Combat Voice, the Belgian Cold EBM duo created in 2010 by Richard G. and Bernard F., have chosen Peek-a-boo to present their brand new song and video: "The Red Line". The song was played for the first time Live in Berlin on 14th April 2012 during the evening Common Roots Volume IV and will be on the band's next album, "Chaotic Universe", due to be released under the Italian label EK Product on January 18th, 2013. It will be their second album, following "The Last Flow", which was released in 2011.
The song starts with a great sample from Chaplin's The Great Dictator:
"Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural men
Machine men with machine minds and machine hearts
You are not machines, you are not cattle
You are men!"
The song is a pure EBM song which is reminiscent or D.A.F. or Front 242, with a fast beat and very efficient synth programming. The clip was shot in an old, decaying industrial site. The lyrics deal with the boundaries not to be exceeded to let others in peace. The red line represents the virtual limit that should not be crossed.
The winners of the She Wants Revenge contest are Cécile Clément and Eliane Van Hoorick. They have both received a free ticket for the concert. A big thank you to all those who participated!
She Wants Revenge will play at the Zappa in Antwerp on Thursday June 21st. Buy your tickets in advance at http://www.bodybeats.be/ and support our scene!
After few years of silence, The Breath of Life have announced the release of their newly awaited album "Whispering fields". With this 8th opus, this Belgian band brings us back into their own specific realm full of emotion. After more than 25 years of existence, the magical balance between delicacy and power of their music is once again unveiled and enhanced by the addition of a drummer. A beautiful mixture between splendid violins, an ethereal voice, strong guitars and bass, waves of keyboards and drums carress the spirits from their dark underground world. This new album consist of 13 recorded tracks including special bonus versions of their classic song "Nasty cloud".
