New bands confirmed for the Amphi Festival 2011:

The first new entry not only offers a profound measure to give the chills to your neighbour at the next traffic light, AGONOIZE are in any respect on top of their game! Especially in providing adrenaline-pumped electro sound, there are very few to teach the heavy machinery specialists from Berlin a lesson. Reinforced by visual splatter effects AGONOIZE are infamous for their rough-edged stage performances and nothing for the faint-hearted!

All quiet at the Amphi-front? Not in the slightest! The industrial-bombers FEINDFLUG always enjoy to deliver an action-packed show. After literally laying the Amphi stage in ashes in 2009, Felix and Banane are returning with a sonic thunderstorm, to commemorate the horrors of the World War II.

Being our third addition to the pack, we are fond to announce CLAN OF XYMOX. Since their last Amphi appearance the iconic Dutch goth band, led by mastermind Ronny Moorings, not only passed the magic mile-marker of their 25th band anniversary. Following the footsteps of countless classic tunes like „There’s No Tomorrow“ and „Jasmine & Rose“, CLAN OF XYMOX will have a new album ready in 2011, setting the best premise for an inspiring show in Cologne.

SAMSAS TRAUM will release their upcoming album in (early) 2011 as well. Following a strong appearance at the Staatenhaus this year, Alexander Kaschte and his band are picking up the momentum again. So look forward with us to another round of ingenious dark rock by SAMSAS TRAUM.
