Give me your hand and let me take you on a strange and wonderful journey into a dark and fascinating world. With „Monument“, their most opulent album production to date, Blutengel are popularizing Gothic lifestyle in an addictively catchy way. The Berlin-based charts storming band’s talent for transforming off-beat subjects and odes to non-conformism into haunting melodies is effectively complemented by a gigantic production and fresh, theatralic outbursts.
Chris Pohl and his band play out all facets of their one and a half decades spanning career, embarking on an aural journey that manages to keep the listener mesmerized with dark, minimalist club sounds, monumental dark Pop anthems and deep, emotional ballads. Welcome to the dark side… it had never been this irresistible before! And if you have tasted blood, come and dance with us!
“Monument” is also released as a deluxe 2CD version containing a bonus disc with 8 more all-new tracks and as a strictly limited fan box which contains the 2CD deluxe edition, an exclusive disc with moving piano versions of Blutengel classics and a more than 100 page exclusive photo book that celebrates the history of the band with a comprehensive discography and lots of exclusive photos of Chris Pohl. A real collector’s gem!

Complete Control Productions are very proud to welcome you Inside The Volcano.
A compilation where young, hot, electro punk acts like Schwefelgelb, Agent Side Grinder and Petra Flurr+Modernista demonstrate how to take a cue from old school influences and still sound totally fresh and thrilling.
Industrial legends Portion Control, Ike Yard and Gerechtigkeits Liga refused to follow the herd when they started out at the dawn of the 1980s. They still do, and they remain as relevant and exciting as ever.
Techno heroes Thomas P Heckmann, The Horrorist and Adriano Canzian have all contributed crushing dance tracks where old school EBM and furious techno fuse seamlessly. Also represented on Inside The Volcano is the new breed of leftfield dance music with mind blowing tracks from Equitant, Friherren, Diamond Skull District and K-Nitrate.
Organic’s dark and beautiful alternative rock is firmly rooted in their post-punk past, while Atomic Playboy and Infiltrator bludgeon listeners into submission with dirty electronics and psychotic howls.
The paranoid machine funk of //TENSE// and The Pain Machinery aims for the body as well as the mind, showing why they are at the forefront of the new wave of electronic body music currently wreaking havoc on dancefloors all over the world.
Severe Illusion, Arzt+Pfusch, Guilt Trip and NTRSN are expert purveyors of dark, cold electro whereas Solvent and Emu Bomb infuse their darkness with a strong pop sensibility.
Most of these 24 tracks are exclusive for this compilation. A few have only been released on vinyl before and some will be featured on upcoming releases.
