I remember that one of my friends (Peter Dolphen) is a big fan and saw them on stage in 2014, he is the one responsible for my interest in them. For those who missed them: it’s an Italian EBM band and they recently reissued their cassette from 1983 (on vinyl, CD and in digital form).

English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    10 januari 2016

Since Ashley Dayour (also know from Whispers in The Shadow) started with this project its seems to grow after each EP and each CD. I see more and more positive vibes around this occult project. Evil, mystic, occult … these descriptions fit, so watch out!

English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    2 januari 2016

Over the years Amaranthe gathered a lot of B-Sides and added bonus tracks to certain regions, making it hard for some to get them and now they decided to release them all in one. Yes, finally the time has come to discover the rarities and prove to some that they have a lot of potential!

Ewert and The Two Dragons – Circles (Sire Records)

English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    1 januari 2016

Their previous record was released with the help of the I Love You Records and now they signed Sire Records A Warner Music Group Company! Isn’t that a gigantic step for an Estonian band? Do I have to remind you that Estonia has only a population of 1.3 million people?
