The Klinik is closing Bodyfest 2011

Headlining and closing Bodyfest, was another classic band, The Klinik. They are also from Belgium and comes from the same era as A Split Second. But The Klinik leans more to the industrial sound and is very far from rock'n'roll.

I have always considered The Klinik as an interesting band and I love their more melodic songs. But there is also a more experimental and ambient side of The Klinik that I doesn't appreciate as much.

Thankfully the band is concentraiting on there more accessible songs and the show is excellent. Sadly my batteries is running low and I don't have the energy to join the dancing and havoc that is going on around me. I settle for standing in the back, with a huge smile on my face, just enjoying the music. And I am already looking forward to next years Bodyfest.

A Split Second - A dear reunion at Bodyfest

To be able to see A Split Second again in 2011 is a real treat for me at this years Bodyfest. The band was one of the first electronic band that I appreciated in the late 80's when my focus was mainly targeted at Hard Rock and Heavy Metal.

I learned about them from my younger brother who of course had chosen a music taste that was as much opposed to mine as possible. (How things have changed :D) But hearing records like A Split Seconds ...From the inside and Nitzer Ebbs That total age I just had to admit that there where some stuff from "the dark side" that was really interesting.

Ever since then I have been a huge fan of this cool Belgian band. They have succesfully combined dance rythms and electronics with rock attitude since the debut in 1986. I've seen them live once before on 1993, in Gothenburg, when they toured with the Vengeance C.O.D. album. It's almost 20 years ago, and it's 25 years after the debut. Can they possibly have something to offer an audience in 2011?

It only takes a couple of songs until I realise that A Split Second still is a really cool live act. It's not three youngsters that enters the stage, but what they may lack in youthful energy they make up for with lots and lots of stage presence and experience. They are really generous and play all their classic songs. It's also a really special feeling to hear Scandinavian bellydance live in Stockholm. A lot of happy feelings after this reunion with A Split Second.

Orange Sector is hitting hard at Bodyfest

I realise that it's almost a month since Bodyfest, and I am only half way through my report.

The two members from Orange Sector enters the main stage and unload a very energetic and hard hitting set of old school EBM. The event starts to live up to it's name Bodyfest and the crowd starts to dance, jump and shout.

Sadly I must admit that I am not as familiar with Orange Sector as I ought to be. They seem to have managed to fly beneath my radar all the way since 1993, when they released their first record. I like what I hear and see on stage and I will most definetly start to pay this band the attention they deserve from now on. They put the "fest" back in Bodyfest.

Parade Ground was a bloody mess at Bodyfest

I don't know what happened, but this was just weird. Jean-Marc Pauly enters the stage and hits his forehead hard on the microphone and starts bleeding. Then he pats his bloody head and shows his bloody palm repeatedly to the audience.

The sound is crap with a backtrack that is without both volume and base. The guitar is cranked to ten and drowning all other sounds. The vocals get's throug but are drowned in reverb and delay.

I don't know if there was to much drugs going on or if it was a desperate attempt to deal with a crappy sound. Sad, cause i was looking forward to hear some of Parade Grounds quite beautiful songs and was given a bloody mess instead.
