The weekly compendium 07/02/2014

There's been plenty of news this week, and while some of it is very good, I have to focus on the headline that Swedish record label Cold Meat Industry has ceased to be. Another gothic/industrial label has bitten the dust leaving a strong back catalogue of memories. So from everyone at Intravenous Magazine, R.I.P. Cold Meat Industry.

But it wasn't all doom and gloom this week as we had good news from Alt-Fest, Beat:Cancer, George Sarah, Ira-K Organisation, Tom Shear and Cease2xist to make up for it. We also had a nice little article from Dokka featuring some surprising débuts by a number of bands. We also had reviews of the latest releases from Jensen, Coil / Nine Inch Nails, ∆AIMON and The Death Notes.

Over on Facebook we've seen new music videos from Tregenza and Faderhead. An interesting look at tattooing courtesy of the BBC. The news Psyclon Nine are headlining Dark-Cide-Fest. And a new crowd-sourcing campaign from Unwoman... to name but a few things!

Right, that's it for another week. I'm going to leave you with a little something to alleviate the weekend boredom, and I'll see you on Monday.
