In February 2014, Advance released their long-awaited debut album, Deus Ex Machina on Manchester-based independent label AnalogueTrash Records. Literally translated as ‘God from the machine’; Deus Ex Machina explores themes of a dystopian, post apocalyptic future and of man’s dependence on technology for survival throughout each of the album’s nine tracks.
Recorded, mixed and mastered in 2013 at Philip Morrison Studios in Glasgow and almost three years in production, Advance’s towering debut release is bursting with soaring melodies, anthemic vocal hooks and euphoric breakdowns which is sure to please any discerning fan of alternative electronic or dance music.
Deus Ex Machina is available now in CD and digital formats via AnalogueTrash Records online store, and online via all good digital retailers. Advance are currently planning a number of live shows for the UK and Europe this summer, to promote the release including a UK tour with dark electronic stalwarts Deviant UK and the opening support slot for electropop sensation Ayria - whose track Analog Trash inspired the name of AnalogueTrash' label and events brand.
There’s something out there that kills, and it’s coming for you in Hunting The Legend on DVD from Image Entertainment on 21st July 2014.
In 2008, a deer hunter was mysteriously slaughtered by something in the Alabama woods. Only his rifle, blood and a 16" footprint were left behind... Five years later, his son seeks revenge.
Chris Copeland sets off into the Alabama woods. He’s out to prove the existence of a murderous creature that locals call Bigfoot – or die trying. Everyone has a tale to tell but what Chris and his companions are about to discover is that even if the stories aren’t true, there’s something out there; something merciless, something hungry, and something that kills.
As they become lost in the dense and desolate woods, they smell blood, sense fear and soon discover to their peril that the difference between the hunter and the hunted can be as thin as a strip of flesh.
Hunting The Legend is a Bigfoot horror that will have you shaking in your boots.
The details are;
Box • 2CD • DVD • picture book • posters • postcards • coin • sticker • certificate • 1000 copies
Out on August 2nd, 2014 on Tesco.

After three months of brainstorming, shooting and editing, a few teasers and a crowd-sourcing campaign which brought a lot of very welcome support, we are proud to present "Jitter Room", a short movie created by Lisa Chabbert and the Ciné2000 team, based on the track of the same name by Ruby My Dear, taken from his 2013 "Form" album (adn171).
Do not expect your usual, short, colorful and futuristic breakcore video this time around. The creators of this video took a resolutely different approach for "Jitter Room": shooting in the countryside, on fields and in forests, with a cast made entirely of children, and the whole thing shown in black & white, this eleven-minute long movie is a short film in itself, and not just a video. Showcasing the many emotions and sides of the original track, it follows a precise narrative and tells its story of excitement, violence, despair and humanity.
Interpol will release their brand new, fifth studio album ‘El Pintor’ on September 8, through [PIAS] Co-Op. ‘El Pintor’ is the band’s first album in four years, and sees them completely reinvigorated after a three year break from touring, offering ten incredible new tracks - taut and epic in equal measure.
Recorded at Electric Lady Studios and Atomic Sound in New York City, all songs on ‘El Pintor’ were written and produced by Interpol, with Daniel Kessler playing guitar, Samuel Fogarino on drums, and Paul Banks on vocals, guitars, and taking over bass duties for the first time. The album also features Brandon Curtis (The Secret Machines) playing keyboards on nine songs, Roger Joseph Manning, Jr. (Beck) playing keyboards on “Tidal Wave”, and Rob Moose (Bon Iver) playing violin and viola on "Twice as Hard”. ‘El Pintor’ was mixed by Alan Moulder, and mastered by Greg Calbi.
Described by NME editor Mike Williams as, “one of the most important bands to come out of New York ever”, Interpol recently premiered songs from ‘El Pintor’ for the first time as they headlined the NME Awards tour earlier this year.
The band will return to the UK this June to play The Other Stage at Glastonbury on June 27 and will also be playing a sold out fan show at London’s Electric Ballroom on June 25. On Sunday 6th July they are playing on ROCK WERCHTER.
International highlights include shows at Splendour In The Grass (Aus), Optimus Alive (Portugal), Lollapalooza, FYF and Governor's Ball (USA), Hurricane/Southside (Germany), and a headline set at the second ever ATP Iceland
