/Welcome to the Future/210/Events, Livestreams and new releases 29-Apr 2022

Posted on By adam

Hopefully back to weekly postings from now on, and probably a good thing, judging by the enormous number of releases being covered this week.

The post, then, is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website and others and also catchup of what I’ve posted recently. Thanks to everyone who sends me new music and events, keeps me up to speed, and indeed simply reads these posts.

/Releases out today or recently

/Album of the Week
/29-Apr 2022 / SCALPING / Void /Bandcamp
Bristol industrial-rock-techno crew SCALPING have been building a buzz through some formidable singles and a reputedly scorching (and deafeningly loud) live show – and they release their debut album today, which builds on previous work to create a sound quite unlike anyone else. They play a headline show at fabric (gulp) next week, that I’ll be at.

/22-Mar 2022 / Sakis Tolis / Among The Fires of Hell /Bandcamp
Sakis Tolis turns away a little from Rotting Christ for a solo album that takes some unexpected turns.

The latest aural weaponry from Greyhound.
/22-Apr 2022 / I Speak Machine / War /Bandcamp
A number of people I know have been absolutely raving about this album, and initial listens suggest the hype is correct. Fascinating electro-industrial-trip-hop is probably about as good a description I can give right now…
/22-Apr 2022 / In The Nursery / Humberstone /Bandcamp
Sheffield’s legendary industrialists continue their explorations.
/22-Apr 2022 / Kathryn Joseph / for you who are the wronged /Bandcamp
Even more introspective than her last album, but no less fascinating and elegant.
/22-Apr 2022 / LAST DAYS OF S.E.X. / Overstimulation /Bandcamp
Like Greyhound, more brutal noise from HANDS.
/22-Apr 2022 / Spiritualized / Everything Was Beautiful /Bandcamp
Being lauded as the best Spiritualized album in a couple of decades (yes, since that one) is some accolade – I’ve held off listening to it until I buy it this weekend…

Synapscape continue their quest to sound like no-one else on ant-zen and elsewhere.
/22-Apr 2022 / Undeath / It’s Time…To Rise From The Grave /Bandcamp
Quite simply the best death metal I’ve heard this year.

A sprawling re-issue and remaster of the 2005 IRIS album.
/29-Apr 2022 / Rammstein / Zeit /Official Artist Store
After a decade between albums last time, lockdown has given us the next after just three. It’s Rammstein, what else do I need to say?

More from the ever-wonderful Röyksopp at last.
/29-Apr 2022 / Tenebra / Moongazer /Cargo Records

Swedish Black Metal villains Watain are back with an album as dramatic as the title.
/30-Apr 2022 / Crystal Geometry / I Stare Into Darkness /Bandcamp
Industrial techno that leans into using guitars? Hmm…

/Upcoming/Livestreams/Gigs/Club Nights/Events

Obviously, things change at short notice right now, and I’m updating events as they are postponed or cancelled, and also including relevant Livestreams as they are announced.

/amodelofcontrol.com continues to maintain an events calendar, but it has now moved to /amodelofcontrol.com/events – and is now a dynamic, searchable database, and you can add individual events to your own calendars. I’m currently fixing a couple of minor backend issues, so new events may not be added promptly, or be added sporadically.

If you have updates, relevant events for me, or want to tell me about something else, use the contact details above. It goes without saying that any gig or club still in the listing is subject to change at short notice, or may not happen at all.
