Svarte Greiner Using a mixture of electronic synthesis, field-recordings and acoustic instruments, Svarte Greiner plays what has been at times described as “acoustic doom”: calm but menacing pieces of dark atmospheres and somber beats which move and flee through a mist of encompassing drones and samples. Shackleton Tapping unusual sounds, atypical of the dubstep genre,…
Mars Red Sky stoke the fire of a voodoo mass with their 70’s old school riffs and their psychedelic groove. Julien Pras, well known for the pop magnificence of his studio session with Calc, was secretly dreaming of Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin and was also sharing these musical fantasies with drummer Benoit Busser…
DJ Set Le Garage Souterrain, Lou Beat and bettibobikepunk (Garage, Beat, Psychedelic, 60ies) Recommended By: Dan Haak 
Psych-punk garage-rockers Thee Oh Sees have gone down a heavier, more horror laden path with their new one, Floating Coffin, released in April. Everything from the morose stalk of Minotaur to the grindy bass lines A and stabbing-small-animals guitar clangs of Lupine Dominus. It’s a soundtrack. An ode, to all your favourite 60’s freakout horror…
A terrific lineup of dark-wave post-apocalyptic rock headlined by The Soft Moon supported by Merchandise and locals DiACurt.

But if you were going to talk about what their sound was really all about, their first album Bleach is where…
With the brand new album Afraid of Heights out the door last March and summer being in the air and everything just generally going well within their sphere of influence, it’s only fair the breakout act Wavves make it here to Berlin for an ace gig in the equally ace Cassiopeia. Thanks to our wonderful friends…

Jimmy Eat World’s follow-up album Futures (2004) featured another Modern…
Leonard Cohen’s not dead, but somehow these guys have stolen his soul and put it to their own purpose. Mysterious and full of lost-highway meanderings, Californian act Dead Western are the Sisters of Mercy of the alt-country set. Devastatingly desolate, but at the same time passing by moments that are quite lovely, band leader and…
