Those of you who were at the WGT show in Leipzig last year might have noticed a lot of video cameras on stage… the first results of that video shoot have just been posted…
From the forthcoming live album “A Thousand Points of Light”. Recorded live at WGT Leipzig 2007. Directed by Keith Langley. Produced by Rodney Orpheus. Mixed at CXHQ Manchester, Feb 2008.
You can also see it on our MySpace page and on our FaceBook page.
We’ll have more info about the live album soon!
Sadly we’re not able to play Wave Gothic Treff this year, but by way of compensation we’re doing some gigs anyway! We’re doing three in Germany, and maybe one in the UK. Here’s the list:
More details shortly, but mark these on your calendar now!
We’ve just set up a new Facebook page for The Cassandra Complex. If you use Facebook, please go over there and become a fan!
There’s a very detailed listing of CX releases at discogs.com, so if anyone wants to check out all the things we’ve done, we definitely suggest you check that out. Also note that you can rate what you think of the records there, so please give us some good ratings if you can…
Rodney has just been putting up some listings for other records he has produced, so check out his page there too. You might be surprised at some of the stuff he’s done!
We just added a new page of album reviews to the site – there are a couple of Wetware reviews up there now. If you know of any other reviews we can reprint, do let us know!
I’ve just uploaded a little video Paul shot on stage at Sao Paulo. It’s us doing One Millionth Happy Customer during the encore – first time we’d played it in a very long time. Well, we rehearsed it earlier that day in the soundcheck, but we’d never even rehearsed it until that day…
Nice review of the Machina festival at Projeto D.Monia. Roughly translated it says:
Finally the long-awaited band Cassandra Complex entered the stage, producing a strong show in a perfect mixture between rock and electronics with a lot of guitars and synth sounds. The performance of singer Rodney Orpheus was memorable as he celebrated with the fans, dancing, playing on the floor, singing a crossover between post-punk and EBM with songs like “Moscow, Idaho”, “War against sleep”, “One Millionth Happy Customer,” “(In Search of) Penny Century,” “Second Shot”, “VALIS” among others. A show that mixed extreme professionalism, charisma and fun. Machinery and emotion to the umpteenth power. A memorable moment for all those who have listened to the tracks in years past … It would be unfair to define a band like Cassandra Complex by way of other artists but imagine Bauhaus meets Krautrock alive and kicking. Excellent, a memorable show.
Volker has put up some pics from Sao Paulo on his MySpace page.
