First out from the new album RISE BEFORE THE FALL is the official video for the track CONTINUUM starring Ober and G-Nome in a dark retro-futuristic fashion that sets the ambience and theme for the new album.
It's the end of the year and this means not only the annual visit from an old man with a white beard who gives the kids some toys, but there's also the annual BIM Festival which takes place on the 14th and 15th December at Trix (as usual) in Antwerp.
Support your local scene, buy tickets at advance....well, you know the drill...just do it as it's important independent music (and especially the black scene) stays alive.
Peek A Boo will present you from now on (on an almost daily base) the bands and their music.
We kick off with True Zebra, a band which I once described as Nine Inch Nails. Yeah, we know....10.000 bands do sound like Trent's industrial alter ego, but True Zebra (not to be confused with Red Zebra) are special.
Well, listen to Kevin's music yourself....
Who you say? Well, some musicfans are already devoted to their postpunksound but in case you haven't heard them so far: give these boys a change!
Something like Gang Of Four mixed with a raw Editors-sound and if you can't make anything of this, discover them on Brussels as they will be the headliner of the newest edition of Fantastique.Nights.

No one does brooding dark electropop like the Germans. I-M-R (the musical continuationof In My Rosary) have been at the forefront of this movement since the1990s with a cache of critically acclaimed albums that have earned them a loyal cult following all over the world. I-M-R is the creation of prolific singer, songwriter and producer Ralf Jesek (Vocals,various Instruments). For this remodelled edition of I-M-R Ralf has been joined by musicians who he had previously only worked With in live performance.
Their contributions have invested the intimate songs with a bitter-sweet melancholy that recalls Joy Division and The Cure at their most alluring and intense. I-W-R is composed by Ralf with friends Martin von Arndt (Keyboards, Sax, backing Vocals), a best-selling novelist and a founding member of legendary Avantgarde/Goth/Industrialband Printed at Bismarck’s Death and the two In My Rosary live-members Holger Diener (guitars) and Hansi Huenig (Keyboards).
‘Letters from the Paper Garden’ comes with an impressive list of international guests: In addition to SARA NOXX and STAN I. & M.S. (STILLIFE), with whom Ralf has already worked together on the last In My Rosary album "Retro", the guest list also includes ELENA ALICE FOSSI (SPECTRA PARIS/ KIRLIAN CAMERA), ISABELLE DEKEYSER (THE BREATH OF LIFE), the viola player DORIS KRAUSSE, the accordion player ANNETTE KOSAKOWSKI, as well as RobDVA (IT) and ALLES of the Italian Dark electro project INTO NOWHERE. And as a very special treat NICOLE RELLUM and KAI KAMPMANN, who formerly formed DERRIERE LE MIROIR together with Ralf are also welcome guests on this great album
