🌫️ CORLYX Reimagine “The Echo” with Ethereal DreamPop Makeover

Out now via Out of Line Music — a hypnotic twist on their darkwave favorite

Hot off the release of their expansive 19-track opus Purple Pain, death pop trio CORLYX return with a lush new reinterpretation of one of their most beloved tracks. “The Echo (DreamPop Version)” delivers a softer, spectral vibe—wrapping their post-punk heartbeat in dreamy reverb and synth-soaked nostalgia.

From ’80s synthpop to darkwave and alt-rock, Corlyx continue to bend genres and expectations. Fronted by the magnetic Caitlin Stokes, joined by producer/guitarist Brandon Ashley and bassist Davide Rocco, the band splits their time between the UK and Italy, crafting a sound that resonates across continents.

Following high-profile tours alongside Blutengel, Twin Tribes, Unzucht, and collaborations with scene icons like Lord Of The Lost, Massive Ego, and Ashbury Heights, Corlyx’s influence only continues to grow. Their bold vision reached a fever pitch with Purple Pain, their third studio album—a fearless journey through post-punk decay and dreamlike sonic architecture.

🖤 Recently seen storming the stage at Wave-Gotik-Treffen (DE), Corlyx are already gearing up to mesmerize fans again at M’era Luna Festival (DE) later this year.

🎧🎶 Ships In The Night to Perform at Wave-Gotik-Treffen Festival! 🎧

Ethereal darkwave artist Ships In The Night is set to perform for the first time at the upcoming iconic Wave-Gotik-Treffen festival in Leipzig, Germany. This performance marks a major milestone for the project helmed by Alethea Leventhal, known for her haunting vocals, cinematic soundscapes, and emotionally charged live shows.

Wave-Gotik-Treffen, held annually in Leipzig since 1992, draws over 20,000 attendees and transforms the city into a celebration of Gothic culture, music, fashion, and art. Ships In The Night is scheduled to perform among a vast selection of acts spanning darkwave, post-punk, and industrial genres that include Drab Majesty, Public Image Limited, New Model Army, and Selofan, to name a few.

Ships In The Night’s latest album, “Protection Spells,” was recently released by Metropolis Records, earning critical praise with a sound that echoes the melancholy of ’80s darkwave while also forging new emotional ground. “It’s an incredible honor to be part of a festival that has meant so much to the dark music community for decades,” says Alethea. “I’m excited to bring Ships In The Night to Leipzig and share this experience with people from around the world.”

Ships In The Night will perform at Moritzbastei for the Wave-Gotik-Treffen festival in Leipzig on Friday, June 6th at 9 PM.

Twenty-five years into their reign, PSYCLON NINE have returned to the abyss with a vengeance. Their latest full-length offering, And Then Oblivion, out March 21, 2025 via Metropolis Records, is a genre-defying sonic invocation—a twisted ritual that fuses blackened industrial, deathcore, ambient, trap, and metal into something altogether untamed and unclean.

Helmed by longtime visionary Nero Bellum, the album shatters expectation with tracks like “CRWLNG FRM CNT T CSKT” and “I Choose Violence,” merging visceral textures with apocalyptic production and spine-splintering vocals. Bellum explains,

“I specifically set out to break as many genre limitations as possible, while staying true to the concepts and imagery Psyclon Nine evokes.”

Critics across the globe are already losing their minds over it:

🩸 “Doesn’t just cross boundaries – it tears them down…”Sonic Seducer (DE)
🩸 “Black metal vocals matched with trap and glitch… blastbeats and atmospherics to die for.”Metal Digest (UK)
🩸 “Creepy and awesome… nursery rhymes forged in hell.”Jace Media (UK)
🩸 “Suspenseful, sinister, genre-bending.”Tempelores (NL)
