SONGS FROM THE BLOOD – NEW ALBUM & TOUR

May I present to you the initial details of the sixth Byronic Sex & Exile album and accompanying UK tour.

‘Songs From The Blood’ is a dramatic retelling of the Dracula legend, which becomes a tale of noble, uncompromising defiance and resurrection. It tells the tale of a Count who truly is “powerful, beautiful, and without regrets.”

The ‘Songs From The Blood’ tour will be an immersive exercise in gothic atmosphere, providing thrills and chills in equal measure. Part One of the tour takes place over the remainder of 2025, with Part Two taking place at special locations next year.

‘Songs From The Blood’ will be arriving on CD and digital download this autumn.

Stripped: Tangerinecat + Machiner
2025-10-17 19:30 - 23:00
Join us for a most unique night as tAngerinecAt touch down on the Dark Side of the Tyne…Dark anti-lullabies fusing folk, darkwave and deep, haunting, hypnotic soundscapes.

Originating in Ukraine and residing in North Wales, tAngerinecAt embodies a rich tapestry of musical influences that intertwine West and East. The duo conveys a strong anti-war, anti-fascist, and anti-ecocide message, where the hauntingly intimate allure of dark jazz a cappella coexist with the fierce energy of hammering industrial electronic beats and poignant spoken word. It reflects the profound mastery of Ukrainian-born Zhenia Purpurovsky, a classically trained multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, arranger, conductor, and actor, in partnership with the visionary sound designer and multi-instrumentalist Paul Chilton who hails from Britain. With a degree in folkloristics, Purpurovsky adeptly juggles rich cultural symbols, creating a tapestry of meaning.

tAngerinecAt graced an array of prestigious festivals, including Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Germany, Tallinn Music Week in Estonia, Menuo Joudaragis in Lithuania, Hradby Samoty in Slovakia, Ex Tenebris Lux in France, Focus Wales in the United Kingdom, Equinox in the UK, Eden in the UK, Willowman in the UK, Knockengorroch in the UK, among numerous others

Hard to believe we know but it is true, Kirk Brandon has now been leading SPEAR OF DESTINY for over 40 years.

SPEAR OF DESTINY were formed in 1983 after the demise of Kirk Brandon’s post punk iconic rockers THEATRE OF HATE. (Brandon had also, before TOH, been the main man in every punk rockers favourite band of that era, The Pack)

The current line up of Spear is the longest serving to date and features Adrian Portas (New Model Army / Sex Gang Children), Craig Adams (Sisters of Mercy / The Cult / The Mission) and Phil Martini (Jim Jones and the Righteous Mind) on drums. During 2019 the line up was boasted by Saxophonist Clive Osborne. Long time Brandon collaborator Steve Allen-Jones completes the band line up on keyboards..

Post Pandemic has seen SOD play some fabulous club shows and festivals including sell out shows at the iconic 100 Club in London, Manchester Ritz and Glasgow Oran Mor. SOD’s performances at Sign of the Times, Rebellion and Kubix festivals have heralded fantastic reviews “Festival Stealing Dream set” wrote The Northern Echo.

Late 2024 will see Spear take to the road with long term friend Richard Jobson who will fronting a revitalised line up of the much loved Post Punk Heroes THE SKIDS. This amazing line will be playing close to 30 shows across the UK in November and December 2024, NOT to be missed.

For SPEAR OF DESTINY 2025 will be the year of ‘Janus”. Janus The Recordings are the choicest cuts from the band’s two biggest selling albums, Outland & The Price You Pay. 24 tracks re-recorded and re-imagined, beautifully packaged and presented on Double Vinyl, Extended Double CD and Download. Janus The Tour will pull a set list from these fantatsic new recordings.

Comments on Kirk Brandon and Spear of Destiny:

The BBC’s Jeremy Vine says, “@kirkbrandon is one of our greatest musical geniuses”

John Robb’s Louder Than War “Spear of Destiny are criminally underrated and are one of Britain’s best, Boys Own, punch the air, grandiose Rock’nRoll bands.

Mojo wrote: “Kirk Brandon is on of the UK’s best kept secrets”.

On SOD’s previous studio album ‘31’(Thirty-One).

BBC Radio’s Jools Holland: “possibly [Spear of Destiny’s] best album in 20 years”

Louder Than War: “9/10 Brandon puts his all into every song with epic bombast, coming across as a tragic rock n roll anti-hero. He is the Wagner of rock n roll. And the haircut’s still pretty cool”

Aberdeen Voice: “Forty years together makes for flawless musicianship, a unique sound, and some remarkable riffs and harmonies”

Clan of Xymox is a Dutch band formed in 1981 in Nijmegen, Netherlands. The band originally started under the name Xymox and was founded by Ronny Moorings. Their music is often classified as ( founders of ) darkwave, gothic rock, and synth-pop, and they are known for their moody, atmospheric sound and introspective lyrics.

In 1983, the band released their self-titled debut album “Subsequent Pleasures” and gained attention in the emerging gothic music scene. The album featured a dark, ethereal sound that would become their signature style. The band’s name was changed to Clan of Xymox after signing with the U.K. independent label 4AD.

In 1985 Clan of Xymox released their first album, “Clan of Xymox ” which included the hit song “A Day.” The album helped establish the band’s reputation within the gothic / dark wave music scene and gained them a dedicated following.

Over the years, Clan of Xymox has experienced various lineup changes, with Ronny Moorings being the only constant member. The band has continued to release albums and tour regularly, maintaining a strong fan base around the world.

Clan of Xymox’s music often explores themes of love, loss, and introspection, and they are known for their melancholic and atmospheric soundscapes. Their influence can be heard in the work of many contemporary darkwave and gothic bands.

Throughout their long career, Clan of Xymox has remained active and continues to be an important and influential presence in the gothic/ dark wave music genre

Following on from the success of ‘Maximum Sorrow!’, the band played their biggest shows to date, supporting Suede on their sell out Autofiction tour. 5th album ‘No Hero’ arrived in late 2024 and contained their most ambitious and accessible material to date, from the bass groove led single ‘Unsympathetic Parts 1 & 2’, to the big choruses of ‘7’.

Cinematic layers of synth, ethereal vocals sung in their native tongue, spine chilling screams, driving bass and programmed drums combine to pull the listener deep into Kælan Mikla’s world a place of folklore and fairytales, magic and mysticism

Growing up around the capital region of Iceland, the members of brooding post-punk trio Kælan Mikla were raised with warnings of elves in the wilderness waiting to kidnap them, and mermaids swimming within the seas that encircled the island.

The band have enchanted fans all over the world, including The Cure’s Robert Smith who has asked Kælan Mikla to play several of the festivals he has personally curated.

“Mirroring the frozen, sacred landscapes of their home in Iceland, Kaelan Mikla are simultaneously bewitching and brutal”

Metal Hammer

“Their incredibly well-executed post-punk witchcraft is as beautiful as it is mysterious, nodding to everything from Depeche Mode to the Cure (Robert Smith is a fan).”

Revolver Mag

“Their rawness and charisma are enough to convert the staunchest non-believer in their direction.”

FACTmag

“The three witches from Macbeth [with] Poly Styrene punk and Diamanda Galas shrieks.”

Goth King Resurrection brings you the next chapter in the Black Celebration story, a night of fire and ice…

From the 8th hour in the great hall at Sidney & Matilda, DJ Dionysus & DJ Vega Bukowski unveil an incendiary fusion of Gothic Rock, Dark Wave, and Post-Punk, quenched through the shimmering echoes of Neofolk and Neomedieval, and tempered by the glacial sounds of Cold Wave, and the grinding rhythms of Industrial and Goth Metal. As the 11th hour strikes, we will descend into the underground chamber where darker, pulsating beats and eerie, thunderous vibes penetrate the haze and half-light. Amidst dancing, ceremony, and revelry, we shall go deeper and longer into the darkest hours until the end of the night. Gather with us to celebrate dark sounds for dark souls…

8 – 11pm // DJ pre-club set in the Bar // free entry.

11pm – 4am // Club night in the Basement // £7 cash.

Join us this November at three shows across the UK to support NFD’s first new album in over 10 years. The first 150 ticket holders at each show will get a free copy of a limited-edition Digipak CD!

After last year’s Monstrous return show in London, NFD are back with a new album and more shows to support its release. Front man and band leader Peter ‘Bob’ White says:

“This new album has been a long time coming and has been in production for over two years between Holy Rocks Studios in Deepest Darkest Derbyshire and a studio on the edge of the Majove Desert in California. This release brings together songs I have written over nearly the entire history of the band’s existence, kept to one side, waiting for their right time for them to shine – and that time is now. These songs have been brought to life by our amazing recording line up of Chris Milden, Luca Mazzucconi, Lars Kappeler, Rebbeca Galfalvi and of course myself doing my usual duties. It also leans heavily on the talents of HRS owner Ol Kenny recording this Gothic Monstrosity and Co-producing it with me. Our new album is set for release in October 2025 and we will be playing many new tracks as well as some old classics in our up and comings sets. Both myself and partner at NFD Towers, Ed Shorrock, are putting together some very cool merch for this release.”

NFD 2025 SHOWS – SPECIAL LIMITED EDITION CELEBRATION CD

To celebrate NFD’s return to the stage and the release of the new album the first 150 ticket holders from each show will each receive a limited-edition Digipak. The contents of this CD are under wraps for now but will include some exclusive content featuring artwork by Bob. It is sure to be a collector’s item any NFD fan will want to get their hands on.

The first 150 tickets holders from each show can pick up their Digipak upon entry to the shows by purchasing the early bird ticket option while stocks last!

COLD IN BERLIN Album Launch Party!

Plus Special Guests:

NAUT

MOTH SLUT

COLD IN BERLIN Launch their new album: As heavy as it is haunting, the record masterfully blends doom, post-punk, and driving krautrock in a dynamic, hypnotic maelstrom – pushing the band into intoxicating new territory.

First single Hangman’s Daughter leads the charge. Opening with a hypnotic techno bassline, the song quickly gives way to post-punk guitars, huge choruses, and vocalist Maya’s magnetic storytelling.

Synths on the album are arranged by Berlin-based Bow Church, an influential figure in the dark electronic scene and a longtime collaborator of the band. His work weaves icy and atmospheric textures into the songs, layering complexity that demands repeat listens. The synth led track They Reign captures the band nestled comfortably between Kate Bush and Neu!

While meticulously crafted, Wounds captures the visceral energy of Cold in Berlin’s renowned live shows. The album’s arrangements and raucous sound remain true to the unrelenting intensity and atmosphere of their stage performances – every track retains the sweat, urgency, and immediacy of a band performing in the moment.

Featuring free-jazz brass sections on the audacious punk rock track 12 Crosses, off-beat structures in the blackened I Will Wait, and the poetic closer Wicked Wounds, and soaring synths on the electro doom of The Stranger, Wounds is the band’s most ambitious release yet.

Ashbury Heights
2026-02-04 19:00 - 23:00 | The Fulford Arms, York, 121 Fulford Road, York, YO10 4EX, United Kingdom
ASHBURY HEIGHTS BIOGRAPHY:

Ashbury Heights are a synthpop duo from Sweden consisting of the dynamic singer/producer/songwriter team of Anders Hagström and Tea F. Thimé.

Originally, the duo consisted of Anders Hagström and Yasmine Uhlin. However, she announced her surprise departure from the band in Hamburg at the last concert of the Out Of line festival tour 2008.

Anders and Yazmine met in November 2005 and, upon discovering that they shared the same musical vision, decided to form a band. Their collaboration soon came to fruition with the release of a 9 track demo entitled “Angora Overdrive” after a very intensive month in the studio.

The second four track demo, “Parliament of Rooks”, which was finished in February 2006, had a more refined sound compared to their first offering. They decided to send it to a few select labels because the reaction they got to the first demo was quite overwhelming. Having sent the demos on Monday, Ashbury Heights was contacted and contracted by German Out of Line records on Wednesday, only an hour after the label had received the CD. This probably makes Ashbury Heights one of the fastest signings in history. Several other labels expressed an interest in the band, but there was no bidding war as Out of Line moved so quickly.

Although having signed the famous German act “And One” at about the same time as Ashbury Heights, which ate a lot of the labels’ resources, Out of Line wasted no time. The legendary producer John Fryer was brought on board to produce the promotional single “Cry Havoc” in April 2006, something quite unheard of in the world of the electronic underground. Very few bands in the synth-genre get to release promo-CDs (if any), and certainly no other band in modern synth-history has released a promo-CD produced by a celebrity of the likes of Fryer.

John Fryer would eventually mix their first album “Three cheers for the newlydeads”. Released in october 2007, the debut album was recieved with overwhelming optimism from press and audience alike proving once and for all that Ashbury Heights truly is a force to be reckoned with.

In 2008 Ashbury Heights returned with the “Morningstar in a Black Car” EP, containing five new songs and four remixes. The EP received good reviews and helped keep up interest for the band. A video was made for the track “Spiders”, a low budget affair which nevertheless managed to project some of the bands unique flair.

Ashbury Heights, with brand-new female vocalist Kari Berg, released their new album ‘Take Cair paramour’ on the 2nd of july 2010. In 2010, following a long running dispute between Hagström and the record label Out Of Line the band disbanded. This dispute was settled in 2011, whereupon Hagstöm and Out of Line renewed their collaboration. However, it took until 2013 for Hagström to find a new singer. The new singer is Tea F. Thimé, the first female to co-write lyrics for Ashbury Heights. The band are excited to announce their first ever UK Tour which coincides with their 20th Anniversary, so this eagerly awaited UK tour is set to be very special indeed!

In 2008 Ashbury Heights returned with the “Morningstar in a Black Car” EP, containing five new songs and four remixes. The EP received good reviews and helped keep up interest for the band. A video was made for the track “Spiders”, a low budget affair which nevertheless managed to project some of the bands unique flair.

Ashbury Heights, with brand-new female vocalist Kari Berg, released their new album ‘Take Cair paramour’ on the 2nd of july 2010. In 2010, following a long running dispute between Hagström and the record label Out Of Line the band disbanded. This dispute was settled in 2011, whereupon Hagstöm and Out of Line renewed their collaboration. However, it took until 2013 for Hagström to find a new singer. The new singer is Tea F. Thimé, the first female to co-write lyrics for Ashbury Heights. The band are excited to announce their first ever UK Tour which coincides with their 20th Anniversary, so this eagerly awaited UK tour is set to be very special indeed!
