Following up to the success of the most recent album Pins And Needles, The Birthday Massacre returns with Imaginary Monsters, a new EP consisting of three all new songs and five remixes.
The three new songs, "Forever", "Burn Away", and "Left Behind" find the band at its creative apex. Described as dark, personal and atmospheric.
To give the fans another look into the aforementioned sound, The Birthday Massacre has had five colleagues offer their unique perspectives on tracks from Pins And Needles. SKOLD, Combichrist, tweaker, Assemblage 23, and Kevvy Mental & Dave Ogilvie add their own spin to The Birthday Massacre's distinctive style.
As a bonus, the EP also features the video for "In The Dark"!

People who know their stuff will certainly be aware that it ranges from hard EBM to the finest electronic pop music.
We have some very exclusive news for you.
Last week we already could announce that Flesh & Fell would be one of the bands that will be part of the 3rd edition of the RE:WIND-mini-FEST at Vooruit in Ghent on 7th October.
The second band is Blancmange.
This classic wavepopband that scored massive hits in the 80’s with songs as “Don’t tell me”, “Living on the ceiling” and “The day before you came” are back. Everyone who saw their gig last month in the UK told us they were fascinating!
A third act will be confirmed soon.

Zweieck Recordings announces the release of two essential releases.
On June 17th 2011 Haujobb will break the 8 year period of silence.
The new sound is called "Dead Market" and it´s the preview to the full length album "NEW WORLD MARCH", coming out september 2011.
After touring with Recoil with his project Architect, which lead to the official Remix for Depeche Mode in collaboration with Alan Wilder it is about time for Daniel Myer and his long-standing colleague Dejan Samardzic to pitch the electronic music world into chaos.
No one else than the living legend Paul Kendall mixed the single version.
Paul is famous for his Mute-fame as various classic acts like Depeche Mode, Nitzer Ebb, Wire or Renegade Soundwave owe their sound to this man.
And other release to look forward to is the newxest Patenbrigade Wolf. It’s called 'schallplattenunterhalter' and it was back then the official term for official disk jockeys in the german democratic republic.
This term was chosen simply to avoid the English 'disk jockey'. As only a certified spu was permitted to spin in front of a bigger audience.
On this limited ep they present 4+1 banging electro-smashers ranging somewhere between gdr-educational tv, (n)ostalghia and seminal future electronics. Including on this new EP there will be a brand new pop song with the hilarious name “Der brigadier trinkt bier”.
Be quick as it’s limited to 500 copies, in (n)ostalgic gdr-7"-single-design plus 7" cover!
