This Eternal Decay + Atomic Neon + Dark State
THIS ETERNAL DECAY
This Eternal Decay is the industrial dark wave project of Riccardo Sabetti (Spiral69), Pasquale Vico (Date at Midnight), Andrea Freda (Spiritual Front), and Alessio Schiavi (Avant-Garde). Since 2018, they have been combining romantic darkwave with industrial rhythms and synthpop.
The debut album is "I Choose an Eternity of This" (Trisol Music Group), an album that makes an immediate impact on both audiences and critics, leading the band to tour Germany, Austria, and Switzerland just two months after its release.
In 2020, they released their second album "Silence", a work featuring guests such as Then Comes Silence and Theatres Des Vampires. Unfortunately, the band was forced to cancel many performances across Europe due to the global pandemic, but the audience and press reactions have been incredibly positive, resulting in three (!) re-releases of the album within five months.
At the beginning of 2022, "NOCTURNÆ", the third studio album featuring guests from Hapax, Avant-Garde, and remixes by ACTORS, Ash Code, Wisborg, and A Copy for Collapse, is released. The album is received excellently by critics and audiences, with "NOCTURNÆ" being nominated as one of the best darkwave albums of 2022 in many charts – a European tour follows.
But the band does not remain idle... and in 2023, they will release the fourth studio album titled "ABSØLUTIØN", including remixes from Ductape and Zeromancer in advance.
They will bring their fifth album with them for their performance at Grend.
ATOMIC NEON
Atomic Neon has been touring the scene stages of Europe for 10 years now. Among hardcore fans of post-punk, wave, and goth-rock, the name Atomic Neon stands for captivating live gigs as well as the unmistakable “quirky” and melancholic vocal style of Rio Black.
The sometimes lamentingly sad and sometimes threateningly dark vocals are complemented fittingly and atmospheric by the diverse, guitar-oriented sound of the excellently staffed band. Bittersweet, reckless, pitch black, and filled with pain... that is the music of Atomic Neon!
DARK STATE
Singer Scott Mick from Eastpoint Michigan, USA (Orbital3go, ex-PanicOrPain) and keyboardist & producer Per-Anders Kurenbach (also ex-Psyche, The Eternal Afflict, Nine Circles) met in 2009 due to their shared interest in the band "Shock Therapy" and realized they had many musical similarities. After exchanging musical ideas and numerous successful concerts during a "Tribute-To-Shock-Therapy-Tour" in 2018, they decided to create DARK STATE. They see their music as a kind of "hybrid" of various genres (Hybrid-Electro). Scott's softly to rockily sounding raw voice merges in wonderful harmony with Per-Anders' melodic-hard music sounds.
