Blood Death Ivoryangelspit - blood death ivory
Ships June 2008

Angelspit's new album
'BLOOD DEATH IVORY'
is now available for pre-order.

With their highly acclaimed debut album Krankhaus and their impressive visceral live performances, Angelspit have cemented themselves as being one of the most innovative new industrial bands. With their merciless dual vocal assault, intense electronic mayhem and murderous guitars, Destroyx and Zoog have thrilled and revolted countless audiences globally. Angelspit’s subversive visuals are equally confronting - as their unique brand of vicious fashion and hellish aesthetics influence a new wave of cyber punk music, fashion and art.

Hot off the success of their debut album Krankhaus, Angelspit have returned with a new barrage of ballistic electro punk in their new 11 track album Blood Death Ivory. The album will continue to blow fans away and disgust the status quo, as Angelspit experiment with sonic brutality combined with infectious and chemically sweetened melodies. Their tortured synthesizers, crushing bass and stomping beats get into your head and up to no good. Angelspit’s fierce yet seductive vocals distort beauty with chaos, doing violence to conservativism, apathy and a society fixated with consumerism. With the massive sounding Blood Death Ivory, it’s clear that Angelspit won’t be silenced.



THE TENTH STAGE - Grand GuignolTHE TENTH STAGE - GRAND GUIGNOL
Ships June 2008

The Tenth Stage's new album
'GRAND GUIGNOL' is now available
for pre-order.

click image to go to online store>>

Following on from their eponymous debut album The Tenth Stage , the band have crafted a new monster creation in the form of their brand new second album Grand Guignol. After a year of touring and refining their unique visual performances,the band have emerged from the studio with a truly unique album. This second installment in the series of Murder, Lust and Depravity now crash lands in the middle of the 19th century, going even further backin time than their debut album. A new assortment of aural pleasures awaits within, with a newer orchestral sound being explored, while still maintaining the clinical precision that only Analog and Digital Synthesiers can deliver. Roberto and John have filled the album with a parade of guest musicians, in order to bring life to their distorted and twisted visions.

Take a stroll down memory lane with The Tenth Stage and visit the killing fields of Tyburn Hill in Olde-England (Requiem For Molly) or visit a vampire occupied 'German Grey Shirts' drinking bar (El Dorado). Occasionally the time machine jumps into the 21st Century and pays a visit to disgusting beasts such as Ed Gein (Sex Is Bad Eddie), but before long you are transported back in time to the good olde days of swift justice and public hangings.
Grand Guignol is not for the faint hearted, but those of a more refined disposition will still appreciate the multi layered vocals and delicate instrumentation of the finely crafted songs contained within.

REMIX MANIA!!! ::


We are trying to convince ourselves that we are NOT stuck in the 80's.

Meanwhile, here are some remixes from TYCHO BRAHE and THE TENTH STAGE

1) The Human League - Rebound (Tycho Brahe Remix)
This is featured on the bands website

2) The Human League - Open Your Heart (The Tenth Stage's Digoxin Remix)
This mix was commisioned as part of the 30th Anniversary of the Dare album for the Black Hit Of Space website

3) The Human League - I Need Your Loving (The Tenth Stage Remix)
This remix is the launching point for a new "Fan Mix Of The Month" section on the Black Hit Of Space website. It's also quite possibly the worst written Human League song. Ever.
