Portuguese pioneers Moonspell first brought the dark flames to their native country – and then set the rest of the world aflame with milestones such as Irreligious or Night Eternal. Indeed eleventh studio album Extinct erects another monument to sundowns and those dark hours and lets Fernando Ribeiro`s sombre vocals collide with modern riffing, blackened melodies and operatic grandeur. Always one step ahead of the rest, always resisting all genre boundaries!

Rock`n`roll`s fuel are larger-than-life riffs, unforgettable melodies and the distinct smell of beer cans and the Route 66: at least when your name is The Answer and the Route 66 leads to Northern Ireland! On Raise a little hell (what an understatement!) you get gritty guitar work, smoky vocals – and the spirit of AC/DC and Thin Lizzy is in the air! Twelve soundtrack anthems for your next road trip that don`t give a rat`s ass about trends.

It's no secret that Claus Larsen from Leather Strip is a big Depeche Mode fan (he recorded various Depeche Mode covers for Alfa Matrix for instance under the Klutae and Leather Strip flag) and it's also no secret that he especially adores the production work done by Alan Wilder in the band for what were Depeche Mode's best albums.
Today he announces a vinyl, 'Fools: a tribute to Alan Wilder' holding 4 tracks written by Alan Wilder for Depeche Mode. Included in this vinyl release, which will be released somewhere at the end of April, are the following tracks: 'Fools', 'If you want', 'In your memory (Reminder mix)' and 'Fools (Quiet)'. It's sitll a mystery to us why Wilder didn't write more tunes for Depeche Mode because these were (and still are) real gems when they were released back in time.
