RITUAL HOWLS confirmed for BODIES & BEATS VII @ Fetish Café - Antwerp - 10.02.2023
Bodybeats Productions, Fetisgh Café & Swamp Booking proudly present the February tour Ritual Howls who are gearing up for their latest release via Felte Records
Ritual Howls Detroit’s Ritual Howls blend elements of post-punk, industrial, soundtrack, and musique concrète into stark yet enveloping music. Featuring Paul Bancell (vocals, guitar), Chris Samuels (synth, samples, drum machine), and Ben Saginaw (bass), the trio issued its 2012 self-titled debut album on Urinal Cake Records and a series of cassettes on Nostilevo in 2012 and 2013. After signing to Felte Records, the band’s second album, Turkish Leather, arrived in September 2014. Two years later, Ritual Howls returned with Into the Water, which emphasized their country influences as well as their pitch-black moods. 2017 saw the release of Their Body, a five-song EP of atmospheric post-punk and dark wave-inspired songs. The Detroit trio’s fourth full-length Rendered Armor was released in 2019 follows the Their Body EP with expansive arrangements sculpted with masterful production. The band are reissuing their ten year old self-titled debut album on Felte this year with plans for a fifth album in mid-2023

[permalink]The Juggernauts release new EP FEAR!
Finally! The wait is over! Belgian contemporary, uncompromising and hard hitting electro band The Juggernauts strike hard again! Six years after their renowned debut album “The Juggernauts Are Coming” the helmeted rejuvenators of the classic Electronic Body Music sound unleash their brand new six track EP FEAR! Six great unreleased tracks driven by pounding drum machines, rumbling low frequencies, rousing sequencers, Industrial noises and bittersweet synth melodies accompany head and voice BORG while he shouts all the anger, cynicism and social criticism out of his system. Six tracks of which four brand new songs and two breathtaking remixes of the title track. Make no mistake, the Fear C-19 EBM remix by BORG and pumping Fear Club remix by True Zebra can truly be considered as genuine standalone songs!
Most songs on these EP were tried, tested, fine-tuned and approved by their fans thoroughly during the band's recent live concerts and now these songs are finally available to enjoy at will!
Just like their previous releases these tracks blast from the speakers like an unstoppable destructive force, hence the band's name... While The Juggernauts still share the spirit of bands like Front 242, Nitzer Ebb or even Portion Control, they still manage quite well to steer away from the retro-trap and copycat syndrome, providing the epitome of underground dance music with a refreshingly harsh and modern approach.
It's clear The Juggernauts are determined to continuing the renaissance of Electronic Body Music!

BIMFEST LINE-UP UPDATE - RADICAL G. to replace Sierra on Saturday 03.12
We are very sorry to announce SIERRA will not be able to perform on our 20th edition of BIMFEST (Saturday). BUT we are delighted to say RADICAL G. agreed fill this void with a banging electro live set!
Unfortunately, we also received a cancellation from our sympathetic Swedish friend Nuclear Sludge (Friday), this due to unforeseen work circumstances. For practical reasons, and at the request of many, we have moved the Friday program forward 30 minutes so FRONT 242 can start at 23h, instead of 23h30.
We apologize for these unforeseen inconveniences but we are looking forward to see you all this weekend @ BIMFEST XX @ De Casino - St-Niklaas - B THE JUGGERNAUTS (B) [permalink]

So we hope to see you all this Saturday 10.09 @ De Casino! Thanks for your support!
