After a three-years break Electro Cult Band XPQ-21 are back with "Alive", an album full of self- confidence and self-belief ! From the infernal programming of pumping dancefloor beats, the club-hit power of driving EBM / Electro tracks and the booming energy of pounding bass-lines "Alive" sees a welcome return from one of the Electro scenes guiding lights. A must for fans of FRONT 242, LEAETHERSTRIP, PRODIGY or HOCICO, XPQ-21 deliver an irresistable concotion of Electro, Punk, Industrial and EBM ( particulaly evident on songs such as "Dead Body" ) culminating in an aggressive inferno. XPQ-21 also deliver versatility, tempering the onslaught of driving club anthems with quiter melodic moments of minimal electro and melancholy soundscapes, delivering a well rounded and essential release for all fans of the Electro genre...
there is new artist named "Cowboy Troy". He does this Country-HipHop crossover that he calls 'hick-hop' (lol!)
At any rate, he has the one song that I think is awesome. Not only does it have a great melody, but the message is important too. (a ballad, by the way)
he has the video on his site. Take a look at it. The song is "If you don't wanna love me"
Refuting the rumour of a possible break-up ( following "Farewell" and "The Best Of" releases ) Goth / Darkwave legends Clan Of Xymox are back with "Breaking Point" : possibly their most perfectly blended album yet. Featuring searing guitar lines, strong bass sounds mixed with atmospheric and powerful synths and Ronny Mooring's deep, sensuous and harmonic voice it delivers all of Xymox's trademark sounds and references offered in their iconic and unique style. This 'classic' sound is no more evident than on album opener and first single "Weak In My Knees" - a club hit par excellence : mighty tunes, powerful chorus line, a perfect sing-a-long melody which catches the listener in an instant. The following track "Calling You Out" shows them from their darker, even more aggressive side with straight guitar lines and no compromises, while "She's Dangerous" is yet another dancefloor hit - complete with infectious synth lines, driving rhythms and a permenant hook. "Eternally", "We Never Learn" and "Cynara" are songs that will capture the hearts of their older fans immediately - quiet, almost introspective, slow, thoughtful and eternal. "Be My Friend" presents another powerful club hit while album closers "Pandora's Box" - forms an interlude into the aggressive song "Under The Wire" ( a track that demonstrates perfectly the rockier side of Clan Of Xymox ) and finally "What's Going On" a melodic masterpiece that demands replaying.
Kipling: I believe it...I can't leave one of those places without dropping at least $50-$100 just going in to grap some picks or strings or something...and end up with all kinds of thing I never knew I always wanted!
Thanks for telling me about the amp- and thanks for the links Nirvana.
And you can remember all those songs...like riding a bike- once you get going, you won't be able to stop
