Schonwald is a duo from Italy
Schonwald is all about atmospheres: hypnotic minimalist mood and a noise inclination with echoes of Suicide, New Order, The Cure, mingling with synth melodies straight from the '80.
A chilling and hopelessly bleak drum-machine rhythm sets the tone, parting the waves of rippling darkness into a massive surge of inescapable, hushed-yet-crushing electronic melancholia. European post punk at it’s finest, Alessandra and Luca of Schonwald create a pulsing, black-lit atmospheric electronic vibration so cold, hypnotic, and simple, it’s perfect for our endlessly frozen world.

"...More convincing than Linkin Park, more commercial than NIN; The Rabid Whole are the soundtrack to the future." -UberRock.co.uk Delivering 21st century, high-energy, electro-alternative rock, The Rabid Whole gives a refreshing take on a familiar sound.
Their live act has been described by Lithium Magazine as: "painting great futuristic scenery with an eerie atmosphere...instantly causes the listener to get lost in the music and whisked away on a surreal sci-fi trip." The highly anticipated follow-up to 2012's critically acclaimed 'Refuge', the new release, 'Problems', includes credits from music industry heavy-hitters Dave 'Rave' Ogilvie (Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson), Noah Mintz (Death From Above 1979, Danko Jones), and Karl Schubach (Misery Signals). "After a year of all kinds of monumental bullshit, we're finally ready to release the aptly titled, 'Problems'. We've gone to musical places where we haven't gone before and can't wait for our fans to hear it. I feel this is some of our strongest/deepest material to date." -Andreas Weiss [The Rabid Whole] The Rabid Whole have toured across the USA & Canada several times, played SXSW, NXNE, CMW, Indieweek, and Cold Waves festivals, as well as shared the stage with recognized national/international acts Dope Stars Inc, The Birthday Massacre, Econoline Crush, Hinder, Apoptygma Berzerk, Bile, to name just a few.
On 26th November E One will release The Expendables 3 on both DVD and Blu-ray
Barney augments his team with new blood for a personal battle: to take down Conrad Stonebanks, the Expendables co-founder and notorious arms trader who is hell bent on wiping out Barney and every single one of his associates.
Director: Patrick Hughes
Stars: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li
Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson), who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill... or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables -- but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables' most personal battle yet.
Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) en de rest van het team komen oog in oog te staan met Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson), die jaren geleden samen met Barney The Expendables oprichtte. Stonebanks werd vervolgens een meedogenloze wapenhandelaar en iemand die Barney gedwongen was om te vermoorden. Stonebanks, die de dood ooit al eens in de ogen gezien heeft, heeft nu als missie om The Expendables uit te schakelen, maar Barney heeft andere plannen. Barney beslist dat hij oud bloed met nieuw bloed moet mengen en komt opdraven met een nieuw tijdperk van Expendables teamleden. Hij gaat op zoek naar personen die jonger en sneller zijn. De laatste missie wordt een botsing van de klassieke old-school stijl versus hightech expertise in de meeste persoonlijke strijd van The Expendables aller tijden.
Regie: Patrick Hughes
Cast: Jason Statham, Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li, Antonio Banderas, Wesley Snipes, Mel Gibson, Dolph Lundgren, Harrison Ford, Arnold Schwarzenegger
