VADER

Polish death metal legends Vader have returned with their 16th studio album, Solitude in Madness. Never one to rest or relax, Vader have done it all over the course of their 37-year history. From plying super-aggressive thrash under the watchful eye of Communist Poland and signing a worldwide deal with popular UK indie Earache Records to touring the globe—after the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact in 1991, of course—and enjoying a near-maniacal fanbase, there’s no stopping the Piotr “Peter” Wiwczarek-led outfit. Proof of that lies in the exceptionally great Solitude in Madness, where speed and power are back as the driving factors in Vader’s fiendish yet proficient death metal. Further evidence can be found in the differences that separate previous pounder The Empire from Solitude in Madness.
With the band dynamic stable—Marek “Spider” Pająk (guitars), Tomasz “Hal” Halicki (bass), and James Stewart (drums) have been in Vader for almost a decade—the songwriting sessions were similar to Tibi et Igni (2014), The Empire (2016), and the tour-only Dark Age (2017). They were easy and smooth. Although things weren’t always like this in the Vader camp, the current lineup has afforded Wiwczarek a platform on which to focus Vader’s most important trait: the music.
Vader will kick off Solitude in Madness with a summer 2020 tour through Europe. There are also some events planned around the group’s various anniversaries—De Profundis turns 25, The Beast turns 16, and Necropolis turns 11—which will result in anniversary-branded tours. Nuclear Blast has plans to re-issue De Profundis, and there are further designs to press specific compact disc-only albums to vinyl. Expect to see Vader nearly everywhere—from Europe and North America and Asia—and indeed believe fans will be eating up Solitude in Madness en masse.

KLANGPHONICS

Opium Live • Fri 25 April 2025 • 7:00pm
After meeting in 2017 whilst studying music in southern Germany, Maxl, Ben and Markus are slowly redefining what live electronic music sounds and looks like. Initially a live band, Klangphonics are now becoming an act where the traditional boundaries of band, DJ and producer no longer apply.
In 2021 they released their debut E.P. „Songs to Try“ which was superbly received and has since garnered millions of streams on Spotify, all through their own self promotion. Fiercely independent from the start, Klangphonics have had a very DIY approach to everything, including social media, where they have racked up millions of followers across all major platforms through creative viral marketing. „We didn’t just want to sit around waiting for things to happen or for that magic break“ says Markus. Sold out European tours in 2022 and 2023 were also largely organized independently by the group, without a promoter, booking agency or label involved.
2024 is now set to be an exciting new chapter, with the release of their debut album „Perfect Opposure“ planned for the Autumn. The lead single „In Between (Memories and Dreams)“ gives a first impression of a sound, which with its unique blend of modern electronic elements marrying traditional songwriting sensibilities, simply refuses to be labeled and put in a box. It paves the way for new tonality in the music, combining a more delicate pop-inspired production whilst retaining the techno and house influences that make them such a captivating live act.
With a major European and first North American headline tour planned for early 2025 and a new carefully curated AV show lined up, you can probably expect to hear (and see) a lot more from this group in the coming months.
