Schwarzer Engel - Götterfunken

The new EP from the epic Gothic - Metal / Neue Deutsche Härte band Schwarzer Engel is out now!

With his Symphony No. 9 to „Freude schöner Götterfunken“ Ludwig von Beethoven created one of his most famous masterpieces. Almost two centuries later, the german dark-metal-band SCHWARZER ENGEL melodizes the symphony again in their unique style. Using melodical metal-guitars and their unique vocals plus medieval-sounding tunes, this piece is truly a pleasure to fans of dark and atmospheric music. While the classy piano-interpretations are contributed by El Friede (OOMPH!), the artwork comes from Season Zero (ASP, L'Âme Immortelle, Sunrise Avenue).

Besides the title-track and the two piano-interpretations, the EP also contains a track called „EinMensch“, which is an exciting preview of the upcoming album „Imperium II – Titania“. Never before the sound of the band has been as euphoric as on „Götterfunken“. Even if it was the last great opus of Beethoven, one will truly wish that it might not be the last one of SCHWARZER ENGEL. The EP will only be available in a limited edition, so the joy will only be for the fast ones.

CIMA MUTA

We are very pleased to announce the releases of the amazing Witch House / Dark ambient / Tripop project CIMA MUTA (side project of CHAINREACTOR).

CIMA MUTA is the experimental side project of Jens Minor the mastermind of Chainreactor, focused on the melancholic and spheric styles of dark electronic music. Started in 2013, he has processed influences from old movies and the beauty of wide landscapes or lost urban places in music which is very sublime but also gloomy and sometimes even frightend. The essence is about catching the hidden beauty in things, who might appear disturbing in the first place. 

The new album FRAGMENT is a compilation of several self published releases of the last three years and also includes two new tracks of pure, cold atmospheres and convincing grooves.

Logical Terror

If one should read something about LOGICAL TERROR in the near future, this clearly is no reason to look for safety in the basement. Moreover it is a reason to watch out for the building from where loud, hard and fast guitar-riffs literally are dropping the bomb!

The reason might be, that those five guys of Modena, Italy are celebrating the release of their new album “Ashes of Fate” with their fans, razing the location to the ground. But if you think this is nothing but brute force, you are wrong: Well sophisticated lyrics and a long process of composition make this album truly a quality product, that takes the next stage in evolution towards his predecessor “Almost Human”, which was released in 2011. This marks a consequent step, if you think of the lyrics of LOGICAL TERROR, which are praising technical enhancement and evolution.

The Italians were already able to engage Jon Howard from THREAT SIGNAL and Björn “Speed” Strid from SOILWORK for a cooperation with the new album. Furthermore the amazing dark artwork of the album was provided by Luminokaya (MESHUGGAH). There is little doubt that a band that already shared the stage with known bands like SEPULTURA, ARCH ENEMY, SOILWORK, PRIMAL FEAR, DARKANE, ENGEL, MNENIC, RAUNCHY, DESTRAGE, NEOSIS, TASTERS, CAYNE, EMPYRIOS, CADAVERIA and many more, will also find their way with “Ashes of Fate” to the hearts and ears of the metal-community out there.
