Perhaps even more." JESUS ON EXTASY's rollercoaster career has left its marks on the vocalist who, together with co-founder Chai Deveraux, embarked in 2005 on the mission of packaging suffering and love into digital rock songs. After JOE had shared the stage with other antichrist superstars such as MARILYN MANSON, PROJECT PITCHFORK, TOOL and SKINNY PUPPY, "the danger of losing touch with reality was great", Dorian confesses today.The digital dandies returned to planet Earth after their exhilaration waned, informing their fans of this fact in the title track of their third album, "No Gods". Sound guru Tim Schuldt was asked to channel the band's energetic fields – "the right man at the right time", the vocalist with the double D feels. "We wanted our music to sound harder, more rocking. Show steel, sweat and muscles, as we say in the Ruhr area." Their new motto is to take life into their own hands and rebel if need be. "The true heroes are all those who won't let themselves be blinded and who continue to fight against the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. It's high time somebody set BP's headquarters on fire." JOE are bringing the powder keg. Anybody got a light?Fri, 27 Aug 2010 00:00:00 +010000tz 00tz - Frequency Damage (CD)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23829After 00TZ 00TZ's (yes, spelled with zeroes) very successful debut release, "Death by Numbers", they now hit even harder with a more mature follow-up release entitled "Frequency Damage".  This album now features full vocals by Krysta Veronica Button."Frequency Damage" incorporates harsh electro, industrial and EBM styles of music, while creating a powerhouse blast of dancefloor-pounding beats and melodic synth rhythms, filled with memorable samples and thought-provoking lyrics behind dark flirtatious vocals.Songs like "Metamorphosis", "Human Condition", "Change the World" and "Eyes" will be sure to fill industrial dancefloors everywhere.Tue, 05 Oct 2010 00:00:00 +0100W.A.S.T.E. - A Silent Mantra of Rage (2CD)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23828We all have mantras we say in our heads silently everyday. Mantras to get through and tolerate our daily lives; good or bad. "A Silent Mantra of Rage" is a description that could be put on any political figure, any blue-collar worker, or anyone who has ever been in a relationship that they know deep down is wrong and/or is doing the wrong thing without choice for reasons that everyone has to endure. You have to put up with your boss on a daily basis; allowing them to cut you down to size so you can pay the bills for a house containing a partner who doesn't respect you. You are working for a government who you know is corrupt and doesn't truly give a shit about your well-being unless it fills their palms with gold. It's about a realization that comes to everyone's life at some point and a reality we all have to swallow forever in order to survive, because there is no escape.The third release from Southern California's premier rhythmic noise act, W.A.S.T.E., "A Silent Mantra of Rage" consists of twelve all-new tracks featuring "Marked for Extinction" and "The Death March". Also included is a bonus disc with previously unreleased tracks, the long-awaited versions of "Omega 3" and "I Don't Give a Fuck", plus re-mixes by XOTOX, MONO NO AWARE, CONTAMINANT, C/A/T, MONO-AMINE, ALTER DER RUINE, THE PEOPLES REPUBLIC OF EUROPE, and many more!Tue, 27 Oct 2009 00:00:00 +0000The Peoples Republic of Europe - Babylon (CD)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23827So you saw "Zeitgeist". Maybe you have even read the statement of the Unabomber. Are we being manipulated? Is there a grand scheme behind everything? Perhaps not, but when big groups of people, coupled with technology, create a society, this is what we get. Fair? Most certainly not! Dangerous? Perhaps. But consider the alternative. Do we really want to return to the Stone Age because we are 'not living in natural time?' Do we really want to endure hardship, poverty, starvation, disease and the likes because some people believe this is not the way we are supposed to live?  Of course not. Therefore: "Babylon". We support the system. We are the system. We live the system. This is what we want. No matter the cost, Zion must fall. BABYLON WILL RISE."Babylon" strays from the normal industrial path. While maintaining the harshness of previous releases, TPROE mix dubstep, EBM, dancehall, rhythmic industrial, urban, drum'n'bass, techno, and even more funk into an explosive cocktail of dark rhythmic funk-industrial. Straight up four-to-the-floor technoid industrial, harsh dancehall, industrial breakbeat, dub-noise-step, violent drum'n'bass; it is all there! Eleven songs, 50 minutes, of pure concentrated progressive industrial. The bomb.Tue, 27 Oct 2009 00:00:00 +0000Mono-Amine - Like a Machine (CD)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23826"Like a Machine" is a distorted, hard-driving, layered, uplifting, intense and adventurous mind-fucking set of tracks with the original MONO-AMINE sound. The tracks were on the one hand born out of the discontent that average human behavior has grown to the level of a bunch of fucking sheep, and that our systems goals are just about retaining power and forcing the people to think like preprogrammed machines. On the other hand, "Like a Machine" is intended to make you dance, lose your mind and bring some joy to the minds of the few who appreciate this kind of electronic warfare. If you want your music to be hard-driving, adventurous, uplifting and intense, you will need to get this new MONO-AMINE album!Includes the underground hit songs "Economics Maintain This Situation" and "If I Started..." previously released on vinyl through DarkforceNL Records.Tue, 27 Oct 2009 00:00:00 +0000David Sylvian - Sleepwalkers (CD Digipak)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23825In the 00s, DAVID SYLVIAN produced two of his strongest and most solitary statements, "Blemish" and "Manafon". But those records don't tell the whole story. In the same period, Sylvian created a more playful body of work: a series of collaborations and side projects with leading talents of pop and improv, electronic and contemporary classical music. The best of these recordings are gathered here on "Sleepwalkers", meticulously sequenced and remixed: the fruits of one-off meetings and lifelong partnerships, they jump from bliss to intrigue, romance to sensuality, as arch-experiments lead into the lushest pop.The single "World Citizen (I Won't Be Disappointed)", written with RYUICHI SAKAMOTO, is a sublime example, with an impeccable melody and lyrics warmed by Sylvian's gorgeous tenor. Sylvian has worked with Sakamoto for close to three decades. By contrast, on "Pure Genius", a collaboration with Chris Vrenna aka TWEAKER, he sounds like he's walked into a heist flick, singing the part of a delusional, dangerous bedroom genius. As Sylvian explains, tracks like this "give me a chance to write in a way that's completely non-personal, playful. It's an exercise of some kind, working within the parameters of a given assignment."Sylvian's longest-running partnership is with his brother, drummer and electronics artist STEVE JANSEN, and two of their projects find their way here: the NINE HORSES trio with BURNT FRIEDMAN, and Jansen's debut album (and Samadhisound release) "Slope".  "Sleepwalkers" also spotlights the innovators who contributed to "Manafon" and "Blemish". CHRISTIAN FENNESZ hangs a crackling, shimmering curtain behind the vocal on "Transit", matching his signature mass of sui generis sounds to Sylvian's stately performance, and the title track began with an instrumental handed to Sylvian by MARTIN BRANDLMAYR of POLWECHSEL, soon after the first recording session for "Manafon". Spite crackles in the gaps between the percussion, and onkyo artists TOSHIMARU NAKAMURA and SACHIKO M set the stage for the scathing lyrics in the chorus.Like 2000's "Everything and Nothing", "Sleepwalkers" is a retrospective of the past decade – but it's also an eye-opening complement to his solo releases. As Sylvian explains, "Some collaborations seem to be a one-off exchange but you can never be too certain of that fact. Others have been long term. Ryuichi comes to mind as, of course, does Steve. And then there's others with whom you hope to continue working as you feel you've barely scratched the surface. Other times offers come out of the blue, welcome, inspired. Regardless, it's wonderful to have so many possibilities to juggle with. Each collaboration seems timely. It's as if there's a rightness to the exchange at a given moment in time."Mon, 27 Sep 2010 00:00:00 +0100Goldfrapp - Believer (CD)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23824After spending much of June and July abroad/on tour (playing shows in the USA, Russia, Australia, Germany, Portugal and Spain), GOLDFRAPP return to the UK for live performances at the V2010 (August 21st/22nd) and L.E.D.

The record enlists the help of techno wizards MARK KNIGHT and D. RAMIREZ ("Always Loved a Film", "Between Stars") plus a whole cast of brilliant and like-minded producers from across the spectrum of modern dance music, each adding personal touches to the band's original material. Enter Welsh drum'n'bass artist HIGH CONTRAST ("Scribble", "Moon in Water"), four-time Grammy winner DUBFIRE ("Bird 1", "Grace"), Bristol-based dubstep producers APPLEBLIM and AL TOURETTES ("Hamburg Hotel"), plus long term UNDERWORLD team member DARREN PRICE ("Between Stars").The question is, with such a glittering cast of extras, how does it actually sound?  From the first undulating pulses of submariner bass, the first vocals - soft like a whisper in the ear - and the first fizz of hi-hats that force along the pace, the sound is unmistakably UNDERWORLD. Electronics wrapped effortlessly around songs; streams of consciousness lyrics that form indelible images; a perfectly balanced mix of melody and rhythm. UNDERWORLD's sixth studio album is a thundering return to form, although it's fair to say that the band responsible have never really been below par. Like the bomb on the Icarus II in Sunshine, this new process of working had the effect of not so much reigniting a creativity within the band as exploding it into myriad new fragments. And through all of this, brilliantly and uniquely, it sounds just like UNDERWORLD.So, thirty years in and by working with a series of handpicked co-conspirators you make the best album of your career? It was a long shot, but for UNDERWORLD in 2010, maybe playing away was just the trick.  This just leaves the question of who they'll get into bed with next time.

Often referred to as the 'German SKINNY PUPPY', this band has certainly set the standard in the EBM/electro world - a true force in innovation and catchy dance songs! Album releases such as "Human Desolation", "Drawback" and "Meshwork" became true collector's items and are essential to the collection of any electro/EBM enthusiast!With the single "Seventeen" and their come back album "Inner Zone Journey" Svren Ni-Arb and Raive Yarx returned after a musical break of almost fifteen years. Re-releases of cult hits such as "Abattoir", "Cenotaph" and "Facer" paved the way for a great comeback!  In addition, with the cooperation of the German concert agency INMOVE, Infacted Recordings managed to get the band together for a unique re-union concert at this year's famous Wave Gotik Treffen festival in Leipzig.

A few years later, Reagan Jones (singer) hooked up with new member Andrew Sega (music), and started a whole new chapter in the band's history. Adding some guitars to the mix, and taking the production in a more experimentally electronic direction, IRIS released "Awakening" in 2003. It was memorably organic, powerful, and really showcased Reagan's strong songwriting. This would also be the first Iris release on Andrew's new label, Diffusion Records.The success of this record led to a European release deal with Infacted Recordings, a full tour of Germany and Switzerland, and festival dates in Sweden and the UK. Followed in 2005 by "Wrath", rock-oriented songs collided with electronic beats and evocative, atmospheric soundscapes. The first single, "Appetite" went to number 1 on mainstream radio in Poland, and the band set off again for more European shows, festivals in Moscow and London, and tourdates with electro-pop luminaries such as DE/VISION and MESH.In 2010 IRIS now finally present their fourth official studio album, and make no mistake, it is yet another masterpiece in electronic pop! Nine MASSIVE songs – actually: HYMNS!  By the way...

ZODIAC MINDWARP & THE LOVE REACTION will are entering a new decade of heavy dirty street rock'n'roll and they declare "We Are Volsung". In a musical world of hairspray and spandex, two long-haired leather clad rockers were introduced to each other by their 'exotic dancer' girlfriends. One, a graphic artist and poet, the other a budding philosopher. They immediately dropped everything, joined forces and created the dirtiest, wildest band of all time. One year later, they signed to Polygram, and released, first the ground-breaking "High Priest of Love" EP, and subsequently the "Tattooed Beat Messiah" album, containing the well-received single "Prime Mover". Overnight they accidentally changed the look of all the rock bands of the time from the obligatory spandex, eye liner and tinsel, to rough biker jackets, engineer boots and goatee beards. MÖTLEY CRÜE declared them to be their favourite band and immediately restyled themselves for the "Girls, Girls, Girls" record. ZMATLR grew in notoriety, touring the America and then the world, co-headlining arenas and theatres with GUNS'N'Roses and finding themselves at home playing festivals and baseball stadiums with IRON MAIDEN. After attending a ZMATLR concert at Hammersmith Odean and giving it his seal of approval, ALICE COOPER then recorded the ZODIAC MINDWARP-penned "Feed My Frankenstein", later performed in the film "Wayne's World". The critical acclaim of ZMATLR then caused rare misfortune, when they lost their young naive bass player to the lures of THE CULT. The band soldiered on regardless. Sometime later, in Paris, Slam Thunderhide, their drummer decided to put down his sticks to become a GoGo dancer in Vancouver. Present day: With "The Cat" shaking the Earth on Drums and "Jack Shitt" rumbling the low frequencies, they ride again, honing their skills playing for the Viking descendants in Scandinavia. From these tough, manly ordeals, a new set of recordings have been forged. "We Are Volsung" is the result, a celebration in the Norse tradition. Ten songs of pure unadulterated rock.Mon, 27 Sep 2010 00:00:00 +0100Prometheus Burning - Displacement Disorder (Limited 2CD Box Set)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23799Nearly two years after their well received Crunch Pod release "Plague Called huMANity", the female fronted electro-industrial duo PROMETHEUS BURNING return to the spotlight with their latest DOUBLE disk opus "Displacement Disorder"."Displacement Disorder" is a powerfully diverse and versatile album, blurring the line between electronic genres and pumping fresh blood into the industrial scene.

They have always flouted musical and social conventions, rather going after their own vision and dancing to the beat of their own particular drum. This album is the distilled essence of what makes this band tick.  It is a journey through the ideas and motivations of the band and takes the listener to some very dark places indeed. In fact, at times, “the veil” between the worlds is somewhat thin and one wonders if the music is the magical catalyst that enables the transformation of our world to another ...... it’s 3am, a souls’ midnight and the void of darkness and beyond is at its closest and is indeed “Unquiet”.Limited to 1,000 copies.

These new tracks offer not only the same radical departure from more complex song arrangements as on the previous album but this time also a departure from the use of acoustic guitar. Instead the instrument chosen to accompany Douglas Pearce's voice is the piano, played by Miro Snejder. Some might be tempted to say that this is a new direction for DEATH IN JUNE yet we have to disagree, as for almost 30 years this has been a ship that has maintained its course against all odds.This edition of the single is limited to 880 numbered copies and comes pressed on pink vinyl and housed on a cover with embossed lettering and a debossed foilblock Whiphand logo.

Molé was also the first installment of Jourgensen's political trilogy of terror toward the Bush administration and the Gulf War. As much as Molé's title was a reference to LED ZEPPELIN's "Houses of the Holy" and Jourgensen's favorite Mexican sauce, it was surely no Southwestern rock'n'roll cookbook. "MiXXXes of the Molé", however, serves to pick up where Molé left off – each re-recorded, re-mixxxed and re-mastered track spicier than the last! The fifth in a series of 13th Planet remix genre-bending 'trance metal' attacks, "MiXXXes of The Molé" is destined for dancefloors all over the world with its punchy metal grooves and way-too-heavy bass lines determined to mosh with the best of solar plexus in the country!Mon, 23 Aug 2010 00:00:00 +0100Zero Defects - Duracell (Limited CD)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23774Here now are the details for the next 'Classics' release from Infacted: the Hamburg-based two-man project ZERO DEFECTS once made their way through the "Electronic Youth" compilation series straight to a label deal with ZOTH OMMOG!

The Toronto-based synth rock band create a captivating hybrid of 80s electronica and aggressive guitars, curiously fused with cinematically dark melodic progressions. With the new album entitled "Pins and Needles", THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE further refine the unique sound explored on their highly-acclaimed previous albums "Walking with Strangers", "Violet", and the classic debut "Nothing and Nowhere". From the opening notes of the lead track "In the Dark" to the closing chimes of "Secret", it is evident that "Pins and Needles" is THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE at their collective best. The interplay of driving guitar and rhythm sections, the captivating vocals and atmospheric keyboards envelop the listener. "Pins and Needles", mixed by David Ogilvie (producer of SKINNY PUPPY, MARILYN MANSON, KILLING JOKE), promises to be a harder and darker experience than all previous albums, contrasted by the shining melodic vocals of lead singer Chibi.Mon, 20 Sep 2010 00:00:00 +0100Spiritual Front - Rotten Roma Casino Collect's Set (T-shirt L) (Limited CD+DVD digipak + T-Shirt)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23743The 'Armageddon Gigolo' is back: on the brand new album "Rotten Roma Casino" the charismatic Italian heartbreaker Simone Salvatore's band once again define that which they have shaped like no other: 'suicide pop'. That is to say melancholy melodies, stirring guitar chords, emotional vocals and yearning string passages, but also solid-groove beats and macabre phrases.Just as the recipe which singled-handedly defined the genre was fully finalised on "Armageddon Gigolo", "Rotten Roma Casino" goes a decisive step further. SPIRITUAL FRONT once more summoned together the proven ensemble featuring chamber musicians associated with ENNIO MORRICONE and created a whole series of musical gems which you can't get out of your head after just a single hearing. As per the title, it's about Rome – a metaphorical, decadent Rome however, a parallel to the Roma of Fellini, full of wonder, monstrosities and passions. The album pays homage to the orgiastic, wild and ambiguous, particularly on the intense videoclips that are featured on the accompanying bonus DVD, conjuring up the immortal spirit of Rainer Werner Fassbinder. The doleful "Sad Almost a Winner" orientates itself towards his homoerotic melodrama "Fox and his Friends", while the clip for "Darkroom Friendship" pays homage to the promiscuous bisexual passion of frontman Salvatori.Shimmering skin in the twilight – 'a friendship made of flesh and lust'. Salvatori acknowledges that without Fassbinder's controversial 'sex and death' drama "Querelle", he probably wouldn't have founded SPIRITUAL FRONT. To all this are added harmonies which seem to derive from the legendary creators of film music, Ennio Morricone and Nino Rota. SPIRITUAL FRONT carry their unmistakeable Italian spirit into the post-modern, consciously shaking off their underground roots in order to invent their own unique variety of morbid folk-pop which blends indie rock, acoustic chords and tango into a new, intense and above all heartrending, genuine mixture. In a varied sequence of romantic, vibrant, cynical, sad and occasionally gruesome ballads, we dive into the their incomparable world."Rotten Roma Casino" is fresh and original but at the same time a mature and majestic musical work, without compromise yet catchy; slightly sweet yet disturbing. In any case a worthy redemption of the promise which "Armageddon Gigolo" once gave. Suicide pop in its purest form...This collector's set includes the CD+DVD digipak, plus a wonderful t-shirt.  The front features a skull and colosseum collage, and the slogan "Nihilist Suicide Pop" is printed on the reverse.  Available in sizes S, M, L, XL, XXL and XXXL.Fri, 24 Sep 2010 00:00:00 +0100Spiritual Front - Rotten Roma Casino (Limited CD+DVD Digipak)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23740The 'Armageddon Gigolo' is back: on the brand new album "Rotten Roma Casino" the charismatic Italian heartbreaker Simone Salvatore's band once again define that which they have shaped like no other: 'suicide pop'.

The reason for this is simple: ROME's "Berlin" MCD is a re-release and Trisol did not want to push you to buy the complete set when all you might want is the t-shirt. This t-shirt is a little more expensive than previous t-shirts from Trisol, but the price reflects a higher quality of product. Trisol chose the best there is on the market. This is not your average black T-shirt, but a dark brown one with light brown print. Trisol believes this rather nostalgic look fits ROME's debut MCD perfectly. To top it off, the ROME logo on the front is made in an elaborate 3D-print. The front of the shirt also bears the slogan "DIES IST KEINE RICHTUNG - NUR REINE BEWEGUNG" (this is no direction – just pure movement), and on the reverse "BEWEGUNG ENTSTEHT DURCH HALTUNG" (the source of movement is composure). Available in sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL.Fri, 24 Sep 2010 00:00:00 +0100Rome - Berlin Collector's Set (T-Shirt L) (Limited MCD Digipak + T-Shirt)http://www.musicnonstop.co.uk/product-view.php?productid=23731This surprising new stars on the apocalyptic folk scene sprout from the punk and sing-songwriter genres, and have now combined these attitudes with a sombre and experimental martial folk influcent to give a strong personal imprint. ROME are about emotive songs that are both catchy and disturbed. These songs awaken memories of love and death, with reoccurring themes of despair and loss, guilt and grief, might and war. With the cynical opening line "Once we learned to speak we learned to fail", the band set a grand colour to this exquisite candy piece of six exclusive songs.This much demanded re-release of "Berlin" comes in a very appealing digipak.

ROME are about emotive songs that are both catchy and disturbed. These songs awaken memories of love and death, with reoccurring themes of despair and loss, guilt and grief, might and war. With the cynical opening line "Once we learned to speak we learned to fail", the band set a grand colour to this exquisite candy piece of six exclusive songs.This much demanded re-release of "Berlin" comes in a very appealing digipak.

The most danceable resistance of all times.September 2010: thirteen months later, the artful electro architects lift "Waiting To Be Born", one of the most emotional songs from "Random Is Resistance", thereby adding more fuel to the fire of their heated campaign against uniform thinking and the global sellout of identity.Already a capital hymn lacking neither forceful beats nor elegiac melodies in its original version, the track has been carefully reworked resulting in nothing less than a futurepop classic for eternity!There are also three exclusive tracks only available on this EP which elevate "Waiting To Be Born" far above the standard of an in itself worthy remix collection: a cover version of "A Strange Kind of Love", bowing deeply to PETER MURPHY's original despite a thoroughly independent club attitude; the intensely pulsating "All These Moments"; and the moving ballad "Wasted Wings".

The dark corridors of your mind will release its fears and anxiety. The subconscious will unfold into the obscure unknown, experiencing ominous desolation, and the whispering echoes of distant nocturnal voices. The droning sound of ancient machines and ghostly clicks of clock gears, provide a prophetic lullaby to your personal dream sphere.
