Closed Circuits

Conceived as a banishing ritual, the nine songs of Closed Circuits’ first album arrange themselves into three parts, representing Isis, Apophis and Osiris – roughly growth, destruction and rebirth. Upon this structure the songs coalesce into a coherent whole, designed for maximum affect when listened to from start to finish. Closed Circuits is a young man from an old island. He knows that Chaos never died, and that we can be free.

Agent Side Grinder

Sweden's rocking electro monster Agent Side Grinder burst onto the scene in 2008 with their eponymous debut album. The music was an uncompromising, never-heard blend of industrial, post-punk, old style EBM and electro topped with the apocalyptic crooning of singer Kristoffer Grip. British music fanzine 20JazzFunkGreats called them a "sensation of uncomfortable pleasure". On their second album "Irish Recording Tape", the band developed their musical style further.
