Analog Angel – “The Thin Line (Between Love and Hate)” – Album Review

In the shortest while after their 2009 “Dischord” album, Analog Angel strike again – this time, in 2011 with a sound they describe themselves as “A harder, harsher sound than the first album with BIG kick drums, throbbing bass, strings and loads of nice sounds with an unusual twist here and there”. “The Thin Line (Between Love and Hate)“, released on Feb-28, 2011, comes as a needed material especially before the announced stage performances from Analog Angel in 2011 at Infest and WGT – to sum up a momentous 2011 for the band’s timeline.

The Thin Line (Between Love and Hate)” is a very interesting album, with a fresh and quite rough edge, that is sure to gather a numerous audience. The minimal artistry of the album artwork goes hand in hand with a sound that is not at all sophisticated, but at the same time developed in numerous electro dimensions that are worth your attention. The album already comes with an EP for album remixes (“The Thin Line Remix EP“) is a multidimensional trial at epitomizing sensation and concept – from the first to the last, the tracks display a vast array of emotions and listeners are up against quality material. Viva Music favorites are: “Twisted Tortured Faith“, “Today“, “How Does It Feel” and “When You Called My Name“, but we strongly recommend that you take a ride with the entire album tracklist, since it is a sincere exploration of humanity with a no-hassle, independent, and amorously ethical outlook on how things are and how things should be. We enjoyed listening to the album for the mere fact that it deals with emotions and adds an electro soundtrack to it with an unruly, yet very artsy ’80’s feeling to it.

Tracklist: “The Thin Line (Between Love and Hate)” – the album

“Twisted Tortured Faith”
“Today”
“Lie to Me”
“Prelude to Greed – Instrumental”
“Avarice”
“LOVE/HATE – The Thin Line Between”
“The Miracle”
“DMD!! – Instrumental”
“What you get!!”
“How Does It Feel?”
“When You Called My Name”

 

Tracklist – “The Thin Line ReMix EP

“Avarice: The Greedy Bastard Mix”
“Lie to Me: Total Fabrication Mix”
“What You Get: Da, da, da Mix”
“Today: The Fight Club Remix”

Tyske Ludder “Diaspora” – release date March 25, 2011

Filed under: International News — Tags: , , , — admin @ 10:19 am

TYSKE LUDDER is an institution!

There are only a few Electro bands from the 90s that were able to stage their comeback with such overwhelming success. But TYSKE LUDDER did it back in 2006! The band is very active among their fans – loads of live performances (including the famous “Zuckergrufties” at Blackfield Festival 2010), 70.000 MySpace followers and rank 4th at google-search!

After they had re-released all of their cult albums from the 90s, TYSKE LUDDER managed to raise the bar with their great releases “Sojus”, “SCIENTific technOLOGY” and “Anonymous”.

And again – the new album “Diaspora” continues the story of success of „Anonymous”.

Modern Electro sounds combined with Old School elements and pumping beats underline TYSKE LUDDER’s distinctive vocals, which are accompanied by intelligent soundscapes.

Thematically, the album deals with the central topic “Diaspora” which means “to be scattered”. And it is not just about the situation of Jewish people in history – TYSKE LUDDER deal with the situation of ethnic minorities in our society in general.

Tracks like “Der androgyne Held”, “Eugenix”, “Wallfahrt” or “Abgesang” will definitely become the new TYSKE LUDDER anthems.

As special bonus, the exclusive first edition, strictly limited to 888 copies, will contain a powerful cover version of Tilt’s classic “Merciless”!

EBM / Electro

Vigilante – The New Resistance – Out March, 25

In these times, when we are faced with a world where our leaders more and more take away our liberties and rights everyday. In these times, when we wake up in a society where we feel more and more controlled and paralysed by the media everyday.

With his latest album, the South American artist VIGILANTE wants to break the chains of an unfair system. According to himself, this is his best record so far in a short but intense career. He describes it as “the soundtrack for a new revolution” provocatively naming it “The New Resistance“.

By skillfully mixing elements of Electro, EBM and Metal, he created a hybrid, powerful and passionate sound. Ivan Munoz joined a group of musical underground heroes including members of Clawfinger, Ministry, Strapping Young Lad,  Public Enemy, Atari Teenage Riot, Leaether Strip, Die Krupps, Birmingham 6, Feindflug and many more.

They form an alliance which confronts the minds of those who believe that they own the world and that the flame of revolution has been extinguished.

This revolutionary musical manifesto demonstrates that there are still dreams to fight for, truths to be told and ideals to die for. Join The New Resistance!

7th electro music show on Bucuresti radio (98.3 fm) on Sunday, Mar 6, 2011

Vivi and Adara were guests of the extremely pop­u­lar A la chart de week-end, with Bog­dan Crutescu show on Radio Bucuresti (98.3 FM) last Sunday. We are grate­ful to Bog­dan Crutescu for his invi­ta­tion, and we appre­ci­ate his support.

Man, we had a blast! Adara wore her neon light cyberlox in the studio! We turned off the light, so we had Adara’s hair as sole source of light. We danced, we laughed, we sang along, we spoke about the great industrial scene and we promised to carry on with this show even when the odds are against us ;)!

We played 11 great electro/industrial tracks between 7:30 and 8:00 pm and 8:30 and 9:00 pm (GMT+2). We talked to our friends from all over the world on facebook, while they were watching us on http://www.bucurestifm.ro/. The livestream works very well! This is vv’s Facebook page that she’s on  during the show.

All Royalties on playing the tracks go to the record companies of each band.
