ROME
www.myspace.com/romecmi
( ;D --> After having played in several underground bands in Luxembourg,singer-songwriter Jerome Reuter almost unintentionally founded ROME in December 2005. The music and lyrical world of ROME is genuinely unique and constantly brilliant. Blending excellent songwriting craftsmanship, unusual arrangements and fine poetry into one monstruous and intimate musical output that combines chanson, dark ambient, apocalyptic folk, pop, acoustic rock, martial industrial, cold wave – all rolled into one impressive avantgarde package.)
Our Holy Rue/The Merchant Fleet
www.trisol.de/en/news/86-rome-ourholyrue.html
( ;D--> Gone! Gone are the days of mellow and lush ballads, it seems - for this is ROME at its rawest! As an artist Jerome Reuter remains completely unpredictable, which may come as a shock to those who discovered ROME as a Chanson Noir outfit: What you are looking for is gone for good! "Our Holy Rue" is a harsh, industrial beauty: relentless and uncompromising. And the rather folkish song "The Merchant Fleet" is an instant classic, dedicated to Jerome's brotherhood of the sea!)

Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows
www.myspace.com/soporaeternusofficial
www.soporaeternus.de
( ;D --> Officially founded in 1989, the Germany based SOPOR AETERNUS & THE ENSEMBLE OF SHADOWS is one of the last of the very few dark groups/projects in Europe (in fact, on this planet), who have based the trinity of their music, poetry and visual appearance on the explicit emphasis of the highly individual expression of pain, isolation, depression, token suicides and the desperate search for the ?sacred reunion?; all conceived and acted out by SOPOR's sole protagonist ? ? the transgendered and utterly beautiful Goddess (and likewise tragically Butoh-esque creature) ANNA-VARNEY CANTODEA.)
Have You Seen This Ghost?
www.infrarot.de/sopor-aeternus/have-you-seen-this-ghost/2008266
( ;D --> There are no words to adequately describe the enchanted music(k) of Sopor Aeternus & The Ensemble Of Shadows' release. Those of you, who are familiar with Anna-Varney Cantodea's art, know that s/he (literally) plays in her own league. Generally speaking, her work is always like the forgotten soundtrack to a phantastic, gothic horror film that was never meant for a human audience to see ... - and this album is certainly no exception.)

Tropic of Cancer
http://tropicofcancer.bandcamp.com
( ;D --> Tropic of Cancer is Camella Lobo & J Mendez, who's probably better known as Sandwell District's Silent Servant. With a Sound of Arcane folk drones and smacked out vocals, driven by Suicide style drum machine minimalism and shuddering within some of the bleakest soundscapes this side of Sun, inspired by a wealth of classic darkside influences to end up with a dank basement sound bearing traces of everything from The Velvets to MBV, with distant drum loops and miserablist guitars trawling the surface. Despite not being remotely techno, the sound perfectly suits the sinisterly irony-free Black country aesthetic.)
The Sorrow of Two Blooms
ToC_amazon
( ;D --> Blackest Ever Black made an indelible mark on 2010 with a couplet of stunning releases from Raime. This year they open their leathery wings to shelter Tropic Of Cancer aka Camella Lobo and Juan Mendez (Silent Servant) for a midnight mission away from their spiritual home, Regis' Downwards sect. No doubt, this is their strongest material to date: three passionately gothic odes to the romance of misery. There are clear, strong references to the gothic digital minimalism of Martin Hannet's work on Joy Division, and maybe more apt allusions to the skinny Post Punk of Savage Republic, and Faith/Pornography/Seventeen Seconds era The Cure, but unlike many contemporary guardians of this sound, TOC's misanthropy is articulated with exquisite production values closer to those of Grouper or Broadcast, making their introversion that much more tangible and heart-breakingly glorious.)

The group evolved from a production partnership involving childhood friends Avi Nissim and Lior Perlmutter, each of whom were DJs in Israel's dance/industrial scene of the late '80s before beginning their production careers in 1989. Astral Projection produces high octane futuristic trance combined with certain Old Skool Goa elements.)

I want my lyrics to insipre, want you to feel, I want you to dream... I don't want to explain. I want every listener to have their own interpretations, their own images and feelings attached to each song. The first demo recordings of LiD date back to 2006, composed mainly on the acoustic guitar, later augmented with all instruments Stephan likes and plays. A unique, dramatic sound backing Stephan's passionate vocals was created.)

John Maus
www.myspace.com/johnmaus  
www.mausspace.com
( ;D --> John Maus lives in his birthplace of Austin, Minnesota. Whilst working towards his PhD in Political Science he also composes music that taps into melancholic fantasy and affirms that we are all truly alive. Questing synthesisers, tensely strung bass lines and chasing drum machines provide the perfect backdrop for John's deeply resonant reverb-drenched vocal. Born in the decade of synth pop and sharing his birthday with George Frideric Handel, John started making music when Nirvana posters went up on every teenager's wall. It's this curious conflux of influences that partially helps to describe John's music. It's a world where the Germs jam with Jerry Goldsmith, Cabaret Voltaire relocate to Eternia and Josquin des Prez writes a new score for RoboCop. The confrontation of punk, the fleeting poignancy of 80s movie soundtracks, the insistent pulse of Moroder and the spirituality of Medieval and Baroque music all find salvation in John Maus. After a spell working alongside Ariel Pink and Gary War in Haunted Graffiti, 2006 saw the release of John's debut album proper through Upset The Rhythm.)

As a musician Eigner has contributed to hundreds of albums for various artists. Bamonte began working for Depeche Mode from the start of their career in 1980, taking on a varierty of roles before moving on in 1995 to work for The Cure for several years. The trio is completed by singer Florian Kraemmer. Kraemmer, like Eigner a native of Vienna, is the son of an actress and an opera singer, and took classical piano training from the age of eight. To date, he has worked mainly as a TV composer and has preserved his passion for classical music. The trio shares creative equality when they work on their songs. Daryl writes the lyrics, Florian develops the melodies and Christian puts together the powerful music that marks Compact Space with their own unmistakable style as soon as you listen to them. Compact Space has recently signed a worldwide licensing deal with Ferryhouse Productions in Hamburg. The first album "Nameless" and "Push Push" EP will be released simultaneously on 24th June 2011. The album was mixed by Paul 'P-Dub' Walton, and the aesthetics of Compact Space are also visually consistent: Danny Drysdale, who filmed among other things the Killers' hit "Human", made the video for "Push Push".)
