian label Code 666, assuring a well-deserved worldwide distribution to the masses, and providing the band with a new opportunity to deliver their apocalyptical message, in the form of a deal for an hypothetical future album. The band's notoriety grew as the internal relationships rotted. But as MX himself says, "the breed of this bad temper is the only thing that makes the band go forward". And as the years 2006 and 2007 became more and more unliveable, the time came to concentrate fully on the creation of the new opus. After a difficult, messy and mutual work of two years, even changing their band names in the way that foul kings attribute themselves false titles, M[z]X, Zo3, Xew and MaT present the result of their endeavours: a new album under the name of "Tesla". (Dis)organized like the pictures that come directly from the spirits of these four architects, created as a manuscript for the generations to come, "Tesla" is here to prove to the fans of metal and dark electro that the union of these atypical genres has found a new name...
