This week saw the launch of the debut single from quite an exciting newcomer act, Mondträume. On the "Life is short" single the Spanish duo Mondträume brings a modern synth pop style with strong club appeal and a touch of darkness.
The single acts as a teaser for the release of their forthcoming debut album "Empty" that will surely appeal to all fans of bands like Wolfsheim, Namnambulu, Melotron or Beborn Beton.
The single features the original version of the track completed with a club mix of the title song by Cosmic Armchair and a more laid back pop one by Norway's best electropop export product Electro Spectre.
Add to that a dark-elektro one of the B-side track "Parasite" and you know you are in for a very good treat.
Available now via iTunes, Bandcamp and Spotify.
Combichrist returns with an all new album and an all new positive outlook! On We Love You, Andy LaPlegua and his merry band of loveable scamps have traded the nihilistic vitriol of Making Monsters for a shiny new perspective. Why, in the opening track, "We Were Made to Love You", Combichrist kicks things off by saying "please, don't forget...
We Love You"! See? They love us! Granted, it's followed by the words "now die" and thus begins the bone-crunching, anthemic opening song. Ok. Who are we kidding? This is Combichrist. And the new album, We Love You, is Combichrist turned up way past ten. Everything is farther, faster, and darker.
There are more guitars, pounding drums, heavier electronics, further experimentation, lots more anger... and its tons more fun. C'mon, maggots, join the party.

Oyaarss, whose two albums were released on Ad Noiseam last year, has developped a new live concept. Rather than performing alone, he is now joined by a live guitar player and drummer (both from the act Nelaudis). The result is a more organic concert which keeps the raw intensity of Oyaarss's performances, but offers a more visually appealing and variable experience.
A new live video of this Oyaarss's live formation has been made available today, for the track "Parejošs kaut kas / Perishable Something", which appeared originally on Oyaarss's "Bads" album (Ad Noiseam adn159). This video was shot at the Totaldobže in Riga and features spoken words by Edvīns Raups.
This track is taken from the "Bads" album.
Oyaarss have already played several concerts as a live band in their native Latvia this year. More shows will be announced in the coming weeks.
"Parejošs kaut kas / Perishable Something" is the second Oyaarss track to receive the live band video treatment.

Here is Lescure 13. Okay, there are stupid questions....but still....
Who are they?
Lescure 13 is the EBM side project of Johan Van Roy (SUICIDE COMMANDO) and Stefan Bens (STIN SCATZOR), originally founded back in 1990.
This is the sort of reunion that probably not many would have expected. Lescure 13, formed in 1989 by Johan van Roy (Suicide Commando) and Stefan Bens (Stin Scatzor) and quickly becoming a cult-band in the EBM-scene of the Nineties with a series of Cassette-releases and one CD, are back! Never officially disbanded, the project was sent into a hiatus of more than 15 years, as both protagonist got too involved with their respective bands picking up momentum.
With the double disc “Too Much … Motherf***ers”, Lescure 13 return with a full blast of everything that made them a scene-favorite: pure old school Electronic Body Music, full of raw edges and no compromises! On disc one, they effectively prove that their trademark sound has lost none of its impact in 2013,with a collection of brand-new machine-driven tracks, massive reworks of some of their cult-songs and some club-compatible remixes. Disc 2 is a dream come true for any fan of rare electronic dance floor gems, with a compilation of old recordings that have only been available on tape and are long since deleted.
This hard-hitting double-dip is a must-own for all old school body-maniacs and for all diehard Suicide-Commando- and Stin-Scatzor-fans, as well. THIS IS EBM! Love it or f**k off!
How do they sound like?
EBM right in yer face!!!! Well, click below.....
