📅 Mark Your Calendar The full interview will go live on EvolRadio.com on Friday, December 1st, 2025—just in time to fuel your weekend with insight, attitude, and the unapologetic truth of a band forged in circuits and scars.
Digital World Audio has just dropped a powerful new strike from the shadows — PROMETHEUS FLAME returns with the explosive single “March On Blaze,” a rallying cry forged in smoke, steel, and cyber-industrial fire.
🔥 PROMETHEUS FLAME — A Rising Force in the Dark Electronic Vanguard PROMETHEUS FLAME has been slowly carving a place in the global industrial underground, mixing militant electronic rhythms with cinematic atmospheres and razor-edged production. Known for a sound that blends dark electro, post-apocalyptic ambience, and martial industrial influence, PROMETHEUS FLAME continues to evolve with each new release — and “March On Blaze” is their most incendiary offering yet.
🔥 “March On Blaze” — A Call to Stand, Fight, and Survive Built on thunderous percussion, smoldering synths, and the unmistakable mechanical heartbeat of Digital World Audio’s signature aesthetic, “March On Blaze” is a track that hits like a strike of lightning across a war-torn horizon. It carries the spirit of rebellion, the weight of resistance, and the full fury of PROMETHEUS FLAME’s sonic arsenal.
🔥 Digital World Audio Continues Its Tactical Expansion Released via Digital World Audio, one of the most consistent players in underground industrial, the track arrives as part of the label’s continued push to spotlight high-intensity electronic warfare from emerging and established artists alike.
DAWN OF ASHES Announce Their Next Chapter: Reinfecting the Scars 💀🔥
Dawn of Ashes emerge once more from the void with a devastating new era, officially announcing Reinfecting the Scars, a violent and ambitious expansion of their blackened industrial legacy. A band already synonymous with cinematic horror, electronic brutality, and extreme metal intensity, Dawn of Ashes now returns with a release that digs deeper into their mythology — reopening old wounds only to infect them anew.
Built on the foundation of Infecting the Scars and Scars of the Broken, this new chapter accelerates the band’s evolution. The new material fuses serrated electronics, ritual-heavy atmospheres, and suffocating aggression into a sound engineered for both internal destruction and external domination. This is Dawn of Ashes at their most sharpened, their most emotionally charged, and their most sonically dangerous.
A Resurrection of Fury
For long-time followers, Reinfecting the Scars feels like a resurrection of the darker DOA eras — reimagined through modern production and a more vicious narrative voice. For those newly stepping into their world, this is the perfect initiation: a chance to witness one of industrial metal’s most enduring forces in full, unrestrained form.
Kristof Bathory continues to push the band’s thematic universe into deeper psychological territory. The release explores trauma, spiritual rot, and transformation through darkness — themes that have defined Dawn of Ashes since their inception but now manifest with even greater clarity and intention. Musically, the band drops listeners into a corrupted ritual space: trance-like ambience suddenly exploding into blast-beat violence, mechanical synth strikes, and guttural proclamations from the abyss.
The DOA Ascension
Sonically, fans can expect a perfect storm of industrial metal, aggrotech, atmospheric blackened textures, and hybridized cinematic sound design. DOA’s ability to merge genres without losing identity is on full display here — a further evolution of their signature aesthetic, sharpened by years of performance, experimentation, and spiritual excavation.
As Dawn of Ashes continue to dominate festival stages and underground circles alike, this new release feels like a culmination — and a new beginning. Reinfecting the Scars isn’t nostalgia. It’s transformation. It’s escalation. It’s the next mutation of a band built on blood, nightmares, and visionary sonic violence.
When the scars reopen, the question is simple: Will you turn away — or lean in closer?
British industrial techno/gabba powerhouse JUNKIE KUT has dropped his ferocious new single “OutPSYders”, a battle cry for the misfits, freaks, and free thinkers of a homogenized world. The track is now available on all major streaming platforms and serves as a fiery follow-up to his acclaimed 2024 album ekstasis.
⚙️ A Battle Cry for the Outsiders
“So many of us struggle to live in mainstream culture,” says JUNKIE KUT, “so I wanted to make a track of optimistic rage—dedicated to the people who don’t fit in; the goths, the ravers, the punks, the geeks, the freaks. It’s a battle cry for individuality in a painfully homogenous world.”
“OutPSYders” captures that energy with a wall of distorted industrial beats and relentless gabba fury, fusing defiance and euphoria into one explosive statement of rebellion.
🔊 The Sonic Weaponry of JUNKIE KUT
Known for fusing industrial, punk, metal, speedcore, gabba, techno, and trance, JUNKIE KUT stands as one of the most radical forces in the underground scene. After igniting main stages at Resistanz Festival and Infest, he continues to shatter genre boundaries with unfiltered energy and raw intensity.
Having performed alongside Aesthetic Perfection, Zardonic, Deviant UK, and Ayria, and tearing up legendary hardcore events like Hardshock, Pokkie Herrie, Terrordrang, and Berlin’s F*ckParade, his cult following stretches across Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK.
🔥 Radical Sound, Revolutionary Spirit
Fueled by counterculture and neo-shamanic visions of liberation, JUNKIE KUT channels chaos into catharsis. His sound—described as “optimistic rage”—transforms despair into movement and rebellion into art.
This is more than music—it’s a sonic ritual for those who refuse to conform. This is music for the outPSYders.

U.S. electro-industrial act genCAB rises from the depths once more with their haunting new single, “Open Grave,” out now via Metropolis Records. Released on October 31, 2025, this brooding club anthem drags listeners into a confessional spiral of self-sabotage, decay, and emotional dissection—set to a driving, dancefloor-ready beat.
💿 Includes:
Open Grave
Open Grave (Unsolved Remix by Lost Signal)
Last (Nine Inch Nails cover)
🩸 A Dance with Self-Destruction
“The song explores the decay of our own undoing. I’m a self-destructive person, and ‘Open Grave’ is about lying in my own mess that I create for myself,” confesses David Dutton, the creative force behind genCAB.
Dutton adds, “Most of the advice we get is to keep our inner pain hidden, so we isolate further. This song is me laying that pain bare—for anyone to hear, whenever they need it. It’s more accessible than my past work, but it carries a message that’s universal. Sometimes life is just a dance track and an outlet to lose yourself. Who knows what’s left when you tear yourself apart—but at least it’s honest.”
⚙️ genCAB’s Sonic Evolution
Since their 2008 debut II transMuter, genCAB has been a force in the darker corners of electronic music, expertly merging EBM, synth-pop, and alternative rock. After a long hiatus that saw Dutton and drummer Tim Van Horn touring with Aesthetic Perfection, genCAB returned in 2022 with Thoughts Beyond Words and the Everything You See Is Mine EP—showcasing a renewed energy and emotional intensity.
Their 2023 Metropolis release Signature Flaws introduced dreamlike shoegaze and post-hardcore influences, while 2024’s III I II (THIRD EYE GEMINI) reimagined and expanded upon their earliest material with modern, atmospheric depth. Now, Open Grave continues that evolution—melding catharsis with rhythm, and ruin with revelation.
The long-dormant U.S. electro-industrial powerhouse Flesh Field has returned once again, unleashing a fully remastered edition of their 2001 classic Belief Control. Released via Metropolis Records on October 31, 2025, this updated version breathes new life into one of the genre’s most influential releases.
🔥 Includes the singles:
Allegiance 2025
The Truth Within
⚙️ A Legacy of Power and Precision
Originally founded in 1996 by Ian Ross in Columbus, Ohio, Flesh Field quickly carved their identity with a fusion of intricate programming, dark symphonic textures, and emotional ferocity. Their debut, Viral Extinction (1999), announced their arrival in the underground, while 2001’s Belief Control took their sound to a new level — merging bombastic orchestration with machine-driven aggression.
The album’s success led to a partnership with Metropolis Records, which handled U.S. distribution for their next full-length, Strain. The record’s expanded instrumentation—featuring layered guitars, choral elements, and thunderous percussion—cemented Flesh Field’s place among industrial music’s elite.
🧠 Silence, Then Rebirth
After nearly two decades of inactivity, Ross reignited Flesh Field with the politically charged 2023 concept album Voice Of The Echo Chamber, followed by the Voice Of Reason EP in 2024. Both releases marked a creative resurgence and paved the way for a comprehensive remaster campaign through Metropolis.
The Belief Control (2025 Edition) follows the June reissue of Viral Extinction, with the full Flesh Field discography set for remastered release in the coming months. Even more thrilling—Ross has confirmed that a brand-new Flesh Field album is nearing completion.
The ever-fierce I Ya Toyah returns with a new surge of energy through “Denial (Aesthetic Perfection Remix)”, reimagining her haunting industrial sound with Daniel Graves’ signature electronic venom. This remix blends icy synth lines, pulsating bass, and a dose of Aesthetic Perfection’s dark-pop flair, transforming the original into a dancefloor inferno for the disillusioned and defiant.
Fans can expect the remix to amplify the raw emotion and cyberpunk tension that I Ya Toyah is known for—twisting the edges of pain and beauty into something electrifying.
🎶 Listen Now:
💬 “Denial is about confronting the uncomfortable truths we try to bury,” says I Ya Toyah. “This remix turns that confrontation into a dark celebration—a scream disguised as a song.”
⚡ About I Ya Toyah
Born in Poland and now based in Chicago, I Ya Toyah’s name translates roughly to “It’s just me”—a fitting declaration for the one-woman army behind her music. Blending industrial, darkwave, synth-pop, and electronic rock, she writes, records, and produces everything herself, championing a fiercely DIY ethos under her own label Femme Fatale Records.
Her work delves deep into themes of mental health, human rights, and self-empowerment, often donating proceeds from her music and merchandise to causes such as the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and Animal Hope & Wellness. I Ya Toyah views her project not merely as music, but as a movement—a rallying cry for individuality and strength in dark times.
Her debut album Code Blue (2018) introduced her as a formidable voice in the industrial underground, with subsequent releases and collaborations pushing her further into global recognition. “Denial (Aesthetic Perfection Remix)” continues that legacy, fusing raw emotion with machine-driven precision.
🌍 Upcoming Tour Dates (Post November 1, 2025)
I Ya Toyah is currently bringing her electrified stage presence to Europe, delivering an immersive live show that merges sound, light, and sheer intensity.

The legendary Icon of Coil return with a remastered reissue of their groundbreaking debut, Serenity Is The Devil, marking 25 years since the album that helped define the futurepop and EBM movement.
“This digitally enhanced remaster sounds slicker and still has that heady EBM vibe their fans covet and the band are famous for, with accessible, melodic and brooding vocals.” — Devolution
“One of the most influential acts in the dark electronic genre, with vibes of a souped-up Bauhaus or Peter Murphy on acid.” — Penny Black Music
“This release will transport you to the year 2000! An incomparable sound that conjures up memories of dance-through nights and one’s own youth.” — Orkus
Formed in 1997 by Andy LaPlegua (later of Combichrist), Icon of Coil quickly evolved from a solo project into a full-fledged powerhouse with Sebastian Komor and Christian Lund joining soon after. Their blend of driving beats, melodic synths, and brooding vocals set a new benchmark for dark electronic music.
Their debut Serenity Is The Devil (2000) soared to the Top 3 on the German DAC Alternative Chart, followed by The Soul Is In The Software (2002), which claimed No. 1. By the time Machines Are Us (2004) dropped, the trio had firmly cemented their status among the greats — alongside VNV Nation and Covenant — touring across Europe and North America with unmatched intensity.
Now, the 25th Anniversary Edition of Serenity Is The Devil brings the original energy roaring back with enhanced digital clarity and an exclusive unreleased track, “SEC FOUR.”

💀 Deep Dive into the Universe of Icon of Coil: Facebook
Today, darkwave and synthpop powerhouse Brittany Bindrim drops her new full-length Counterpoison, a record that radiates cinematic tension, propulsive beats, and raw emotion. This latest release marks a fierce, faster-paced evolution from her 2024 debut Velella Velella, diving headfirst into the shadows of duality, resistance, and renewal.
🔥 A Transformation Through Sound At its core, Counterpoison is a story of transformation — an antidote for the toxins that corrode us both personally and collectively. The album embodies the concept of art as alchemy, turning pain, betrayal, and societal decay into fuel for empowerment and rebirth.
🎛 Sonic Craftsmanship Written and performed by Bindrim herself, the album was produced and mixed by Matt McJunkins (A Perfect Circle, Puscifer, Eagles of Death Metal, Poppy) and mastered by Ken “Hiwatt” Marshall. The result? A visceral, high-voltage soundscape pulsing with cinematic grandeur and industrial precision.
💿 Out Now Counterpoison is available today on limited edition vinyl, CD, and across all digital and streaming platforms. Bindrim will also bring the album’s dark energy to life through select performances in Seattle, Portland, and Los Angeles.
Electro-industrial and synth-pop icon Assemblage 23 — the project of Tom Shear — returns with “Believe,” the powerful new single from the upcoming album Null, out November 7th, 2025 via Metropolis Records.
✨ Finding Light in the Static “This song is about believing that there is hope for better things, even with the state of the world as it is today,” explains Shear. “We are responsible for making the kind of world we live in. In the face of bad times, sometimes the most subversive thing you can do is have hope.”
“Believe” marks the second single from Null — Assemblage 23’s tenth studio album and the long-awaited follow-up to 2020’s Mourn. The record also features the recent single “Tolerate” and showcases Shear’s trademark fusion of melodic precision, emotional resonance, and electronic craftsmanship that has defined his two-decade legacy in the dark electronic scene.
💀 Legacy of Innovation and Emotion Since emerging with Contempt at the turn of the millennium, Assemblage 23 has remained a defining force in futurepop, breaking from European dominance with emotionally charged songwriting and razor-sharp production. Shear’s lyrics — often touching on themes of loss, depression, resilience, and hope — have built a deeply loyal following and continue to resonate across generations of listeners.
British industrial/EBM visionary ESA has unveiled Pound of Flesh, a three-part music film drawn from his latest album, Sounds for Your Happiness, released July 5th via Negative Gain Productions.
🎬 Watch “Pound of Flesh” here:YouTube 💽 Order Sounds for Your Happiness: Bandcamp
🔥 A Vision of Darkness and Redemption Filmed across Bangkok, Thailand, and Manchester, UK, Pound of Flesh marks ESA’s most ambitious visual journey yet. Starring Tan Toafa Maneepasopchock (Gotham, Oceans 10) and Panita Hutacharern, alongside a cast of Thai actors, the film weaves a story of torment, astral projection, and spiritual decay.
The narrative follows a soul plagued by inner demons who learns to leap between bodies through astral projection—only to discover that pain cannot be escaped, merely transferred. As madness spreads through each new vessel, the demons close in, leading to an explosive exorcism sequence that blurs the line between spiritual horror and industrial art.
🎞️ A Sonic and Visual Obsession Blacker describes Pound of Flesh as both “a powerful narrative experience” and “a love letter to Thailand,” a country that has deeply influenced his creative evolution. The film’s haunting visuals pair perfectly with ESA’s grinding, genre-defying soundtrack—a fusion of EBM, industrial, black metal, dark ambient, punk, techno, and power noise.
As ESA declares:
“I’m moving into the place between the walls you made for me.”
⚡ About the Album — Sounds for Your Happiness A ferocious blend of chaos and catharsis, Sounds for Your Happiness channels everything from Gesaffelstein to Godflesh, Ulver, and Pitchshifter, crafting a brutal electronic odyssey that’s both punishing and euphoric.

💀 A brutal bilingual anthem of betrayal, rage, and rebellion
Industrial-electro legends HOCICO have joined forces with Rafael Reyes (PRAYERS) to deliver one of their most ferocious collaborations yet — “Hey Tú!”. This blistering fusion of Mexican industrial fury and cholo goth defiance burns with raw energy, unapologetic truth, and pure sonic fire.
“Hey Tú!” hits like a digital riot — fast-paced, venomous, and impossible not to move to. Fueled by Hocico’s signature EBM venom and PRAYERS’ dark swagger, the track unleashes a violent mix of industrial beats, jagged basslines, and bilingual lyrical carnage. The chemistry between Erk Aicrag’s feral intensity and Rafael Reyes’ snarling presence is explosive — together, they embody two fearless voices of Latin darkness rising in unison.
🔥 Physical Release Details (Out December 19, 2025): Pre-order now ➤ hocico.lnk.to/HeyTu
Lyrically, “Hey Tú!” is pure confrontation — a bilingual declaration of war against betrayal, hypocrisy, and false mysticism. From “You’re a poser, you’re a loser, you’re a fucking fake” to “Soy el infierno que viene por más,” this track spits truth and fire with no apologies. It’s a sonic exorcism, a manifesto of resistance, and a call to reclaim power.
💣 “Hey Tú!” is a battle cry — Hocico and Prayers united in fury, rhythm, and rebellion.
German dark electro-pop visionaries ROTERSAND have dropped not one but two electrifying singles — “It Was Night” (released September 5th) and “Train” (out now, October 3rd) — further expanding the digital edition of their latest full-length album Don’t Become The Thing You Hated. Both tracks were previously available only on the CD version and are now streaming globally.
The new material continues the duo’s signature balance of brooding atmosphere and intelligent rhythm, uniting philosophical reflection with sharp-edged electronic craftsmanship. These songs arrive as part of the ongoing evolution of Rascal Nikov (vocals, electronics) and Krischan Jan-Eric Wesenberg (electronics), whose work has long blurred the lines between dancefloor power and emotional introspection.
💀 A Dark Reflection of Modern Times Following their previous singles “Private Firmament (I Fell For You)” and “Sexiness of Slow,” the album stands as both a cultural critique and a sonic manifesto. Don’t Become The Thing You Hated captures the existential unease of an era defined by division and disillusionment. ROTERSAND uses their trademark precision sound design to question how, in fighting oppression and ignorance, one might risk adopting the same destructive tendencies they resist.
Their latest offerings—“It Was Night” and “Train”—fuse propulsive industrial-electronic energy with haunting melodic beauty. The result is a sound both intellectual and visceral: densely layered synthscapes, crisp percussion, and an emotive tension that mirrors the contradictions of our age.
💀 The Message Beneath the Machines Lyrically, these songs extend the philosophical pulse of the album—inviting listeners to reflect on complicity, anger, and empathy in a world that thrives on chaos. ROTERSAND’s latest work doesn’t just provide a soundtrack for dark nights of the soul—it demands introspection, calling for vigilance against the forces that distort truth and erode identity.
🖤 Don’t Become The Thing You Hated — Out Now Tracklisting:
Industrial darkwave innovators FIX8:SED8 have released the Octagram (Deluxe Edition), giving fans an expanded and enhanced journey into their signature sound. This deluxe edition offers reimagined tracks, exclusive remixes, and bonus material that deepens the immersive, haunting atmospheres fans have come to expect from the project.

Dark electro visionary Sapphira Vee has just unveiled her upcoming release, Unfolding, a deeply personal and atmospheric exploration set to captivate listeners across the darkwave and industrial spectrum. The announcement marks a new era for the artist, known for weaving ethereal melodies, brooding electronics, and raw emotional power into immersive soundscapes.
🌑 A New Chapter in Sound and Spirit
“Unfolding” promises to dive deep into themes of self-discovery, resilience, and metamorphosis — a reflection on emerging from chaos and reclaiming strength. With lush textures, haunting vocals, and cinematic production, this release is shaping up to be one of Sapphira Vee’s most evocative works to date.
Fans can expect the signature fusion of dark electronic atmospheres and emotive storytelling that have defined her sound and earned her a loyal following across the global underground scene.
The pulse of the underground just got louder — ULTRA SUNN return with their electrifying new single, The Beast In You, now available across all platforms. The track strikes with the signature blend of darkwave, EBM, and post-punk energy that has made the Brussels duo one of the most commanding forces in modern electronic music.
The Beast In You prowls through the depths of human emotion — confronting the duality within us all. It’s a sonic exploration of instinct, fear, and control, set to throbbing basslines, haunting synths, and hypnotic vocals. This is ULTRA SUNN at their most visceral and cinematic, balancing aggression and elegance in a perfectly controlled storm of sound.
The digital decay continues as OneZeroCypher unleashes their latest dark electronic opus, Fractured Memories, out now through DSBP Records. This release dives deep into the psychological breakdown of memory, emotion, and machine consciousness—where industrial rhythms grind against cybernetic despair.
Fusing elements of EBM, dark electro, and technoid distortion, Fractured Memories captures the essence of post-human reflection. It’s an auditory labyrinth where logic fails, identity fractures, and the cold pulse of machinery becomes the only heartbeat left. Every track feels like a corrupted data fragment—echoing pain, resistance, and resurrection within the circuitry.
Each beat carries the raw tension of isolation and the beauty of collapse. For fans of Mentallo & The Fixer, Front Line Assembly, and Velvet Acid Christ, this is the perfect transmission from the void.
Electro-industrial duo KLACK has surprised fans with a brand-new live release, In Case You Didn’t Feel Like Staying Up (Live), captured during their electrifying performance at the Cold Waves XIII afterparty last Saturday.
🎶 A Night Worth Reliving
KLACK’s set at the Chicago festival afterparty showcased their trademark retro-future EBM stomp, synth grit, and dancefloor nostalgia, fueling an already unforgettable weekend for the industrial community. The duo recorded the performance in full and decided to release it for fans—whether you were there moshing in the crowd or tuning in from afar, now you can relive the moment.
🔥 The Cold Waves Legacy
Now in its thirteenth year, Cold Waves has become one of the most vital gatherings for industrial, post-punk, and electronic music fans worldwide. KLACK’s afterparty performance cemented their role as one of the scene’s most exciting modern acts bridging classic body music with fresh, forward-looking energy. This live release feels like both a celebration of the festival’s legacy and a testament to KLACK’s ever-growing reputation.
🤝 Music with Purpose
KLACK isn’t just about beats—they’re about community. To that end, all profits from the release this weekend will be donated to DARKEST BEFORE DAWN, a nonprofit charity that supports nightlife, hospitality, and music industry workers through mental health services and crisis aid. By picking up the album, fans can experience the raw electricity of the show while directly supporting a cause tied to the music community.
Industrial noise entity VERFÜHRERVERGELTER has just dropped their latest transmission, Post-Void / Pre-Body—a release that blurs the line between collapse and rebirth, silence and circuitry, decay and resurrection.
⚡ A Harsh Emission from the In-Between The release arrives as five sonic bursts described as “transmitted from the primordial soup of decomposed flesh and corroded PCBs.” Post-Void / Pre-Body is not crafted as a soundtrack or a traditional soundscape—it’s a raw dissection, an exposed noise corpus stitched together from tissue, glitches, and electronic residue.
💀 Between Rot and Simulation With each track, VERFÜHRERVERGELTER drags the listener through liminal corridors:
Between shutdown and reboot.
Between rot and simulation.
Between meaning and total refusal.
The result is a chaotic yet strangely autonomic pulse—harsh noise refusing narrative, rejecting closure, and leaving behind only corrupted fragments.
🔥 The Artist Speaks in Transmission As VERFÜHRERVERGELTER declares:
“Every transmission is a scream. But no one remembers how to listen. Corruption complete. Still leaking… No closure. No cleanse.”
Canadian industrial/electronic duo Antigen Shift return with their brand-new release Superheavy Particle, unleashed today through Artoffact Records.
Led by Nick Thériault and Jairus Khan, Antigen Shift carve out their signature sound—an electrifying hybrid of industrial noise, dark EBM, and cinematic textures. Superheavy Particle is one of their most ambitious works to date, fusing tense atmospheres, glitch-laced rhythms, and distorted electronics into a sonic force that is both visceral and immersive.
A recent teaser offers a glimpse of the album’s soundscape, showcasing Antigen Shift’s ability to balance chaos and control with masterful precision.
Formed in the early 2000s, Antigen Shift began as Thériault’s solo project before Khan joined, transforming the act into a formidable duo. Over two decades, they’ve released material on labels like Ad Noiseam, Frozen Empire Media, and Spectre, steadily building a reputation for fearless experimentation.
In 2024, Antigen Shift signed with Artoffact Records, bringing their back catalog under the label’s wing. Since then, they’ve reissued classic albums like Brotherhood and dropped powerful new singles including “Because I Want,” further cementing their place in the global industrial/electronic underground.

Industrial innovator Author & Punisher (aka Tristan Shone) has released the third and final single, “Titmouse”, ahead of his highly anticipated new album Nocturnal Birding, arriving October 3, 2025 via Relapse Records.
🖤 A Sonic Trek Through Fatigue & Survival
“Titmouse” is one of Shone’s most intricate compositions to date—layering pounding machine rhythms, dense synths, mechanical guitars, and guttural vocals into what he describes as a “topographical trek.” Lyrically, the track confronts the mental and physical exhaustion of migration, evoking the relentless endurance demanded when traversing vast landscapes with minimal supplies.
Shone explains: “‘Titmouse’ pushes me technically and physically as a performer. It’s a grueling track that mirrors the struggles it’s inspired by, carrying the listener through waves of exhaustion and perseverance.”
🐦 Birds as Blueprints
Much of Nocturnal Birding takes direct inspiration from avian life, with riffs, rhythms, and melodies drawn from the tonal patterns of actual bird calls. Earlier singles like “Titanis” and “Thrush” showcased this unique sonic methodology, while “Titmouse” pushes the concept further—transforming birdsong into industrial weaponry.

Two underground heavyweights — Daniel McCullough of Silver Walks and Athan Maroulis of NØIR — have joined forces for a chilling reinterpretation of Cyberaktif’s legendary Wax Trax! classic “Nothing Stays.” This haunting cover marks the first new material from either project in quite some time, and it’s every bit as dark, layered, and timely as you’d hope.
🕸 A Collaboration Across Continents
True to its name, “Nothing Stays” embodies the fractured, borderless world we live in. Not a single artist involved was ever in the same room.
Athan Maroulis tracked vocals in New York City.
Valentina Veil (VV & The Void) added ethereal backing vocals from Berlin.
Daniel McCullough programmed the music in Lancaster, PA.
The single was mixed in Los Angeles by Dan Evans (Die Warzau).
Finally, it was mastered by Eric Oehler (KLACK) in Madison, WI.
The result? A globe-spanning collaboration that still feels like it was conjured in one shadowy, smoke-filled studio.
🔥 The EP & Remixes
Alongside the main track, the EP comes armed with beat-heavy, floor-destroying remixes courtesy of S Y Z Y G Y X, genCAB, and KLACK — each pushing the song into fresh, pulsing territory for DJs and dark music devotees alike.

Blvsphemy Records has dropped a sinister new release, giving Biocarbon13’s “Wrong Shade of Black” a fresh, venomous twist courtesy of Arzenik. This remix plunges deeper into the industrial void, layering distortion, menace, and pounding rhythms that drag you into its dark embrace.
⚡ The Remix Experience
Arzenik injects an entirely new pulse into the track, amplifying its bleak atmospherics while keeping Biocarbon13’s raw intensity intact. The remix twists familiar shadows into sharper edges — this isn’t just a reimagining, it’s an escalation.
Biocarbon13 has consistently delivered cutting-edge industrial soundscapes, and this collaboration with Blvsphemy Records and Arzenik proves the project’s ability to evolve without compromise. “Wrong Shade of Black (Arzenik Remix)” stands as a testament to dark creativity — unapologetic, abrasive, and impossible to ignore.
