"After unintentionally neglecting UK and EU for years, we are coming back at full force to celebrate the band's 10 year anniversary with every singer combination the band has ever had.

Formed in 2005, the groundbreaking act recently celebrated its 10 year anniversary. The band has gone on to release six LP's with Rise Records, the last five of which charted on the Billboard Top 200.

Germany's Jamie-Lee set to release new album ahead of Eurovision 2016 participation.

15/4/2016

We all know how well K-Pop has done over the last decade or so, not to mention the obvious global viral success of 'Gangnam Style' by K-Pop artist Psy. But it's no mystery that Germany, who over the years have become slightly obsessed with the whole Visual Kei / Manga aesthetics through the likes of the now defunct band Cinema Bizarre and pop rockers Tokio Hotel, are to stop at nothing when it comes to sending what arguably could be said as one of the most intriguing Eurovision entry's by Germany.

Here's hoping the 18-year old won't buckle under the pressure of such a grandeur event, not that she should have any long-lasting worries having romped to the finale of “The Voice of Germany” last December

Dubbed the "Miss Manga", Jamie-Lee garnered her attention whilst being a part of “The Voice” team von Michi Beck & Smudo (Die Fantastischen Vier), this unique musician hasn't let her success control her and instead has remained focused on what she wants to achieve, namely visit Korea, live as a vegan and dedicate herself to her love of the Japanese “Decora Kei” style. Said style has in fact through her gone viral, with her outfits trending across social media and this infectious cultural clash between German nationality and Far Eastern pop music will make her a hot contender to win Eurovision 2016, if only for originality.

With Jamie Lee's new album "Berlin" set to drop on 29th April, can we expect this teenage pop princess to be as kawaii as her music? Let's hope so. Check out her Eurovision song entry below (Eurovision is on the 14th May, coming live from Stockholm after Sweden's Måns Zelmerlöw won it last year):-



'Ghost' is not your average cheesy lovey-dovey romance song, it in fact looks at the more emotional side to the feeling, one that Jamie Lee found easy to express as she explains:-

"I am an emotional being. I might sometimes appear a little loud or provocative, but I am also a very deep person. I need the ups and downs of life. Tough times are needed too, they make us enjoy the good times more.”

With all participants, it's 100% effort for the performance but for the result? Well this is 50% destiny and 50% luck, voters can propel artists into international stardom such as ABBA, disrupt the traditional pop entry history through Heavy Metallers Lordi, but ultimately choose an artist who has won over hearts from well over 40 countries thus making them an overnight success.

Speaking of luck, the Irish have the horse shoe and Jamie Lee has a pendant given to her by her role models and coaches of “The Voice of Germany”, Michi Beck and Smudo. This pendant will be worn by her on the night.

Of course she wants to win, who wouldn't? But you can be too optimistic, however Jamie Lee feels that being there is an achievement worth equal recognition as potentially winning it:-

“It is a huge honour to have been chosen to participate in the ESC and to represent Germany in Stockholm. Taking part in this contest is for me an amazing opportunity to bring people closer to my music. Music is my life; it was always my absolute dream to perform in front of a large audience. I so look forward to it!”


"Berlin"  TRACKLIST:


01 Ghost
02 Lions Heart
03 Mine
04 Berlin
05 Home
06 Wild One
07 The Hanging Tree
08 Visions
09 Remember the Rain

Atari Teenage Riot have finished recording their new album and are currently mastering it using the latest motion picture technology in Los Angeles to make it as loud and powerful as any major Hollywood blockbuster soundtrack.
 
In order to get everyone prepared for the new album the band have announced a quick fire tour of Europe to showcase the forthcoming new material and have released an exclusive snippet of a new album track to whet every one's appetite. The album track can be viewed here.

The European tour kicks off on the 24th October at Heaven in London and then takes in France, Portugal & Spain.

24.10.2013 GB-London, Heaven
25.10.2013 FR-Paris, Glazart

Tickets can be bought here: www.atari-teenage-riot.com



The new album is due for release in early 2014 and is the first to feature new member Rowdy Superstar who has the following to say about debuting tracks to his home town of London on the 24th October “Over the last two years I’ve played with Atari everywhere from Coachella in the Californian desert to Moscow during a Russian winter, through South America and all around South East Asia but this is a chance to show my home crowd how it’s done”. Atari Teenage Riot are more than a band playing music; they are the embodiment of crowd surging excitement, a social manifesto and a warning that government is there for its own good not yours. They have influenced everyone from the core underground to some of today’s top line acts while never losing their subversive legitimacy.   Atari Teenage Riot is as relevant today as they were when they started which was highlighted by Rolling Stone who included them in their top ten acts of Coachella festival.

A Traitor Like Judas set to release new album

German Hardcore mob A Traitor Like Judas have announced the release of their new album "Guerilla Heart" which is scheduled for a release date of 26th August through Redfield Records.
 
The band present a mighty, catchy record with their new full length release, which has its feet deeply rooted in the Hardcore scene. With real anthems like ‘What Counts’ or ‘One Way Ticket’, the album is an inspiringly positive call to arms, which urges the listener to change their situation for the better.
 
The new album is an appeal to humanity – to look independently at a situation or event, and to make choices that impact the world in a positive way: “We are no radical activists but we want to see change. We are one of the new generations who are actively able to make a contribution,” says bass-player Tillman Listek. He continues “being in direct contact with a completely new and younger generation has influenced the band in expressing a positive vision to today’s youth.”
 
Check out the video for the first new track ‘What Counts’ here
