EBM
stalwarts XP8 have launched a crowd-funding campaign to realise the
release of their forthcoming album 'Adrenochrome'. The project
started on the 8th
of May and within just eighteen hours, the band's goal of $1,500 had been
realised by their rabid fanbase.
The
band released a short thank you via the project page before going on to outline where they aimed to go from this point:
“Here at the XP8 HQs in London we are nothing short than humbled: you all made this possible in less than 24 hours. Thank you!”
Due
to the nature of crowdfunding, the project will continue for the full
term. However the band have offered stretch goals for continued
support. For example: if the total reaches $3,000 they will release a
7’’ vinyl for one of the upcoming singles. If they reach $8,000
they will make a brand new music video.
'Andrenochrome'
is
scheduled to be released digitally on June 1st
and
will be available on CD, in a deluxe digipack edition, in July. All
dates are worldwide.
