FRONTAL BOUNDARY Descend Deeper Into Ruin With “Failure (Bonus Edition)” 💀⚙️

Alfa Matrix has officially unleashed “Failure (Bonus Edition)”, the long-awaited full-length statement from American industrial agitators FRONTAL BOUNDARY — and it’s nothing short of a relentless psychological onslaught. Following the bile-drenched fury of Hate and the suffocating intensity of Faith, the trio return with a release that stares straight into collapse, rage, despair, and the fragile glimmer of hope that survives the wreckage.

A Brutal Core of 12 Tracks 🩸

At its heart, Failure is a merciless examination of the human condition. Across 12 devastating tracks, FRONTAL BOUNDARY tear open themes of anger, self-destruction, disillusionment, and emotional fracture, channeling them through crushing rhythms, corrosive textures, and an atmosphere that feels both intimate and apocalyptic. This is industrial music at its most confrontational — cold, punishing, and unapologetically honest.

Bonus Edition: Total System Overdrive 🔥

The experience doesn’t stop with the main album. The limited 2CD digipak edition pushes Failure far beyond its breaking point, adding 12 exclusive bonus tracks and remixes that reforge the album into new, club-annihilating forms.

A devastating roster of collaborators — including UNTER NULL, VISCERA DRIP, PYGMY CHILDREN, MISERIA ULTIMA, HER OWN WORLD, FACT PATTERN, BLAKLIGHT, DREAD RISKS, CONTRACULT, and LIVERNOIS — tear into FRONTAL BOUNDARY’s material, mutating it into fresh weapons of sonic destruction. The band themselves also return with their own punishing reworks, ensuring the bonus disc hits just as hard as the original.

Live at Dark Force Fest 2026 🖤

FRONTAL BOUNDARY are also gearing up to bring the Failure experience to a live stage this spring with a **scheduled appearance at **Dark Force Fest 2026 — the three-day goth/industrial music festival running from May 1–3, 2026, at the Sheraton Parsippany in New Jersey. This event gathers underground dark wave, industrial, and alternative acts from around the world for performances, club events, vendors, panels, and more. Dark Force Fest+1

Expect FRONTAL BOUNDARY to deliver their crushing new material live, surrounded by fellow heavy hitters in the scene and a weekend of immersive industrial energy.

Industrial Collapse, Perfected 💀

Failure (Bonus Edition) isn’t just an expansion — it’s an escalation. A deeper plunge into darkness, sharper edges, and a clear declaration that FRONTAL BOUNDARY are operating at full destructive capacity.

Alfa Matrix, Cutting Edge Culture Updates, New Music Release

FRONTAL BOUNDARY signs with Alfa Matrix and debuts with the explosive EBM/industrial EP, “Hate.”

Brace yourself for a full-frontal sonic assault as FRONTAL BOUNDARY unleash “Hate”, the explosive new EP that marks the band’s first strike from their upcoming full-length album “Failure” – and also celebrates their signing to leading electro-industrial label Alfa Matrix, home to genre-defining acts like FRONT 242, UNTER NULL, POUPPEE FABRIKK, ALIEN VAMPIRES or yet KOMOR KOMMANDO.

With “Hate”, FRONTAL BOUNDARY channels raw aggression and emotional turmoil into a blistering EBM/industrial anthem. “This track voices the fury felt toward those who constantly try to keep you down”, explains vocalist Krz Souls. Brendin Ross (ex-BILE, ex-INVA//ID, Dawn of Ashes, and Bornless Fire), the band’s founding member and instrumental powerhouse behind FRONTAL BOUNDARY is indeed joined by Krz Souls (ex-INVA//ID, Dawn of Ashes, Bornless Fire) on vocals and Jaysen Craves (Livernois) on synths.

Melding fire and ice, chaos and control, FRONTAL BOUNDARY’s signature sound fuses dense industrial rhythms, driving EBM beats, dark melodic leads, and infectious synthpop textures – topped with harsh, emotional vocals that sometimes veer into future pop territory. Fans of SUICIDE COMMANDO, C-LEKKTOR, COMBICHRIST, LEAETHER STRIP and ROTERSAND will feel right at home.

The “Hate” EP also includes club-destroying remixes by American industrial force FACT PATTERN and cult Alfa Matrix label-mate UNTER NULL, adding new layers of intensity to an already volatile release.

“Hate” is not just a song – it’s a statement. Welcome to FRONTAL BOUNDARY. Resistance is futile.

UNTER NULL Returns with Vengeance on New EP, “You Made A Monster”

After smashing expectations with her previous single and reigniting the fire of UNTER NULL, Erica Dunham returns with a vengeance. Her new EP, “You Made A Monster,” is a brutal, no-holds-barred confrontation with trauma, betrayal, and the silent complicity that empowers abusers.

Fueled by raw emotion and cutting honesty, the title track is a devastating dark elektro anthem built from real-life scars. It drags narcissistic abuse and its enablers into the harsh light, pulling no punches: “You knew what he did / You knew of his lies / You gave up your morals for your motherfucking pride.” This is not a song of defeat – it’s a battle cry. A reclaiming of power. A voice for the erased.

“I wrote this because I was tired of being erased”, says Erica. “It’s for anyone who has screamed the truth into a void while everyone else nodded along with the abuser”.

Also featured is the haunting yet defiant “Coming Up To Breathe”, reimagined as well in three powerful remixes: C-LEKKTOR brings his signature dark pulse, LEAETHER STRIP injects classic EBM fire with a melodic touch, and rising force FRONTAL BOUNDARY adds a fierce modern twist.

“You Made A Monster” is not just an EP. It’s a statement. It’s UNTER NULL – louder, stronger, and more intentional than ever. Play it loud. Feel every word. And never be silent again.

🎧🎶 New Music Alert: METROLAND, SYNAPSYCHE, and ELEKTROSTAUB Unleash New EPs! 🎧

Get ready for a triple dose of electronic goodness as METROLAND, SYNAPSYCHE, and ELEKTROSTAUB drop their latest EPs, each offering a unique sonic journey!

METROLAND – Reset EP

With “Reset,” Belgian conceptual techno-pop duo METROLAND delivers the fourth and final EP from their well-received album Forum. Inspired by the controversial World Economic Forum initiative, The Great Reset, this digital release marks not just the end of an EP cycle, but the culmination of METROLAND’s sonic exploration of global industrial evolution.

Anchored in critical reflection and forward-thinking beats, “Reset” offers two new versions of the original track: the compact yet dynamic “The Smaller Reset,” and its expansive, club-ready counterpart “The Greater Reset”—both infused with increased tempo and dancefloor energy. Adding further depth, the exclusive non-album track “Improving the State of the World” blends pop sensibility with pointed commentary, echoing the WEF’s aspirational slogans while inviting listeners to consider the implications of global decision-making. “Reset” is more than just a release—it is the final destination in METROLAND’s conceptual journey, closing the loop that began with “0” and reached its climax in “Forum.” The system is shutting down… ready for a reset?

SYNAPSYCHE – Muteness EP

After the sonic shockwave of “Deafness,” SYNAPSYCHE raises the stakes with “Muteness”—the second piece in their three-part concept around “Miscommunication,” dissecting the fear of self-expression in a world that rewards silence over truth. Some people never speak up. They sit on the sidelines, afraid to take a stand, blending into the background to maintain their fragile social acceptance. But silence is complicity. And SYNAPSYCHE is here to shatter the quiet with a firestorm of brutal beats, razor-sharp synths, and vocals that swing between venomous growls, electrifying clean hooks, and even a touch of rap-infused aggression. This explosive EP is backed by a dark-pop rework of FLEETWOOD MAC’s “Little Lies” and a ruthless remix of “Anti Manifesto” by STATIK SEKT—two reinventions that push the band’s boundaries even further. No more hiding. No more hesitation. Shut your muteness up and scream with SYNAPSYCHE!

ELEKTROSTAUB – Falling EP

ELEKTROSTAUB is back with “Falling”—an irresistible future pop anthem destined to ignite dancefloors. For this striking new single, mastermind Patrick Knoch teams up with none other than synthpop icon Pal Magnus Rybom of ECHO IMAGE. The result is pure electropop magic—an instant classic where sharp production meets soaring melodies! Serving as a first taste of the forthcoming album Humility, this 7-track EP doesn’t stop at just one hit. It also features “Too Far From The Pack,” a high-energy collaboration with Salva Maine (CULTURE KULTÜR), oozing club potential and emotional impact. The EP comes packed with a powerful selection of remixes by fellow Alfa Matrix artists: IMPLANT, NEUROACTIVE, 808 DOT POP, DARKNESS ON DEMAND, and remix maestro PEOPLE THEATRE—each offering a unique twist on ELEKTROSTAUB’s signature sound. With “Falling,” ELEKTROSTAUB reaffirms his knack for blending sleek production with the perfect guest vocalist. This is premium-grade future pop – emotional, melodic, and made to move you.

🎧 AESTHETISCHE – “Selling Fear” EP: Brazil’s EBM Titans Unleash a Wake-Up Call for a World on the Brink! 🎧 – 💀

From the vibrant heart of Brazil emerges AESTHETISCHE, the formidable EBM duo led by Gui Pires and Fab Viscardi, delivering a powerful sonic statement for 2025: the “Selling Fear” EP. In a reality increasingly fractured by the weight of misinformation, manipulative media, and escalating socio-political tensions, this new EP strikes with the urgency of a pounding alarm – a defiant and vital soundtrack for an era teetering on the edge.

With “Selling Fear,” AESTHETISCHE channels their signature fusion of precise electronic craftsmanship and raw, gritty intensity into six fiercely sharp tracks. These sonic creations artfully straddle the line between potent protest anthems and irresistible dance floor weapons. Drawing inspiration from the iconic legacies of FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY and the “Tyranny For You”-era FRONT 242, the duo seamlessly blends abrasive industrial textures with compelling melodic EBM grooves – a potent combination of visceral energy and intellectual depth.

From the aggressive rhythmic onslaught of the title track itself to its intriguing reinterpretations, “Selling Fear” provides multiple angles on a central, undeniable truth: resistance is not optional, and silence equates to complicity. The EP also features a fresh and impactful 2025 rework of “Everything Ends,” transforming last year’s original into a hard-hitting, club-ready anthem.

This is more than just an EP; “Selling Fear” is a sonic manifesto. AESTHETISCHE issues a rallying cry to all sonic dissidents: confront the overwhelming noise, decipher the pervasive lies, and transmute fear into the very fuel for change.

Let the machines articulate the message – and let the unvarnished truth resonate.

🎧 STAHLGEIST’s “Justice”: A Crash Course in EBM Mayhem (Out June 13th, 2025 – Detention Recommended!) 🎧 – 💀

Hailing from the heart of Hungary and wielding powerful rhythms comes STAHLGEIST, the nation’s prime purveyors of Electronic Body Music. Their latest decree, “Justice,” isn’t just an album; it’s a 13-track sonic sentencing that proves their recent “Silence” EP was merely a polite cough before a full-throated roar. The masterminds behind this auditory arraignment are István Gazdag (also known for FIRST AID 4 SOULS and FIRST AID TECH) and the vocal prosecutor Tamás Bank (of WORKER MUNKAS and INTERZONE INC.). Together, they’ve crafted their most rigorously engineered and brutally effective record to date – a dance floor demolition expertly produced and as shadowy as an oil slick in a moonless night.

Prepare for a journey that begins with the wailing sirens of the opening track, “Justice,” navigates the darkly melodic highways of “Bad Galaxy,” slams you with the percussive force of the club hit “Boots On The Ground,” and finally leaves you in the stark quietude of “Silence.” This album cleverly synthesizes the militant drive of vintage NITZER EBB, the catchy synth lines of AND ONE, the sonic venom of LEAETHER STRIP, and the precise impact of FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY, all while retaining STAHLGEIST’s distinct Central European edge. Gazdag’s production achieves a crystalline clarity within a darkly textured soundscape, while Bank’s vocals deliver biting accusations against societal ills, urban decay, and even divine comeuppance.

Forged over three years, “Justice” stands as STAHLGEIST’s artistic creed: no backing down, no leniency, just pure power channeled through compelling beats. If your musical tastes align with the classic sounds of FRONT 242 (circa 1985), the relentless intensity of :WUMPSCUT:, the early melodicism of AND ONE, or the stark aggression of NITZER EBB, then prepare to have your speakers thoroughly interrogated.

The final verdict? Unquestionably guilty of inciting total dance floor pandemonium. Initiate playback and feel the sonic gavel fall!
