das mystische, urspruenglich 1979 veroeffentlichte synthpunk kultalbum von c.o.m.a. erscheint nun erstmalig auf cd mit 4 unveroeffentlichten bonus-tracks. bevor er mit charles de goal ein franzoesischer popstar wurde, war patrick blain teil von c.o.m.a., die nur ein einziges album veroeffentlichten. das von sammlern gesuchte album mit aehnlichkeiten zum sound von metal urbain enthaelt eine schraege mischung aus punk-gitarren, proto-industrial synthesizern, mundharmonika und elektronischem schlagzeug. inspiriert von bands wie devo, wire, xtc, kraftwerk, the residents und magazine, sind c.o.m.a. soetwas wie the screamers diesseitig des atlantiks.

kollektion 2 is also a perfect opportunity to plug the first installments gaping holes.

chris reeds wurzeln gehen weit zurueck. als plastician veroeffentlichte er eine der aller ersten dubstep releases ueberhaupt, eine rephlex compilation mit dem titel >grime<

ein wohlfuehl-klassiker fŸr die einen, ein strenges formexperiment fuer die anderen, verortet sich die serie seit jeher im spannungsfeld zwischen hoergewohnheit und akustischer neugier, interessiert sich weniger fŸr saisonal bedingte stil-verwehungen und vor allem fuer den raum zwischen den taktschlaegen, fuer das, was von der bassdrum uebrigblieb!

mit death s prozession erscheint das vierte album der kalifornischen stoner-metal band saviours. nach crucifire (2006), into abaddon (2008) und accelerate living (2009) lassen es die saviours scheinbar etwas ruhiger angehen. strotzen die drei ersten alben nur so vor anleihen aus dem black,- doom,- und death-metal-bereich, besinnt man sich nun wieder auf seine wurzeln und laesst verstaerkt den stoner und doom-einfluss in den vordergrund treten. oder wie schlagzeuger scott batiste erklaert: -der haupteinfluss auf dem neuen album war, dahin zurueckzukehren, wo wir herkommen: black sabbath, iron maiden, motoerhead, thin lizzyÉ- trotzdem ist der sound immer noch unverkennbar der der saviours, roh, laut und scheppernd.

dub trio is back with their fourth and most powerful album to date Ð iv Ð an overwhelming blend of sounds, styles and ideas that come out swinging, and hit harder than ever. can metal coexist with dubs bass heavy riddims? dub trios newest album proves that not only can such incongruities coexist, but that in the right hands they flourish! with iv the band succeeds dramatically at emphasizing the theories, emotions, sounds, and concepts of their current musical exploration. iv finds the members playing multiple instruments, tweaking, turning & torturing knobs, cutting and chopping the audio itself, and shaping the compositions to create their own unique interpretation of dub as an art form.

byetone s new record symeta opens with a combined track - a transit - since topas and telegramm could be seen as one single piece. both tracks convey the atmosphere of a live session rather than the character of a studio production. the tracks are quite long and deal with repetition, layers of sounds, density and energy, more than melodic and engineering finesse. the whole album follows this approach, as it was fashioned within the context of live performances during the last two years. neuschnee Ð the third track Ð has an obviously reduced tempo, creating a wide landscape of sound with an intimate aura, which works as a counter draft to the other tracks of the record. with opal, the tempo speeds up again, a polyrhythmic phrase whirls around a straight beat, filters are turned, all that evokes the impression of early-90s minimal techno. byetone is basically interested in remembering, in a way to preserve, in citing rock/pop styles, without getting stuck in the past, whereas non of the tracks really fit into a specific genre. seen from this perspective, helix opens the final, more rocky block of the album. here, the tracks are offensive and rude and sound like a band in a rehearsal room. this part peaks with black peace in a high speed heavy metal session. finally, golden elegy closes symeta and a band-like situation occurs. the track ends with a wired lament, presented by jan kummer in the tenor of chemnitz, hometown of both artists. in former gdr-times, they started their musical activity with the brilliant-dilettantish ag geige, together with frank bretschneider (komet). symeta , the title of the album, appears mysterious. this synthetic word arouses associations with symmetry, synthesis or (meta-)structures. it doesn t stand for a definite object, there isn t any solution, and that is the reason why the title has been chosen. byetone s music tries to create such associations without really fulfilling these expectations. in this sense, symeta consequently follows death of a typographer (r-n92), the well received predecessor.
