To mark their upcoming debut 7", Ruined Value, Vertical Slump have released a video for the track 'Chanteuse'. With the eponymous heroine of the song the erstwhile Velvet Underground-member and Chelsea Girl Nico, the video recreates Screen Tests, the silent film portraits of the Warhol Superstars created by Warhol and film-maker Gerard Malanga.
In this rendering, however, the location of the 'Factory' is transplanted from Manhattan to Dalston; specifically Power Lunches, the artist-run venue around which the band is centered. As well as depictions of the band themselves, other subjects include members of Sauna Youth, Ravioli Me Away, Frau, Circuit Breaker and Slowcoaches, the staff of Unwork Records and Drag-e-oke sensation Ruby Waters.
The video was made by Vertical Slump's own Simon Marsham in collaboration with photographer Tom Hall. Watch it below...
It`s probably just a question of time until the universe taps into the force that is GLORYHAMMER!
Their upcoming album Space 1992: Rise of the Chaos Wizards is the next chapter of the epic GLORYHAMMER saga – set to be released on September 25th via Napalm Records!
It rewrites history and future alike and raises the Astral Hammer to smash the evil Chaos Wizards: this extravagant background is perfect material for galloping, highly melodic power metal that merges galactic fire with unforgettable metal anthems!

Body Sculptures (mem. Lust For Youth, Puce Mary, Varg) announce 7' on Posh Isolation
Body Sculptures is a recent collective project of five unique voices in Scandinavian electronic music today, constituting the collaborative efforts of Sweden's Northern Electronics and Posh Isolation.
To categorise the music of Body Sculptures would be a difficult task as the music draws inspiration from many different fields. Terms like techno, synth music, soundscape & Industrial are all fitting whilst they don’t fully capture the project.
One of the strongest apsects of Body Sculptures is that the individual members come from different musical backgrounds and bring very different work methods and sound pallets to the body of work. Erik Enocksson, Jonas ’Varg’ Rönnberg, Frederikke ’Puce Mary’ Hoffmeier, Ossian ’Vit Fana’ Ohlsson & Loke Rahbek recently debuted Body Sculptures at this years Atonal festival in Berlin.
The Base of All Beauty is the Body collects the earliest work of the project, and most of the material on this debut release was recorded by Rönnberg, Rahbek & Ohlsson before the full line up of the band had been established. ”The Base of all Beauty is the Body,” whilst being a beautiful debut of powerful and emotional music, is also a promise of more to come.
The release is presented in two different versions; a two track 7”, and in a limited edition version (Sold out already) that includes another 8 tracks presented on cassette.
The band members:
Jonas Rönnberg, known under his solo moniker Varg, co-owner of Northern Electronics and involvement in the projects Ulwhednar (with Abdulla Rashim) and D.ä.r.f.d.h.s.
Erik Enocksson, renowned Swedish composer who has scored countless independent productions, with recent press accolades for his release for alternative soundtrack to the film 'Apan', on Posh Isolation.
Frederikke Hoffmeier, of industrial and experimental project Puce Mary.
Ossian Ohlsson, of dark industrial outfit Vit Fana
Loke Rahbek, co-owner of the Danish Posh Isolation label and member of Damien Dubrovnik, Croatian Amor, and Lust For Youth.
Barcelona-based TERROLOKAUST's second album for DWA “Spit The Poison Out” spent 8 consecutive weeks in the Top Ten of the Deutsche Alternative Charts, peaking at #3, and was the band’s first US release – sublicensed to Vendetta. The album also led to the band’s first vinyl releases in the shape of 2 further singles “The Way It Must Be” and “Scars That Never Heal”, released by DWA on 7″ and 12″ formats respectively, and their second promo video – for “The Way It Must Be”.
In the wake of its release, slowly but surely TERROLOKAUST have started to become a fixture on the German festival circuit, and last year DWA arranged a first major European tour for the band – to spend 3 weeks on the road opening for AESTHETIC PERFECTION/FADERHEAD…and the original DWA digipak release of “Spit The Poison Out” has all but sold out.
Consequently, the CD version of the album has now been re-pressed - including new bonus tracks - and a limited edition 2CD version also released, featuring as its CD2 a 12-track album of remixes:
