With great regret, we have to let you know that, VNV Nation have pulled out of the Alliance of Sound Tour.
Due to a problematic situation, that had unexpectedly worsened in recent weeks, and which was likely to continue doing so, the band and crew deliberated over how to proceed before unanimously coming to the very reluctant decision that the appropriate course of action would be to pull out of the tour.
To all the VNV Nation fans who have bought tickets for this tour, we sincerely apologise for this news, which we know will upset many people. A decision like this is never lightly made and it has pained us greatly to have had to do this. We had been very much looking forward to doing this tour and had planned a great set and show but the situation that had caused us to make this decision had made matters too problematic to continue.
sincerely,
Ronan and Mark
[Added later] P.S. To answer the large number of people who have expressed concern about whether the situation is related to anyone's wellbeing - we can assure you that it is most definitely not health related.
Now out on Homescreen
Die Frau des Polizisten
The story of a young couple who live in a small town with their four-year-old daughter. The husband is so caught up in his work as a policeman that he gradually becomes increasingly alienated from his wife and daughter who become ever closer to one another as they discover the new town. It is only a matter of time before the conflicts within the family manifest themselves.
Director: Philip Gröning
Stars: Alexandra Finder, David Zimmerschied, Pia Kleemann
DIE FRAU DES POLIZISTEN is Philip Grönings opvolger van het enorm succesvolle en gewaardeerde INTO GREAT SILENCE. Net als deze film is DIE FRAU DES POLIZISTEN een waar kunstwerk dat je als kijker moet ondergaan en waarin je jezelf volledig kunt onderdompelen.
Christine is getrouwd met Uwe, een politie agent. Samen met hem en hun dochtertje wonen ze in een klein Duits provinciestadje. Ogenschijnlijk vormen de drie een harmonieus en perfect gelukkig gezinnetje, maar hun dochtertje blijkt het enige cement waarop hun huwelijk is gefundeerd. Voor de buitenwereld verborgen - achter de claustrofobische muren van hun appartementje – blijkt iets kleins al genoeg te zijn om Uwes achterdocht en spanning te laten omslaan tot geweld. DIE FRAU DES POLIZISTEN ontrafelt de duistere kant van liefde, verlangen, macht en schaamte en werd op het Filmfestival van Venetië bekroond met de Special Jury Prize.
Ahead of the release of their ‘Sadako’ EP, Fairchild have unveiled the video for new track ‘Arcadia’.
To create the fun, energetic visual, every frame from the clip was printed onto A4 paper, hand painted and photographed back into the timeline for a stop-motion effect - totalling over 4000 frames. The video was produced by the band’s bassist, Tommy Davies and directed by Turk Lees.
The Queensland outfit’s ‘Sadako’ EP is out on 17th November via Canvas Sounds. The six-track EP was recorded in vocalist Adam Lyons' bedroom before being mixed by Catherine Marks (Foals, Wolf Alice) in London. It follows the band’s debut EP, ‘Burning Feet’.
Over the past eighteen months, Fairchild have been touring through Hong Kong, China and North America, as well as playing Singapore’s Music Matters and Canadian Music Week, refining their live shows. The band also includes Adam’s older brother Nathan Lyons on keys, guitarists Patrick Huerto and Tim Voeten and drummer James Alexander.
The Dark Entries label announces us the release of a remix EP of Psychic TV's classic acid song "Alien Be-In", due for release on January 13th 2015. The remix EP will hold remixes from Fred Giannelli, Silent Servant and John Tejada and the 12" is housed in a metallic silver die-cut sleeve and a neon green label, featuring the psychic skull transformed into an alien cone head by designer Eloise Leigh.
Each copy includes a 2-sided 11x11 square insert with black and white photo of the band from 1988 and liner notes by Fred Giannelli. All songs have been mastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley.
"Alien Be-In" was written in early 1989 on an E-mu Emax Sampler and an Alesis MMT-8 sequencer. Vocal samples were taken from a tape American investigative reporter Don Bolles sent to Genesis. Genesis played a spaced out Echo Violin and the band used 360 degree panning rotation devices. (...)
