Skotofobin release industrial / metal debut EP ‘Stadt’
(Photo by Daniel Appel) The Hanover (Germany) based industrial rock/metal act Skotofobin has just released its first EP “Stadt”. The meixture of industrial and metal is not a coïncidence as both members also play in the black-metal band Schwarzach.
On this EP the duo deals with the less flamboyant sides of urban life: prostitution, drug abuse, homelessness. The bandname itself refers to the term ‘Scotophobin’ – a substance that (allegedly) generates fear of the dark.
