Grave Concerns E-zine News Headlines April 23rd, 2008
The synthetic dream foundation has a new album coming out on April 30th 2008, entitled "Behind the gates of horn and ivory". After two years of focusing on side projects such as Abandoned toys and Ephemeral mists, Brett Branning has come full swing again to focus on his TSDF project. The new album is a natural extension of the last album, but surpasses it in quality in every regard. Deeper production skills, punchier mixes, and more cutting edge sound design make this the TSDF album you have been waiting for. It is a full on fusion of EBM, psytrance, dark ambient, and IDM and will leave your heart pounding.
Red Flag announces new album title here on Grave Concerns E-zine first. We are the first e-zine, magazine to break the album title. Please download Chris's message to hear the new title. Stay tuned for even more news on Red Flag and for an exclusive article go to www.graveconcernsezine.com .

Grave Concerns E-zine Review Samples
ARTIST: Parade Ground
ALBUM: Rosary
LABEL: Sleep Walking Records
REVIEWER: Matthew J.
DATE: 11-8-07
Parade Ground- Rosary
Contemporaries of Front 242, Belgian duo Parade Ground's career has been markedly less prolific, releasing a handful of 12-inches filled out by numerous compilation and guest appearances. Coming almost two decades after their first full-length album, Rosary captures the spirit of early EBM and combines it with the more experimental textures of groups like SPK and Test Department. Although such tracks as "Windfall" and "Fight Time" employ classic EBM beats, the club rhythms are more often than not obscured by thick layers of distortion, industrial motor sounds, and muffling studio effects. Each "album" track is also separated by snippets of noise (much in the manner of the "Suture" tracks from Chemlab's first album, the noise segments are entitled "Rosary I-XV"), which range from looped clanks to distorted samples of classical music, adding to the album's avant-garde feel. Processed symphonic elements occasionally emerge to contrast with the more mechanical sounds, as on the funeral march of "Stutter" and the old-fashioned strings intro and outro on "Three Faint Fires." Produced by long-time friend and collaborator Patrick Codenys of Front 242, this album is intriguing in that it seems to actively resist club play while still employing many of the basic formulas of dance music. It's an interesting experiment, a sort of anti-dance album that still manages to be EBM in that it's still electronic, after all, and its marching rhythms and blasts of buzzing distortion are intense enough to evoke physical sensations. While it's probably too subtle and cerebral to be the next big dance hit, true EBM enthusiasts ought to enjoy Parade Ground's subversive take on the genre, and diehard Front 242 fans will be intrigued to hear something completely different from the pair who composed the vocals on the legendary Up Evil album.Visit www.parade-ground.net for more information.
Meet The Editor Meet the Editor of Grave Concerns E-zine
Hello,
My name is Julie Johnson and I am the editor and music manager of Grave Concerns E-zine. I am 31 years old from the the Albany,New York area.
I started Grave Concerns E-zine in 1999 to connect to the Gothic & Industrial world by promoting some of my favorite artists. I wanted to give back and be part of the scene in a creative way and Grave Concerns was it. Over the last nine years I have networked with many artists and labels to bring you the latest CD reviews, interviews, news and much more.
When I am not busy with Grave Concerns, I am a full time middle school Spanish teacher since 2000. Working with middle schoolers can be very interesting. I have a Master Degree in Curriculum Development & Instructional Technology.
Some of my other interests are: Hanging out with Friends, Getting Tattoos, Computers, Digital Photography, Playing the Wii, Traveling, especially cruising the Caribbean, and Mexico. I also like to go to San Diego, California, Miami and Las Vegas.
