The ultimate Hocico-best-of-release - The Spell Of The Spider out on July 28th
Hocico - The Spell Of The Spider
20 years of love & hate – still going strong after 2 hot-blooded decades on Out Of Line Music, the Mexican hard-electro-pioneers Hocico are now finally getting a long overdue special “best of” release! There are few groups that can claim to have played a major role in shaping an entire genre, but Erk Aicrag and Racso Agroyam, better known as Hocico, did just that. The duo not only put Mexico on the map for an entire scene (...previously only associated with tequila and sombreros), but also managed to become a game changer for the dark side of electronic music with a new blend of hard beats, unbridled anger, aggressive shouts and creative sonic wizardry. Appearing virtually out of nowhere, this unique and fresh sound hit us like a fist straight into our collective gut, inspiring a plethora of other musicians in the whole world and quickly conquering scene-related clubs and discos around the globe. “The Spell Of The Spider” brings together highlights, hits, favorites and rarities from more than 2 decades, compiled and carefully remastered by the band. The iconic front artwork was created by renowned US-photo-artist Thomas G. Anderson (Dark Art by Thomas G. Anderson Photography who also did covers for Asking Alexandria and more.) When into the hard side of electro, Hocico is one of the bands that you can't afford to miss. “The Spell Of The Spider” is a celebration of this seminal group and an ideal starting point for newcomers, a fulfilling sonic journey for fans and collectors and a must-own for any electrohead. The ultimate Hocico-best-of-release is also released as a limited red double vinyl + CD in a lavish gatefold sleeve and as a deluxe double CD in a Digipak with the bonus disc “The Dark Side of The Spider”, containing rare and deleted songs and compilation tracks. For diehards, there is also a limited 3-CD-fan-set in a classy Digipak-longbox which also contains the exclusive EP “Spider Bites”, featuring a collection of new and unreleased songs.
Belgian Dark Electro project MILDREDA as support for COVENANT - Tonight 30.06 - Antwerp - B
After a hiatus of more than 5 years the Swedish Electro band Covenant returns to Belgium to present their latest and globally critically acclaimed album ‘The Blinding Dark’. The last time they played in Belgium was at the Rewind Festival (RIP) at De Vooruit, Ghent.
This time they are invited by the Antwerp based organization BodyBeats Productions, to play at one of BodyBeats regular venue partners Zappa, Friday June 30th.
Supporting Covenant on this night is the Belgian Dark Electro project of Jan Dewulf, Mildreda.
In the early 90s Jan Dewulf started making electronic music. Named after a Flemish saint, Mildreda was a dark electro project following the Belgian tradition of bands like The Klinik. Starting from scratch, Mildreda became the soundtrack of Jan's adventures in dark electroland. Earlier this year Jan rebooted Mildreda with the release of the new critically acclaimed album 'Cowards' and stunning come-back show supporting Skinny Puppy.
Like the tradition demands DJ BORG will spin some danceable weird shit at the after-show party!

KMFDM RELEASED 5 TRACK EP “YEAH !” NEW STUDIO ALBUM AUGUST 2017 AND ANNOUNCE EUROPEAN, UK AND US TOURDATES.
KMFDM’s “YEAH!”, a 5-track EP of brand-new songs, remixes was released on June 23rd, 2017 on earMUSIC as CD digipak and Digital. The EP is followed by the band’s new studio album in August.
“YEAH !” features two brand new songs:
“HELL YEAH” an instant KMFDM “classic” with its ultra-heavy beat and Sascha Konietzko’s trademark cynical lyrics and the anthemic Lucia Cifarelli-fronted “FREAK FLAG”, which is included in an edit on this EP. It is a distinctive hymn for outlaws, freaks, mavericks – and all of us indeed. KMFDM also revisited 2002’s ATTAK/RELOAD and created “ATTAK 2017”, a high-octane remixed version of the song. German rock band Lord Of The Lost’s remix of “Hell Yeah” takes the original to a wholly new and surprising direction.
The cover artwork, an iconic piece of art by itself, highlights only a small part of the complete graphic which will be revealed with the album. It was, as almost all of KMFDM’s visual brand, created by Aidan Hughes aka BRUTE!
KMFDM will perform at BRUTAL ASSAULT Festival, CZ, and at M’era Luna, GER, play 6 shows in the UK and then embark on a month-long tour of the United States playing in all major cities as well as headlining Cold Waves Festival in Chicago.

A transsexual dwarf, a dominatrix and a human pig abuse Singer Mauro B from Psycho-Punk band Diane Grace
Diane Grace announces debut EP - Panic !!! - in style.
The Belgian psychopunk band Diane Grace announces their debut-ep Panic !!! with a rather extreme video clip. In this video, a transsexual dwarf, a dominatrix and a human pig abuse singer Mauro B. In the end, Mauro B. dies by an overdose of rotten tomatoes.
The clip was filmed in the Swamp Hotel near Mechelen.
Director / cameraman Kris Verdonck escaped certain death as he almost fell into a three-metre deep well which he failed to notice while holding his camera.
The EP Panic will be released in September 2017.
Een Trans-dwerg, a dominatrix en een varken mishandelen zanger Mauro B.
Diane Grace kondigt debuut-ep Panic !!! in stijl aan.
De Belgische psychopunkgroep Diane Grace kondigt haar debuut-ep Panic !!! aan met een wel zeer extreme clip. Daarin mishandelen een transseksuele dwerg, een dominatrix en een menselijk varken zanger Mauro B. Uiteindelijk sterft B. aan een overdosis rotte tomaten.
De clip is gedraaid in het Swamp Hotel bij Mechelen.
Bijna sneuvelde ook regisseur/cameraman Kris Verdonck, toen hij ternauwernood kon ontsnappen uit een drie meter diepe put die hij niet had opgemerkt tijden het filmen.
De EP Panic komt uit in september 2017.
Belgian Hard-Electro-pioneers Suicide Commando return with their darkest and most intense effort to date. „Forest Of The Impaled“ will be released as a regular album CD, deluxe double disc, 2LP+CD and as a limited 4CD-fan-set.
On his new album, Suicide-Commando-mastermind Johan van Roy takes us to the darkest part of the human psyche and allows us to partake in the struggle with the demons that have been plagueing him all his life. Instead of trying to up the ante on BPM-counts or revelling in cheap provocation, Suicide Commando go for maximum intensity on „Forest Of The Impaled“, creating a dark beast of an album that aims directly for the gut. A juggernaut of beats, bass, sinister soundscapes and raging shouts, the album whole-heartedly embraces the band's past, yet adds multi-faceted layers and a sense of urgency and maturity that elevates it far beyond genre standards. Hard, relentless and often very personal, Suicide Commando keep the Hard-Electro-genre alive and kicking with one of their finest efforts to date. „Forest Of The Impaled“ is also available on 180g double vinyl + CD in a lavish gatefold sleeve, as a deluxe double CD version (including an exclusive remix album) in Digipak and as a limited 4CD fan box, including the double CD, plus an exclusive tribute album (other bands providing their own interpretation of some of Suicide Commando's finest songs) and the exclusive MCD “The Devil.” Prepare to enter a world of pain... the pain that you like!
