Depeche Mode - Stockholm 2010
Concert Reviews
Saturday, 06 February 2010
Globen, Stockholm, Sweden.
31st January 2010
Depeche Mode & Nitzer Ebb

Swedish winter can be a bit overwhelming but it was quite some time since we got this much snow and this cold weather with temperatures -15 to -20 degrees. In this case I believe the temperature landed around -15 and then there is a limit of how long you can manage to stand and wait outside of a venue no matter what band is playing.

Peter Heppner & Band - Duisburg 2010
Concert Reviews

Pulp, Duisburg, Germany
4th February 2010
Peter Heppner & Band, Melotron

Finally, no snow on the streets anymore! Still the possibilities to get to Duisburg were limited to trains if you weren’t in the lucky position of having someone to drive you, or even drive yourself. So I arrived quite early at the venue and a big part of the remaining time was spend with waiting, luckily not alone for the entire time. Our waiting was worth the while, that’s what I can say at this point already.

Interview with

Jaymie Valentine of Cindergarden

For anyone who’s a fan of dark Electronica the name CINDERGARDEN should be indelibly imprinted on your brain. If it's not, it's likely to be because you haven't yet heard the groundbreaking machinations of one Jaymie Valentine, the brains and brawn behind the whole concept, who, as well as turning out some of the most startlingly original and innovative music also turns out to be a very interesting lady. On the eve of the release of her latest album ' Grim Confections' I had the pleasure of interviewing her and it went like this...

Concert Reviews
Wednesday, 03 February 2010
Matrix, Bochum, Germany
1st February 2010
Hypocrisy, Survivors Zero, Failed Perfection

A new album regularly also means that a tour is going to follow where the album’s being extensively supported. Now that time has come for the newest HYPOCRISY record ‘A Taste of Extreme Divinity’ and the band promised their fans a more than proper piece of Death Metal, a matured programme reflecting their development.
