Iron Curtain - Desertion (Pylon 2007)

Iron Curtain was a minimal wave band from Santa Barbara, CA, who played regularly in the Los Angeles underground music scene. They were heavily influenced by The Cure, OMD, Joy Division, and Kraftwerk. The band released several records in small quantities even though they had a great fan base, and hence over the years these releases have gained mass cult appeal which has driven the prices of used copies up into the thousands. After several years of searching for Steve Fields (front man for the group), Pylon Records is pleased to bring the entire catalog into print for the first time on CD. Featured on the CD is the cult classic “The Condos”, the goth-club-friendly track “Tarantula Scream”, and the much-sought-after track “Legalize Heroin”, which has a stark resemblance to My Bloody Valentine.

Συνθετικοί - Προσωπεία - Εφιάλτες (Δανάη 2010)

I have a thing about 80's greek bands as you can sometimes see by yourself in my blog-junkyard. Especialy for the desent ones. The band SYNTHETIKI was created in 1985, in Piraeus (Greece), consisting of 3 members - Apostolis Loverdos (lyrics, music, guitar) Dionysis Avgerinos (lyrics, music, keyboards) Dimosthenis Tsanetoglou ( technician) Their LP "SYNTHETIKI" was recorded in 1990 and only 500 copies of this album were circulated at the time. In 1993 the band broke up. In 2010 they released their second album "PROSOPEIA - EFIALTES" which was another landmark in the greek scene that has been dried for more than 15 years in the dark wave, post punk and minimal synth releases.

Anyways i really like these guys so i will repost the link that they gave earlier to their fans for getting their latest album for free and i am looking forward to hear anything new from them and hopefully before another 17 years passing by. Cheers :)

CCCANDY - Lonesome Berlin (Avant Records 2010)

AVANT RECORDS: Lonesome Berlin is the long time coming first LP from this German guy solo project CCCANDY. After the debut 7'' on Eat! and the tape on Neue Stra?en, we now have a proper full-length featuring twelve dark minimal synth pop songs. This is the sounds of the old Europe during the Eighties, when the Berlin Wall was still real: cold and catchy at once, minimal yet groovy. Greyscale bedroom electronics. Fans of early synth stuff such as The Normal, R.L. Crutchfield's Dark Day, French cold wave bands (Charles de Goal,Trop Tard, Asylum Party) as well as of FactoryMen and Nice Face, take note!
