Get ready to be swept away by the electrifying sounds of German dark electro combo TO AVOID as they join forces with Belgian label Alfa Matrix for the release of their highly anticipated new studio album, “All Gods Are Gone”.
“1989” serves as the thrilling first glimpse into the sonic onslaught awaiting you, as TO AVOID delivers a devastating storm of hard-hitting EBM, intricate sample manipulations, aggressive synth lines, and oppressive atmospheres. But this track is more than just music; it’s a poignant reflection on the enduring legacy of the fall of the Berlin Wall 35 years later. TO AVOID fearlessly delves into the complexities of a society still grappling with the divisions between East and West, challenging the lofty ideals of German reunification.
But that’s not all – TO AVOID has enlisted a cadre of talented friends to remix this anthemic track, including luminaries like Erk Aircrag (HOCICO, RABIA SORDA), FEKTION FEKLER, NTRSN, PROLETURAN, SLUK MOTOREN, SYNAPTIC DEFEKT, and TÖT. Plus, dive into the vault with an unreleased demo version of the haunting “Aerial Warfare” from 2011.
Since their inception in 2000, Berlin-based TO AVOID has captivated audiences around the globe with their eye-catching stage presence and unique fusion of late 80s EBM industrial and 90s melodic dark electro. If you’re a fan of the intricate EBM of FRONT 242 (anno 1985), the tortured dark electro of early SKINNY PUPPY, the hard-hitting cold elektro of VOMITO NEGRO, or the poignant melodies of GRENDEL, then TO AVOID’s sound is sure to captivate you.
And for the die-hard fans and CD collectors out there, Alfa Matrix has secured a limited number of the exclusive CD edition of “1989,” available only at TO AVOID concerts. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of musical history – grab your copy now!
