Through the Facebook page, personal contacts, and the venues, we've put together about 100 bands, who will appear on a set of albums, on Limited Edition Coloured Vinyl The list of bands is almost complete and includes some well known touring acts, as well as others who may be less known but are regulars on the live circuit. The albums have the Venue regulars, a handful of Headline acts, previously unreleased new/live/old material and the odd one or two that are regulars at one of the other venues, which will introduce them to a wider audience, and hopefully play at the other venues, upon reopening.
The initial list of venues consists of regular punk rock haunts around Europe, and its hoped that the profits raised from each release will help with cashflow for reopening and bankrolling shows as we exit this pandemic.
B52: LOCKED IN THE DRESSING ROOM
is the FIFTH of the releases in support of this initiative with all profits going to the B52, Aartrijkestraat 92, 8480 Ichtegem, Belgium
YOUR LIFE ON HOLD - DEAD TREE: from Belgian gothic rock band could be about getting older and looking back and in the end letting go let mr. death do his job as you know you can’t change a thing about it.
ANDI SEX GANG - ACHILLES IN THE EUROZONE is a well known artist and was a legend in the 80’s. The song is short and catchy. It’s some sort of electro gothic. I’m pretty sure it stands a chance on the dancefloor and will also please a lot of old school fans!
DER KLINKE - THE DOLL is one of the most underestimated bands from Belgium with their biggest hit so far! Old school gothic rock like only the best people can reproduce it! Dance and sing all along until the very end! Enjoy this pearl!
JACQUY BITCH – BLACK also known from Nova and a survivor of the 80’s. Saw him many times on stage and I also know he doesn’t live that far from the Belgian border. Gothic rock and very old school!
STAR INDUSTRY – NINETIES the anthem from the 90’s and coming from a Belgian gothic rock formation that by now played all over the world (but yet a lot of national radio stations and TV stations from Belgium have to discover). The song is catchy as hell and produced in the best studio of our country! This is simply how gothic rock should sound like!
STRUGGLER - BIG VICTORY is another survivor from the 80’s and is still crafting and delivering new songs! This one is guitar minded and filled with heavy vocals. This is history from Belgium!
1919 - WAITING FOR GOD is a typical punk/goth rock track from the UK with a very British accent!
RED ZEBRA - FALLING APART: a living legend from Belgium’s Punk/wave band! It’s not their classic track (and that is a good thing), but it’s what describes the whole gig scene the best and thus is very fitting for this compilation!
THE BREATH OF LIFE - KULNA HORA is yet another underestimated Gothic Rock band from Belgium with one of our best female voices ever behind the microphone! The song is not their biggest hit, but it’s cool to hear another track instead! But sadly is not their most powerful track (but hey can’t get it all).
THE MARS MODEL– LIFEWIRE: is a gothic rock formation (formed in 2019) from Belgium and gets here an important spot and a good way to make fame!. The song is pretty cool (a bit cold), but has enough power and potency in it to convince me to be positive about them!
NO MORE – TURNAROUND: doesn’t need an introduction and delivers a really cool and catchy track! It’s incredible to have them on this compilation!
MORGAN KING – ALIEN: sounds like nice electro. When I checked his bio it was mostly about techno and indie.
People who buy the album will also get an extra track from Siglo XX (as it's not included in the bandcamp link)!
Well it’s one of the best compilations so far and it’s for a good cause! BUY IT! It’s worth it!
