Post-punk outfit The Wake has announced they will release a new long-play, entitled “Perfumes and Fripperies”. A fixture in the early - to mid-90s goth rock scene, The Wake are re-emerging with a new offering, almost 25 years since their last full-length album.

Ahead of that, they present the lead track “Hammer Hall”, a lushly layered, powerful, dark soundscape laced with infectious hooks and driven by signature vocals. Listen to the new track below.

London’s TV Priest arrived seemingly fully formed at the start of the year with their widescreen debut single, “House of York”, immediately picking up international press attention and seeing support from BBC 6 Music, including multiple plays from Steve Lamacq. It was no fluke.

London and Cambridge’s Black Country, New Road spent the start of 2020 performing a number of sold-out and memorable live shows, including an incendiary headliner at The Village Underground, before beginning work on their as-yet-untitled and much-anticipated debut album.

Today they announce a series of further dates across Europe for 2021 including their biggest London play yet at The Electric Ballroom.

They will be playing the following dates.

European Tour Dates 2021:

Two months ago, industrial metal icons Powerman 5000 announced they were readying a new album for 2020, “The Noble Rot”, and now the band is ready to share the very first single from that album, the goth club-inspired “Black Lipstick”.

“Open Arms” is the debut album from Deeper Graves, the solo venture of Jeff Wilson (Chrome Waves, ex-Nachtmystium). The record has been confirmed for release in early July, and its lead single, “Open Arms”, is now streaming.
 

The 69 Eyes released their apocalyptically titled new album “West End” last fall and started their all year lasting 30th anniversary world tour.

Now they are celebrating their three decades by streaming a live show from Helsinki, Finland on Friday June 26th, 2020, at 20:00 (EET).

The Helsinki Vampires will rock around the world for their fans live on their screens and the ticket link works for four days after. More expensive ticket allows also for a virtual meet & greet with the band.
 

London-based C86 legends Wolfhounds have announced their new album “Electric Music”, set for release on July 3rd, 2020, via A Turntable Friend Records. Ahead of this, they present lead single “Can’t See the Light”, a powerful track that opens fire on side one of the forthcoming record with captivating video by David Janes. Listen to the new track below.

Following the rescheduling of the festival, sadly a couple of acts couldn’t make the new dates due to prior commitments one of whom is Nick Heyward, however, Rewind is delighted that Rewind Favourite Marc Almond is available and will join the all three festivals next year.

The Rewind Festivals have been postponed until 2021.

Read the official statement:
“We are saddened to announce that Rewind Scotland, Rewind North, and Rewind South will no longer take place in 2020. The health and safety of all Rewinders, the artists, staff and community will always be our top priority, and it became clear that rescheduling the festivals was unavoidable.
