Preview the first 2 tracks from the upcoming Schwarzblut album ‘Idisi’

The Belgian electro industrial label Alfa Matrix has announced the release later in April this year of the new album of one our most favourite darkwave bands, the dutch combo Schwarzblut. The band, known for their elegant mix of historical Germanic poetry with organic electronic music, will see their new album “Idisi” released in 2 physical formats and as a download.
Pre-orders are now available via Bandcamp and via the label’s own mailorder shop (and at the same time we really advise you to pick up some other albums as well). Below you can listen to 2 tracks already from what wiull be the band’s 4th album.
The 2CD version of the album holds an 8-track bonus disc offering 3 bonus remixes and a series of 5 exclusive ‘meditation’ soundtracks made of environmental recordings, audio experiments and vocal intensity. We have already received a promo download of the “Idisi” album and Without any doubt, this is an album that will be a contender for the best darkwave album of this year!
Highly recommended release, especially for the fans of Laibach and related acts!
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
