MNS New Releases

Have you ever dreamed the same nightmare time after time after time?Two years after the critically acclaimed  release of "Under Seven Skies", DAHLIA'S TEAR return with a new album. "Dreamsphere" conjures visions from the depths of elusive, eerie dreams. It enables your mind to step outside of reality, into haunted spheres. This introspective work is an enigmatic, dark ambient and industrial recording, with compositions reflecting a light-starved, timeless journey. The listener will experience emptiness. The dark corridors of your mind will release its fears and anxiety. The subconscious will unfold into the obscure unknown, experiencing ominous desolation, and the whispering echoes of distant nocturnal voices. The droning sound of ancient machines and ghostly clicks of clock gears, provide a prophetic lullaby to your personal dream sphere. "Dreamsphere" provides dark soundscapes, manipulated field recordings, and narrative speeches, combined with cold lush strings and raw pad layers, inviting the listener to their personal nightmare with DAHLIA'S TEAR!

After several years of silent confinement, Munich-based AMGOD frontman broke his restraints and started testing new material on stage... The resonant feedback received both in person and through the internet blog communities allowed his inner darkness regenerate at full speed.AMGOD is the creative output of multi-talented artist Dominik van Reich, ex-frontman of German harsh dark electro act YELWORC. Created in 1993, this conceptual solo-project takes its creative inspiration from the word 'dogma', symbolizing the first commandment in the inverted sense "I am God", a direct connection with egotism and narcissism - with the morbid attraction of falling in love with oneself and all the related states of envy, dissatisfaction and aggression...Depicting the abysses of mankind and today's decline of society, the new amGod album continues where the previous one stopped by incorporating new sound directions and integrating influences gathered over the years. With a forward dancefloor approach mixed with heavily-fused synthesizers and some manipulated guitars, AMGOD stands more than ever for threatening dark electro-industrial with hard dominant vocals... In addition, the music is perfectly reinforced by high-impact visuals and design. Image, of course, remains an integral part of the AMGOD concept and the new album therefore sees itself divided into two chapters of musical nightmares split across two full discs sub-titled "Creeped & Bloody" and "Harsh & Dirty", each presented as a stand-alone release with an expanded 20-page booklet full of disturbing deviant artwork by the genius Phil Amelung (Armageddon-Industries.de).AMGOD offers an multi-sense extravaganza through complex visual and sonic architecture made up of malevolent electronic ambiance, dark electro sequences, powerful distorted vocals and dirty manipulated guitar sounds. From the orchestral grandeur of "God Complex (Part 2)" to the upbeat club devastator "Pain and Desire", through the dark elekcro pearls "On the Hunt", "Dreamcatcher" and "Fight!", there are also the ear-challenging tracks "Brap Talk" and "War Trap", without mentioning the hypnotizing 13+ minutes long upgraded version of "Stigmata" and the upgraded remake of YELWORC's classic "Soulhunter"... AMGOD is on the hunt again – run for shelter before the beast grabs you!!Additionally, the band's numerous fans will be thrilled by this 3CD carton box limited editiong of the album, including bonus artwork as well as the exclusive remix album, "Slaved & Deeply", gathering together collaborations and remix works from artists from a variety of musical scenes, including DJ LA SASH & DJ SANDRA GOLD, LEÆTHER STRIP, DJ ROBERTO Q. INGRAM, DIABOLIC ART, IMPLANT, KANT KINO and more, as well as remixes/reinterpretations by AMGOD himself...

Here comes a dark and melodic album that finally brings hope and light to the stagnating world of goth music: "This Clear Shining" by RAZORFADE!An aptly titled debut album of such high maturity that this new band could only be hiding experienced musicians! Featuring ex-members of SUSPIRIA and IKON, RAZORFADE reveals a dark electronic sound approach whilst still incorporating atmospheric guitar and vocals reminiscent of the pair's previous projects. Sombre, catchy, danceable anthems share similarities with bands like VNV NATION, CLAN OF XYMOX or even ASSEMBLAGE 23. "This Clear Shining" is an album that encompasses different styles, ranging from those aimed at squarely at the dancefloor, such as "Chemical Distraction", "Shout Down" and "Breathe", to slower, more introspective songs like "Fear Is Rising", "The Razor Fades" and "A Push Away from Falling". But whatever the style of the song it is always underpinned by melody. Whether driven by the music or the by the vocals, there is a genuine melodic feel to the album.Mark Tansley, who was a pioneer of UK alternative music in the 1990s and was at the forefront of integrating electronic sounds into the goth scene with his cult band SUSPIRIA, is not one to dwell on the past, and the music he has written for RAZORFADE is another giant leap forward! Add to this the pensive lyrics and deep vocal styling of Clifford Ennis and you'll quickly understand why this band should appeal to fans of dark alternative, goth and electronic music alike. RAZORFADE are effectively reinterpreting alternative electronic music for those with a darker side by blending influences from the alternative 1980s new wave and gothic rock movements with current electro sounds.On "This Clear Shining" RAZORFADE write about distorted truths, wasted lives, and unwinnable wars. They translate their huge emotional outpouring into sinister melodic tunes, by successfully blending electronic music with dark alternative/goth, the outcome being music which sits perfectly in the middle of both genres, promisingly described by journalists as a 'brilliant melodic melange of the SISTERS OF MERCY and DEPECHE MODE'!This limited edition carton box version of the album also contains the bonus disc "Re-Shining" including special club, radio and extended versions of the album tracks as well as a few exclusive remixes.

LEAETHER STRIP return with a 2CD box set including the "Dark  Passages" motion soundtrack disc plus the new special studio album "Seasons Change – I Don't".After having paid homage to one of his mentors (John Carpenter) on his "Hælloween" EP, Claus Larsen now goes one level further by creating the complete soundtrack for the "Dark Passages" movie directed by Cesar Cruz. The alchemy of their creative union shows how much both men have been inspiring each other and how they have made each other's dreams come true: "I was really inspired by the script, so one song turned into three and then in a few weeks there was a full album. I just dropped everything I had going on at the time. This was what I had been waiting for since I had hair on my head" says Claus Larsen. "I have been a fan of AE for as long as I started Outworld Entertainment. I guess you can call it 'fate' or something. I first heard "Strap Me Down" on a compilation and I was instantly hooked! I have been listening to AE ever since. Working with Claus has been a dream come true. Claus has become a dedicated and talented friend/team member during this project. It was amazing to work with him. The man is a machine!" adds Cesar Cruz who recently won a new award for the video clip he made for LEÆTHER STRIP's previous album song "Love Me or Die".The "Dark Passages" CD features the complete versions of the songs to be used in the movie (including a bunch of vocal songs) and transports you straight into the film's sombre and dense atmosphere. It is a wonderful first glimpse into a film that you will all hopefully soon discover at one of the festivals where it's already lined up, or at its scheduled premieres. Hopefully this poignant soundtrack is the first in a series of future collaborations between both artists, challenging and taking them into other sides of their strong respective personalities.This 2CD box also includes a new fourteen-track album, aptly titled "Seasons Change – I Don't", presenting new songs recorded just after the soundtrack. From the big beat of "Black Magic Man" through the dramatic feel of the depressive "Dead Swan", from the sexy and clubby groove of "Bondage Is Not a Crime" to the tearful intimacy of the dark electro title song, there are many hit moments on this new LEÆTHER STRIP tour de force. Fans will also be thrilled by the extended versions of the soundtrack songs "Dark Passages" and "Everything Dies" which both have club-hit potential, as well as by new versions of the unavoidable "My Shadow Is Your Home" and "Voluntary Confinement". Last, but not least, two special collaborations with MORTIIS and EHRON VONALLEN put the cherry on the cake. Seasons change… LEÆTHER STRIP does NOT!
