22 years of waiting are over! The first new album from The Klinik in the original line-up of Dirk Ivens and Marc Verhaeghen has arrived here fresh out of the recording studio.
As this was the band that inspired us to start the label and that The Klinik derived the name "Out Of Line" from, you simply cannot imagine how special this is for all of them.
The Klinik are glad and extremely honored to welcome a genre-defining band and one of their biggest inspirations into their ranks! More info soon!
The French band Elastik whom we like a lot have a new album out, it's simply called INSTRUMENTAL EP

Manic Depression is extremely proud to present this album of finest ‘Theatre Macabre / Deathrock’ from the UK!
Formed by Cam Campbell formerly from the legendary death rock Gothic band 'SEX GANG CHILDREN' and William Westwater from Cyberpunk band 'SENSORY SAVAGE', FEAR INCORPORATED fuses different types of styles to portray a selection of stories which will feature elements of the macabre-real and unreal, past and présent.
The album is themed on human fears and phobias and explores many different terrors on its macabre musical journey. Terror talks... it learned its vocabulary from Fear Incorporated.
This is the RE-RELEASE of a compilation, that was first out 2 years ago, but sold out extremely fast!
This is one of the nicest compiled Cold Wave/Minimal Electro releases EVER! Put together by New York's Wierd Records founder Pieter Schoolwerth and Angular's Joe Daniel, this album chronicles the secret underground cult genres of cold wave and minimal wave, which mostly originated from continental Europe between the years 1981-1985.
Nowadays the computer has largely replaced traditional analogue machines as the dominant generator of synthetic sounds. This release is to revive the frosty 'cold' sounds of the minimal electronic groups of the early 1980s.
Active largely in small towns and isolated, non-metropolitan areas of France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, and The Netherlands, the first wave of minimal electronic groups functioned at the time as a raw, aggressive, affirmative antidote to the superficial excesses of commercial new wave. Usin! g analogue synthesizers, sequencers, and drum machines the 'minimal synth' artists successfully combined the sounds of the German electronic bands of the 60s and 70's (Amon Duul, Neu, Faust, Can) with the seminal early industrial bands largely active in the UK (Throbbing Gristle, SPK, Cabaret Voltaire) to produce a new form of electropop that went on to be crucially influential on European and American pop and dance music of the late 80's and early 90's (Italo, New Beat, EBM).
Containing songs that have only been available up to now on ultra rare 7”s, lost radio sessions and MC tapes, as well as never before seen photos and extensive sleeve notes about the genre. ‘Cold Waves and Minimal Electronics Vol.1’ is here to teach us all a thing or two about the history of electronic music the world over
