Liar's Rosebush "Circle The Squares" giveaway


We have 1 copy of Liar's Rosebush album "WWW", courtesy of Hive Records label.
To be elegible to win a copy of this release please answer the question "What is the title of Hive's 2005 split release featuring Liar's Rosebush and Scrape[dx]?"
Mail us the answer at info[at]connexionbizarre[dot]net with your full name and street address. The deadline for this giveaway is February 9, 2008 and winners will be selected from the correct entries at random on that day.
Not valid for current Connexion Bizarre staff members.

Individual Totem "WWW EP" giveaway


We had 4 copies of the limited-edition "WWW", the much-delayed EP release by electro-industrial legends Individual Totem to give away, courtesy of Artoffact Records label.
Delayed for years, this EP celebrates the return of Individual Totem after nearly 7 years of silence and heralded another release by this German duo on the Canadian label Artoffact, a full-length album titled "Mothfly", also released on Artoffact.
To be elegible to win a copy of this release we ask you to send us a list of all the full-length albums released by Individual Totem (extra points if you know on what label was supposed to release "WWW" back in 2001).
The winners were: S. Horner (us), S. Malik (us), R. Oliveira (pt) - who in addition to correctly listing Individual Totem's discography also knew that "WWW EP" was to be released by Inception Records in 2001 - and A. Machado (pt) selected at random from those that supplied a correct discography listing.

Moljebka Pvlse/Seventeen Migs Of Spring - 'Ravha/Electricity Gardens'

Moljebka Pvlse/Seventeen Migs Of Spring - Ravha/Electricity Gardens
Throughout our everyday existence there is a constant aural stream flowing in from our environment. While most people can easily discard these bits of disassociated memory, the artists behind Moljebka Pvlse and Seventeen Migs of Spring utilize these relics to form a lucid dream of disconnected familiarity.

Cyanhide - 'Dancefloor'

Cyanhide - Dancefloor
Anachronism aside, the album is well worth listening to, with a wide appeal that spans aging goths as well as fans of layered dark electro like early Velvet Acid Christ or In Strict Confidence.

Vas0k - 'Vas0k'

Vas0k - Vas0k
Vasøk claims influences from electronica and hip-hop to Russian protest songs and Norwegian black metal but don't think too hard about any but the first on that list. Ultimately, the impression of "Vasøk" becomes one of too much time spent on self-indulgence and not enough on coherent content.
