Don't Blame Us! Don't say we didn't warn you...
From the very depths of Hell with bestial malevolence Sonic Death bring you a gift of HATE. The album of the century! The last record you'll ever hear before the Earth stands still.
Sonic Death (three pale-faced ghouls arised from malodorous swamps of Saint Petersburg who became one of the most notorious acts in Russian underground scene) blast nasty intensive garage rock with mighty touch of stoner rock and punk attitude where all tendencies have been directed into sinister output, where angry punk energy meets heavy gloomy Sabbathian riffage with some soft melodic intermissions, but just to hit your forehead with a bang again. Weird sense of humor and surreal lyrics complete the sordid picture. This much-maligned record may force you to follow them, whether you like it or not.
Shocking! – Hypnotizing! – Terrifying! It is HATE MACHINE!
Don't Blame Us! Don't say we didn't warn you...
The tape is limited to 50 copies.

We have some exclusive news from the Kirlian Camera-front, and it all has to do with Spectra*Paris.
A new album and singles have been produced by Elena Alice Fossi (Kirlian Camera/Alice Neve Fox/Stalingrad Valkyrie)+Angelo Bergamini (Kirlian Camera-Division KPax/Stalingrad Walkyrie/Uranium USSR 1972) + John Fryer (Depeche Mode/Nine Inch Nails/This Mortal Coil-Black Needle Noise producer).
Everything has radically changed in the band as well, which is no longer an all-female team. “STAR BUBBLES” is the single, ready to be launched, while the album, ready as well, is “RETROMACHINE BETTY”.
A possible SPECTRA*paris second single might be “ALICE (GEISTERSTERNE)”. Such works might see the light within 3 months approximately, say on late August 2016. S*P style has changed too, being today massively influenced by electronics, kind of synthetic future-rock showing off retro-nostalgia glamorous taste.
Kraftwerk+Moroder+Blondie+J.M.Jarre+OMD all mixed up with today’s cutting edge music technology and lot of passionate playful attitude might be taken as being the effective ingredients of such a brand new work!
Meantime, Elena Alice’s SPECTRA*paris has released a new single along with John Fryer’s Black Needle Noise, titled “Naughty Girl”.
EAF/S*P once again is releasing a club/radio single as a guest for John Rox’s new single “Social Lovers”.
Release date: May 23rd.
One of Belgium’s most popular electronic music export product Metroland delivered a musical testimonial for their lost friend Louis Zachert (Passenger L – on the right on the photo above) by releasing their album “Things Will Never Sound The Same Again”.
The songs on this album all relate to their friendship and whereas the first single “Under The Roof” was named after the recording studio where they spent loads of time together, their new single “Synthetic Sound” is about their common deep love for synthetic music and sound.
Metroland deliberately opted to remix all the versions themselves, “in order to contain the true spirit of their synthetic sound” so they say. The single (available here on Bandcamp) is also released in an alternative “remixes” version (which is available here on Bandcamp).
