Promised Land, the newest movie by Gus Van Sant starring Matt Damon, John Krasinski and Frances McDormand is released by A-Film from 26th November on.
This acclaimed masterpiece is available on both dvd and Blu-ray.
Synopsis: Corporate salesman Steve Butler (Damon) arrives in a rural town with his sales partner, Sue Thomason (McDormand). With the town having been hit hard by the economic decline of recent years, the two outsiders see the local citizens as likely to accept their company's offer, for drilling rights to their properties, as much-needed relief. What seems like an easy job for the duo becomes complicated by the objection of a respected schoolteacher (Holbrook) with support from a grassroots campaign led by another man (Krasinski) who counters Steve both personally and professionally.

HANDS welcomes a catchpenny addition to its band roster: AMBASSADOR21, the Belarusian duo who have brought their digital hardcore sound to electronic and industrial festivals worldwide and look back at a plethora of releases since the turn of the century.
"X" is meant to tie up loose ends, with nine unreleased and seven compilation tracks from the period of 2005-2012 showcasing their arsenal of sound: Hard electronics, samples, heavy guitars and Natasha?s sandpaper vocals are the ingredients of this sonic Molotov cocktail!
In May this year, the Swedish post-punk / shoegaze band Principe Valiente, left the door to their new album a little ajar, allowing a glimpse of the collaboration with producer Niklas Björklund and star producer Ed Buller, who was responsible for mixing and mastering their first single "Take Me With You". "She Never Returned" is now the second single of this collaboration, proving that the band continues to carve out their own path with excellent consistency.
Without sinking into depression, Principe Valiente combine their stylish melancholy with aesthetic sadness once again, offering a loyal companion for the upcoming stormy autumn days and dark winter nights. "She Never Returned" will be available for download on 25.10.2013 through all major online stores and the band's Bandcamp page.
The next album is expected to come out in spring 2014.
Somewhere in the rainy, misty forests of the Pacific Northwest of America, three ladies have the unlikely task of sewing together the packaging for a new album by :zoviet*france:.
:zoviet*france: are releasing ‘The Tables Are Turning’ on compact disc and double LP through Soleilmoon Recordings. The music was composed as the soundtrack to ‘Designer Body’, a dance that toured England from 2008 to 2009. The work explores the transformational relationship between humans and the clothing they wear. Seven dancers, performing on continuously rotating plinths, slowly remove layers of their costumes, revealing the sensuous nude bodies beneath. The music accompanying the dancers is by turns dense and moody, then lyrical and soaring, underlining the mounting vulnerability of the dancers as they undress.
Both formats (CD and double LP) are presented in a deluxe dual-layer green satin bag with fold-over flap. The letters ‘ZF’ are hand-stitched into the flap in white thread, and a two-sided color insert printed on sturdy cardstock completes the package. There are 400 LPs and 600 compact discs in the first edition. The LP, with music on three of the four sides of the records, will go out of print when the initial pressing sells out.
