The dark scene in Mexico is as many-faceted as the country itself.
For those among my readers always looking for interesting new stuff, I can recommend "Duo Reflectus", a great Synthpop project from Mexico City!
There's also a new EP planned for August and afterwards some shows in Mexico D.F.!

From 30th June on, Warner will release American Sniper on both DVD and Blu-ray.
Director:Clint Eastwood
Stars:Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller, Kyle Gallner
Chris Kyle was nothing more than a Texan man who wanted to become a cowboy, but in his thirties he found out that maybe his life needed something different, something where he could express his real talent, something that could help America in its fight against terrorism. So he joined the SEALs in order to become a sniper. After marrying, Kyle and the other members of the team are called for their first tour of Iraq. Kyle's struggle isn't with his missions, but about his relationship with the reality of the war and, once returned at home, how he manages to handle it with his urban life, his wife and kids.
"The Legend", "The Devil", het zijn slechts enkele van de namen die in het Amerikaanse leger rechtstreeks met Chris Kyle verbonden zijn. In American Sniper vertelt Clint Eastwood het aangrijpende levensverhaal van de dodelijkste scherpschutter uit de Amerikaanse geschiedenis. Het resultaat is een intense film geworden, waarin een fenomenale Bradley Cooper de rol van zijn leven vertolkt. De acteur werd dan ook volkomen terecht genomineerd voor een Oscar® in de categorie Beste Acteur.
American Sniper, bekroond met een Oscar®, is vanaf 30 juni beschikbaar op Blu-ray™, DVD en Video on Demand. De film is ook beschikbaar als Digital Download.
SYNOPSIS
'American Sniper' is gebaseerd op de memoires van Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, geschreven door Scott McEwen en Jim DeFelice. Kyle is de dodelijkste schutter aller tijden en wordt door zijn vijanden "de duivel" genoemd. Van 1999 tot 2009 vestigde hij een record met de meeste moorden als scherpschutter in de geschiedenis van het Amerikaanse leger. Kyle leerde de fijne kneepjes van het vak al toen hij een kind was en zou een prominente rol gaan spelen in de strijd tegen het terrorisme die na 9/11 van start ging.

“Ader’s project,” Luisa explains, “was a video of him crying. Underneath it just says ‘I’m too sad to tell you.’ And that’s all. People have speculated over what he’s sad about. That it could be the absolute loneliness of all humans and that you can never completely know another person.”
His final project was called ‘Searching For The Miraculous’ - he built a little sailboat, said goodbye to his wife and sailed across the Atlantic. But he never made it and his boat was found several years later in Ireland, washed up.”

Previously Lulu And The Lampshades, this London based quartet changed course when they accrued a wealth of guitar pedals, a fascination for mind-expanding noise and, following a mis-billing in Paris, a new name: Landshapes.
Setting the agenda with the melodious math-rock of their debut Rambutan, they steered into lustrous, psychedelic new realms on new album Heyoon, a sound that formed following a fortnight in a cottage in the woods of Cornwall in September 2014.
“Something about all that fresh air, sea, and woods and fire manifested in something much darker and much more menacing than anything we’d written so far. That’s when it felt like we’d started the album.”
Their thrilling and visceral live performance was captured by recent video ‘Stay’, also taken from Heyoon. The band have recently completed a packed out 3 week residency at London’s Total Refreshment Centre.
Landshapes: climb inside and explore.
Landshapes are: Dan Blackett (drums, vocals), Luisa Gerstein (ukelele, vocals), Heloise Tunstall-Behrens (bass, vocals), Jemma Freeman (guitar, vocals)

PARADISE LOST - Beneath Broken Earth (OFFICIAL VIDEO)
Our new album 'The Plague Within' will be released via CM on June 1st, 2015 in Europe and June 2nd, 2015 in North America!
We have written a very dark, yet melodic album, but this time many songs definitely have a death metal edge, which is something we haven’t done for a long long time in Paradise Lost...
'The Plague Within' is produced and mixed by Jaime Gomez Arellano from Orgone Studios in London (Ghost BC, Ulver, Cathedral, Angel Witch).
The Plague Within, coming June 2015
