New Music by INCIRRINA!
Our lovely Incirrina just released their brand new digital double single "Immersion"! Available now on all platforms!
Immersion : A Poem and two Songs
The Poem
We gasp for air
In liquid jails
We learn to breathe
When all else fails
Inspiring people
Turn breath to choice
For us to share
Our human voice
The Songs
Presence - A depiction of a moment
A sudden difference in the flow of time An event
The Other as an autonomous entity Revelation as beauty
Ecce Homo then means Regardless
No desire No following
A presence inspires a hovering moment of realization
It breaks down barriers Outside the comfort zone
May be dangerous May lead to nothing
But it’s our only chance
Alien Room - An allegory
Violence behind closed doors Living room Science fiction movie is on
Isolation Dark space As if elsewhere As if no one knew
Chorus parts: Traditional lament voices for a scream in void

NEW SINGLE & VIDEO - OUT NOW!
Our CRYING VESSEL have returned after a couple years of pouring their energy back into the studio, and they've come back with not just one, but two new albums that promise to captivate and enthrall.
"Sepulchers - The Servant" and "Sepulchers - The Maiden" each feature 10 unique tracks that come together to form a cohesive and immersive musical experience. One side "The Servant" showcases the synth driven elegant style of Crying Vessel, while "The Maiden" takes us to the deeper, heavier and darker styles they've gained following for in recent years. The perfect taste of both styles of the band's work all in two releases at the same time.

NEW RELEASE
July 19, 2024
New Releases by IAMNOONE & NOROMAKINA!
Our IAMNOONE just released the second single "third, fourth and fifth" off their new album coming in October this year. In their own words: "Once we started discussing our experiences, we noticed some pattern: it’s kind of easy to get to do something for one or two times, the following occurrences, though, tell some story. We realized the third time we did something usually was not a coincidence, the fourth time it meant we were really serious about it and the fifth usually meant we would be going on indefinitely. Out of this unsung aspect of life, we wrote a song, jotting its lyrics right after shooting a video at the seaside. We wish you want to follow us along the least known paths of life."
Available now on Bandcamp and also streaming everywhere!
Our NOROMAKINA also has a new album coming soon! "Insomnia" is set for release on August 30th. Crafted with the dancefloor in mind, "Insomnia" delivers pulsating beats, haunting melodies, and an irresistibly dark atmosphere. Each track is a testament to Noromakina's innovative approach to music, blending vintage synth sounds with modern production to create a unique and immersive experience.
The pre-order phase has just started - you can enjoy the new single "diewithyou" already on your favourite streaming platforms. Available in both CD and LP formats, "Insomnia" is a must-have for enthusiasts of dark electronic music. Secure your copy today and be among the first to experience the electrifying energy of Noromakina's latest masterpiece.
Preorder the full album now on Bandcamp or in our CT Webshop!

New Single & Video out now!
In NECRØ 's own words, "'Into Oblivion' approaches the idea of the majestic hope that we will peak and achieve something unique to be remembered and simultaneously being swallowed by the urge to be forgotten. As we wander past countless days of repetition we try to find comfort and obliterate the fact that the seasons will pass, our oasis of memories will dry and our souls will fade away into oblivion."

Based in Switzerland, Slade and Basil have been at the forefront of the goth and post-punk scene revival since 2011 with their project with a seamless fusion of past and present, paying homage to the aesthetic of the 80s and 90s while injecting a fresh, modern sensibility. As leading exponents in their genre, they've carved out a niche with their unique blend of darkwave, post-punk, gothic, and synth-pop influences, echoing the legacy of iconic acts of eras. Their passionate performances and authentic sound make them a captivating act for live shows, guaranteeing an experience that resonates with fans of the genre and beyond.

NEW RELEASE!
The long awaited new album "U R G E" by our KALTE NACHT is finally OUT NOW - a masterpiece featuring 8 new tracks that take you on a special journey! It comes in two beautiful Vinyl versions, on CD and in digital format. Also streaming everywhere! Enjoy!
KALTE NACHT about the album:
U R G E took almost 2 years to come to life. Through many hours in our home studios, exchanging thoughts and feelings and learning from each other.
In these 8 tracks, we summed up key internal moments of this deep, unavoidable journey, this dive within, expressing through our music language how they were actually felt to our TOUCH, HEARD with our ears, TASTED, SMELLED, and SEEN through our eyes.
It’s really a strong desire to co-exist, co-create, reunite, trust, and bring hope closer to us all.
It’s made of tiny bits of conscious actions each and every day, nurtured and encompassed by love.
It’s an effort to spit light into our shadowy corners of being and approach what it means to be a human with tenderness and honesty.
It’s our TRUTH.

🔥 New Release from Greece 🔥
New music by our wonderful Grey Gallows! The Guys have just released their new double single "ΣΑΝ ΤΗ ΝΥΧΤΑ (San ti nychta)" where they experimented more with the electronic sound, crafting angsty arpeggios and creating a dense atmosphere through their cold synth landscapes.
This time Grey Gallows chose the Greek language to express their thoughts and feelings about life and loss. SAN TI NYCHTA means "like the night", like the hidden emotions that emerge inside all of us in stressful situations, when those feelings seek to pour out from the very depths of our soul. The video for the single is directed by Nikos Chantzis (Press Eject and Give me the Tape).
The single also comes with the second song "Nothing to Believe" that features the awesome voice of fellow artist Cleopatra Kaido.

The debut album "I'm Too Young To Die" by our OLIVER DECROW is finally out now!
Get your version on CD (also a hand signed one), a solid orange Vinyl (shipping mid June) or in digital format. There is also a new T-Shirt available as well as various bundles. The album is also streaming everywhere for your listening pleasure. Grab it on Bandcamp or in our CT Webshop.

Get your copy on CD, classic black Vinyl or in digital format - all formats available for immediate shipping. You can also check it out on your favourite streaming platforms. Grab it on Bandcamp or in our CT Webshop.
The album delves into compelling themes and societal concerns through pulsating synths, rhythms, and introspective lyrics. "Evilution" scrutinizes the erosion of morality in mainstream culture, while "Common Sense" mourns the loss of moral bearings and rationality. "Eternal Death" confronts the manipulation of innocent individuals by deceptive elites. The album also explores topics such as consciousness after death in "Near Death Experience (NDE)" and "Don't Be a Stranger," which encourages listeners to reflect on the transient nature of life, exploring consciousness and the mysteries beyond mortality's veil, moral discernment in "Discern," conspiracy facts in "Illegal Truth," and the allure of wealth and fame in "Lukewarm Soul." "Too Cold" warns against succumbing to societal hypnosis. Overall, "Discerning Spirits" challenges societal norms and invites introspection into the complexities of existence.
