Flavor of the week #34

Kant Kino
www.myspace.com/kantkino08
( ;D --> Kant Kino was started late 2008 for playing at a free slot at Elektrostat 2008 (major underground festival in Norway celebrating 10 years - this year with Apoptygma Berzerk and Front for 242 and many others). Kant Kino consist of band members active in Industrial Heads, Skin Disease and The Film Inside. KANT KINO inject the distorted force of the 90's dark elektro genre into their strong 80's EBM roots to render dark body music with distorted vocals and a strong sense for melody. Have you ever dared to have the forbidden thought of hearing a fresh combination of HOCICO or WUMPSCUT’s distorted darkness with the melodic EBM side of classic acts like NITZER EBB or LEAETHER STRIP? Expect EBM with the Norwegian seal of quality!)

Never Surrender
CC_amazon
( ;D --> After one and a half years of continuous touring activities (also supporting German legends Rammstein along the way), one of the most influential Electro-Industrial-acts of our time returns with a bang: Combichrist! The red hot new single “Never Surrender” is a raw and dry beat-attack that discharges into an infernal mayhem of a chorus. With this aggressive groove-monster, Andy LaPlegua and band are bound to take the alternative dance floors around the world by storm, making the single a formidable appetizer for the new album “Making Monsters”, scheduled for release on August 27th, 2010. Remixes from IAMX, Terence Fixmer and Melt round off this relentless and excellent club package.)

( ;D --> KiEw is a German electro-industrial project founded in late 1990 by Andreas "Thedi" Thedens.)
Mental [per]mutation
K_amazon
( ;D --> Welcome to a new audio therapy in the Electro-madhouse! On “mental [per]mutation”, our favourite patients dive deeper into the everyday life of the institution, unearthing a sonic roller coaster ride of thudding mutated dance-floor-Industrial hybrids (“Käferfrühstück”, “Mister 29” and many more) , acoustic experiments, as well as instrumentals with a soundtrack-like feel (the “Retrograd”-series.) During the course of the album, the listener will gain deep insights into psychoacoustic excerpts from the patients’ files, strange new forms of therapy and numerous soliloquies, often between multiple personalities. “mental [per]mutation“ includes a second disc on which special cases from outside the institution (among them the NYC-Techno-legend Lenny Dee) have gained access to KiEw’s sound files to inject them with their very own madness. Welcome to Disco Dementia! Only one question remains: are the musicians mad or is it the listener?)


Holy Fuck

Latin
( ;D --> An interesting fact is that they don't use computers to produce the music. Instead, they use live drums and bass, as well as a myriad of other electric devices (toy keyboards, guitar effects pedals, and notably a 35mm film synchronizer). It's said that they also don't rehearse, which is pretty mind-blowing after listening to the tight jams on this album.)

Faithless

www.faithless.co.uk
( ;D --> Faithless is "unique among dance acts in excelling at both high-octane club tracks and fully-rounded, satisfying eclectic albums," according to Q magazine. The London-based trio has sold more than three million albums—including Reverence, Sunday 8pm, and Outrospective—and four million singles worldwide with hits such as "Salva Mea," "Insomnia," "God Is a Deejay," and "We Come 1.")
The Dance
F_amazon 
( ;D --> 2010 release from the iconic British Electronic act. The Dance sees Maxi Jazz, Sister Bliss and Rollo reach the bar that their back-cat sets so high, and Maxi reckons it's 'chock-a-block with dance tunes which we hope will be the soundtrack to many Saturday nights for a while to come.)
