After the release of our first BIMFEST name last month, the Swedish Minimal/Wave/Electro revelation AGENT SIDE GRINDER, BodyBeats Production is proud to announce our second BIMFEST artist: COVENANT( SE)!

Covenants 9th studio album, 'The Blinding Dark', was released in November 2016 and showed a remarkable development in style, something that Covenant definitely wanted to do with this album - and not least because of the subject that they dealt with on this album. With this release, this Swedish / German outfit has probably released their artistically most ambitious album so far. As many music lovers and critics agreed, this album was perhaps also their most obscure and moody album since their first two albums Dreams Of A Cryotank (1994) and Sequencer (1996).

It was therefore a logical consequence that we at BodyBeats, and after their successful The Blinding Dark Tour’ passage in 2017, asked Covenant if they could be up to to the idea of presenting these first albums vintage gems to our BIMFEST audience. Being great admirers and supporters of BIMFEST, frontman Eskil Simonsson and his companions immediately agreed and started working. Of course, besides these lovely vintage songs, they will also play some of their most famous clubsongs to please their fans!

Stin Scatzor was formed and started as a one-man-project by Stefan Bens. In 1990 he started out with only one keyboard, creating his own industrial/experimental music. Although Stefan’s first ‘live’ experiences happened with Lescure 13 (A project with Johan Van Roy aka Suicide Commando). In 1998 they released their debut cd ‘Industronic’

Trough the years the sound of Stin Scatzor evolved to a much more mature sound and in 2001 Kris Peeters (Guitars and producing) joined the band. The addition of distorted guitar sounds, on their new releases as well as on stage, give Stin Scatzor a very unique and aggressive industrial sound. Their latest industrial attack is called ‘Industranquilizer’.

Releasedate 17 February 2018
