| The sulphurous German duo, Nadine and Pedro Engel, unleash their latest controversial masterpiece, "Zuchthaus," a full-length album that embodies darkness in its rawest form.
With the unapologetic rallying cry "Fight! Victory or Death," ACYLUM thrusts us back onto the merciless battlegrounds, where the echoes of war persist eternally. Humanity, it seems, remains blind to its own follies, perpetuating a cycle of chaos. ACYLUM’s trademark confrontational stance immerses us in the unbearable ambiance of the Cold War, gulags, murders, massacres, betrayals, madness, and unrelenting misery.
This is undeniably ACYLUM’s most sombre and despair-ridden album to date. The tone plunges to profound depths of tragedy, the beats resound with martial heaviness, the music emanates noir coldness, vocals are aggressively charged with emotion, and the atmosphere lingers in profound sadness. ACYLUM’s potent and sinister sound seizes you, gripping your throat and suffocating you with its oppressive industrial noise sequences, fortified by bombastic orchestrations and sense-inflicting vocal sample manipulations. A mystical touch of Nordic mythology also looms ominously in the background.
Despite the darkness, ACYLUM’s unique songwriting alchemy transforms these harsh electro-dark tunes into addictive melodic anthems from the underworld. Tracks like "Gabriel" and "1000 Meilen" introduce slower, melancholic moments, evoking the haunting sound of their TOTEM OBSCURA side-project.
Let the parade of fools commence…
The initial release of the album emerges as a limited 2CD digipak edition, featuring remixes by formidable bands including :WUMPSCUT:, SUPREME COURT, DIFFUZION, DARKNESS ON DEMAND, STUDIO-X, NEIKKA RPM, RROYCE, PROJECT ERRATIC, WINTERHART, SAY JUST WORDS, HUMAN VAULT, ALIEN:NATION, DYSKOLIA, DEADLY INJECTION. The cacophony of darkness awaits.

| SYNAPSYCHE’s 4th studio album, "Anti," takes you on an intense journey through 12 tracks of melodic dark elektro / industrial pop. This conceptual release delves into the rebellious odyssey of a 21st-century-born Messiah, diverging from the path of Jesus Christ. Each song carries a double meaning, touching on provocative themes such as euthanasia, betrayal, adultery, feminism, love’s demise, and occultism à la Lavey/Crowley.
The Italian duo skilfully guides listeners through a blasphemous sonic experience, narrating the unconventional saga of their "Anti"-hero. From the euphoric synthetic creation of a new messiah in a world in chaos and in search of guidance, to the temptations of death and ascension, miracles, passion, and ultimately, a descent into pathetic misery.
"Anti" showcases SYNAPSYCHE’s mastery, seamlessly blending opposites – distorted darkness with ecstatic grooves, catchy melodies with incisive assaults. With 12 hard-hitting tracks, the album features a vocal guest appearance by AESTHETIC PERFECTION and LORD OF THE LOST on "Silvertongue" and "The Last Dying Flame," respectively, both also contributing to this delicious clash of harsh devilish growls with heavenly future pop choruses.
In this magnum opus, SYNAPSYCHE exudes majesty, elegance, and might, mirroring their "Anti-hero". Their sound identity spans dark-electro to synthpop, industrial to EBM, aggrotech to techno, appealing to fans of VNV NATION, COMBICHRIST, SOLAR FAKE, FADERHEAD, GRENDEL, and more.
There’s no turning back—"It’s too late to apologize." God is dead, long live SYNAPSYCHE!
The limited edition 2CD digipak of the album includes a lush booklet artwork and an exclusive bonus CD, "Apocryphal Psalms," featuring unique versions and remixes by artists such as DARKNESS ON DEMAND, LOVELORN DOLLS, AIBOFORCEN, ACYLUM, MISS SUICIDE, FRAGILE CHILD, ZEITGEIST2511, STATIK SEKT, MATT HART, DILATORY DESTRUCTION…

| Len Lemeire’s declaration, ‘No boundaries, no compromises, only chaos and machines!’ sets the tone for IMPLANT’s groundbreaking “Chaos Machines” trilogy, a sonic journey into the heart of 2024. Brace yourself for the inaugural chapter, “The Chaos Machines Part 1 – No More Flies On The Windscreen” hitting you with unapologetic force on CD, with vinyl and more conceptual companions following suit later this year.
This 12th studio album is a testament to 3 years of unbridled sonic exploration, an audacious clash against algorithms, and a rollercoaster of accidental genius from the dynamic duo of bearded divas Jan D’hooghe and Len Lemeire. Far from losing control, the Belgian pair opted to let chaos reign, transforming mellow ambient tracks into mesmerizing psy-trance industrial cuts with poignant vocals. Old school EBM and new wave roots morph seamlessly into addictive electro-pop featuring the lush vocals of NOEMI AURORA. Dark moments evoke echoes of early SKINNY PUPPY, KLINIK’s icy elektro, and the subtle flavors of NIN.
Immerse yourself in the pulsating beat, ready to rock, groove, and reflect with IMPLANT’s electrifying fusion of sound and substance. This hypnotic album, filled with noise, melody, bass, beat, and tongue-in-cheek lyrics, unfolds like a collection of intricate sonic tales, revealing hidden parts and offering new clues with each addictive play.
