Hi all
Lots going on in the background at the moment so just to keep you all in the frame, here's the latest review of one of our compilation appearances. Just had this through at Pavonis Central and thought we'd share.

and a translation in English:
Compilation: Till Dawn Do us part 08On November 28th this newest release by Dead By Dawn was presented. This time it is a compilation that still presents Belgian groups, but also looks into foreign talent. It is a good thing that lots of Belgian prominent organisations still care for this kind of initiatives, wich shows in the (financial) support this project received by many of the Belgian organisations, including Dark Entries. However, we at Dark Entries do not let our judgement be influenced by this.
Let us start with the absolute high point, and that's not only the price ( only € 8) but also the irresistable 'Juggernaut' by the English goth-rockers Cauda Pavonis. This band is a must to get to know. The wave-pop of the Dutch Bernard Fate is also very nice and Star Industry with the classic 'nineties' is a school example of Belgian goth-rock. Rising star Psy'Aviah is on this compilation again, be it with one of their lesser tracks 'Mine (CRB remix)'. What concerns the more known bands, there is Heyaeb, alive and kicking again (after a four year break) and for those that follow the Belgian scene names like Gestalt, Hedera Helix or Swan Death should not be unheard of. Their submissions may not be the newest tracks they released, but prove there is hope for this kind of music in our country. Besides, 'Amoroso' by Gestalt remains to be a very nice track.Names like Chrysalide (France), Hynnner vs hant1s3 (France), The Goth Factory (Netherlands), Fenix (Chile !), Orlock (Belgium), 26 Tears (Belgium) and XMH (Netherlands) are still a bit obscure and unknown here, in my opinion some keep it so on purpose. Others, stubborn and with a distinctive style like Ayin Aleph (the new Queen?) or the slick yet fascinating dark pop by Hynner vs Hant1s3 and Fenix (wich, by the hybrid style and sound, is a band that could or should be on the Alfa Matrix label).
In other words: there is something for everyone on this Till Dawn Do Us Part. With this in mind, and all good intentions and the very attractive pricing (recommended selling price: only € 8) this is a product no one should be ashamed of (and believe us, here at Dark Entries we sometimes receive albums that are). Order this compilation via Myspace, or on Bimfest (20 December) where Dark Entries will have some copies to sell. Support your scene: join us at Bimfest and make sure you buy this compilation !
