Emilie Autumn
March 4th, 2011
Mesa, AZ, U.S. @ The Nile Theater

Review by: Dawne Flanagan

Emilie Autumn. The artist is not so much a creature, as she is a phenomenon. Known for screechy angst and electric violins, the corseted songstress graced us with her presence on an otherwise unassuming Friday. As I approached the Nile, the venue for the show, I passed by a motorcycle rally which had taken over all of the downtown area. I turned and turned again to find myself in a cobbled alley which made me giggle with the vision of Charles Dickens’ England, if only a little. Lost, as there is no sign that I could see for the venue, I walked back and forth until J., our fearless leader, approached me. Together, we entered the theater. Instantly, I became enthused for the idea of seeing this amazing artist. Friends had seen her in New York not long before and had given us weird and cryptic updates via skype. “We’re just in awe right now,” they said. (more…)

Nitzer Ebb/Access Zero
February 12, 2011
Scottsdale, AZ, U.S. @ The Venue of Scottsdale

Review by:  Tiffany Angeney and Christina Cubel

The 2011 Valentines Fetish Ball in Phoenix Arizona was proud to welcome Nitzer Ebb and Access Zero to The Venue of Scottsdale on Saturday February 12. If you’ve ever been to a Horns & Halos Fetish event in Scottsdale then you must be aware that it isn’t your typical concert. The first thing you see when you walk into the venue is a whipping stage and each bar surrounded by vendors selling fetish stuff. Even though we dressed up, we were not there for the fetish event, we were there to see the iconic Nitzer Ebb.

Nachtmahr/ Uberbyte/ Kommand + Kontrol
February 4, 2011
Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England @ Corporation

Review by: Jack Knowles

The floor was lightest when the opening act Kommand + Kontrol took the stage—a  dark electro act with a modest, underground following. However, their followers were obviously not present in the crowd. Donning Italian gangster outfits, Kommand + Kontrol gave a rather timid performance compared to the other acts that night, as they seemed to realize the crowd weren’t that into them, but watched and applauded politely. The half hour performance seemed to drag, but was received well, and it was all worth it to see Uberbyte… (more…)

Triton Festival
September 3-5, 2010
Brooklyn, NY

Review by: Lorenzo Bettelli of Syrian

Editorial note: Lorenzo is Italian. He originally sent me an English version of this review but thought he could better express himself in his native tongue. Rather than attempt a half-asses translation with some free online software, I have decided to post it in the original Italian. Feel free to run it through a translator yourself if you like.

Questa è stata la prima volta che sono stato a New York City. Avevamo suonato negli USA già in un paio di occasioni nel passato, ma sempre in posti meno importanti e città più piccole. Così abbiamo colto l’occasione di visitare la città e siamo arrivati alcuni giorni prima.
