Asbest Inc + ARMOURS

ASBEST INC. - album release Expect heavy post-industrial EBM with traces of Front 242 and Depeche Mode. “We have no hopes of appearing on Allsång På Skansen.” (interview with Synth.nu, 17/8)

Tonight, Stockholm-based Asbest Inc celebrate the release of their long-awaited debut album Pandemonium, a study in human self-sabotage and a dark journey deep into the roots of popular music.

“…skittering electronics rush through the mix, while quietly disarming vocals hover over a rumbling bassline. The result is an elegant collision of electro-industrial soundscapes and futurepop melodies.” (Chris Brandon, Synthpop Fanatic, USA)

ARMOURS

Stockholm band ARMOURS were formed almost exactly a year ago by members Håkan Ängquist, Thomas Isberg and Bengt Rahm, and have since released two singles and the five-track EP Body. The gig at Reimersholme Hotel will be the band's live debut, and the stage will be filled with vintage synths and live-mixed projections. Their inspiration comes from the synthpop, post-punk and EBM scenes of the 1980s, from Nitzer Ebb to Bronski Beat via Manchester and Vancouver.

British music blog Analogue Trash described ARMOURS like this: “Body channels futurepop into a darker electronic vista, the beats akin to the relentless machinery of Nitzer Ebb and DAF, layering in unrelenting structures that borrow from modern post-punk acts like Lone Assembly and IST IST.”
