Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Helium Vola - Selig #118
March 21, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.56 MBAs mentioned in the video, the German Word "Selig" can mean a lot of things, depending on the context but it best translates to: "blissful" or "blessed". Helium Vola is billed as "Medieval electronic music" quite a paradox, but if you listen to it, you surely get it. The composer is the other half of the Darkwave duo @Deine Lakaien , which are quite well known in Germany / Europe. This song is clearly not for everyone, nevertheless I highly recommend it, as it is a nice dreamy soun...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Laibach - Opus Dei (Life is Life) - Leben ist Leben Industrial #257
March 20, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.63 MBWell, @Laibach is just unapologetic fun for me. Militaristic, a bit of inspiration for @RammsteinOfficiaI , an artist collective which easily transgresses between militaristic march music, industrial, pop music and movie soundtracks / soundscapes. They are just great, artistic wise. Music wise not many songs I like, but this cover I can wholeheartedly recommend! BUT ... oh no, be warned there is a bare chested female in the video, so if you cannot bear to look at that (as the intern...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - ГРАЙ - В объятиях Мары - Russian Folk Metal in all its Glory #255
March 19, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.28 MBAs you surely know by now, I have a soft spot for Russian Folk Metal, see my Recommendations for @Alkonost & Teren. The Band Grai also fits in there nicely. Heavenly female voices, folk instruments and heavy guitars ... I just love this combination! So please give it a spin here: https://youtu.be/yicTUvDVTHA https://open.spotify.com/track/6wbpF5dQpINX9I0VeRQTmz?si=07caa440204f4a3c and of course, here it is in my playlist: https://playlist.shellshockedradio.com/link/griyk...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The Smashing Pumpkins - Disarm #117
March 18, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.18 MBWell, today a "classic", clearly showing how old I am. This song came out as I was young and I loved it back then and still love it today. I do not think that I was too much in my formative phase to give you some untainted advice here, but of course, I might ... ;) But then again, as these are my recommendations, they are all and always a bit tainted. This is a great song: https://youtu.be/d1acEVmnVhI https://open.spotify.com/track/7A8caPxvrT8ZgLvQPPUCcj?si=2fbbc14b617743c6 ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Disturbed - The Sound Of Silence - Simon & Garfunkel Cover #254
March 17, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.77 MBI really like the Cover of @Disturbed 's rendition of the @SimonGarfunkelVEVO classic "The Sound of Silence". The Singer of Disturbed, David Draiman, chooses his Rock Voice wisely in here and slowly builds up to the Crescendo of the song. I guess at their / his status he has nothing more to prove and everyone knows that he can sing with a strong rock voice. So is very nicely held back for the most part, benefiting the song greatly. "Hand auf's Herz" ... I have to admit I was never ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - CONTRACULT collective - WDYT #116
March 16, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.53 MBHell Yeah! This is my kind of stuff! After the last few recommendations being a bit "off topic", in the sense that they do not really fit into my (usual) more Gothic Rock, Darkwave and Industrial Metal centered channel and Spotify playlist, this one fits like a HAMMER on the head. Aggressive, punchy, heavy guitar sounds, this is a love child of Ministry, @Nine Inch Nails , @officialkmfdm and @Marilyn Manson , so, after all the Pop Songs of my previous videos, finally a "heavy hi...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - CAMOUFLAGE - Love is a shield - 80's Pop Music made in Germany #253
March 15, 2022 05:00 - 1 minute - 1.59 MBYeah, @Camouflage2004 again, after I already recommended their great "Great Commandment" song, now the second one in my list of recommendations. As with "Great Commandment", this is just a very well done 80's Synth Pop Song. I'm of course absolutely (To)biased ;) as I grew up with this great song and was in my formative years as I heard it. But still I believe it is a great tune and if you never have heard, please check it out: https://youtu.be/z33QeUUnrks https://open.spotify....
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - MONOTRONIC - Kids of Summer #115
March 14, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.06 MBHey Guys, today another more unusual song for my usual Gothic Rock, Darkwave and Industrial Metal recommendations. @Monotronic Band made a great "Ohrwurm" (earworm ...) song here, which gets stuck in your head, in a positive way. It is a strange mix of a positive vibe, and still some sad undertones, at least, this is what I hear here. I really like the song, hence my recommendation ;) but it is not my usual oeuvre. But you should "expect the unexpected" by now from me. It is a gre...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - October Changes - Medusa -Melodic Metal & Angelic female voices #251
March 13, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.62 MB @October Changes are once again one of these rare finds of Diamonds in the rough ... criminally underrated they do their own style of Melodic Metal, Symphonic Metal and Electronicore. And they do that GREAT. I love this song, angelic female voice, great music, dreamy & sad lyrics. What else is there to ask for? https://youtu.be/vl_zXBkiwoY https://open.spotify.com/track/3yQ7wAd4vbKnVXbpQAYGHS?si=71d6f867a19d44ac and of course, here it is in my playlist: https://playlist.shellshockedra...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Wumpscut - Wreath of Barbs Unheilig Remix featuring der Graf #250
March 12, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.68 MBThis is the joy of being a radio DJ for two different Radio Stations & Shows. On Radio Dark Tunnel ( https://radio-dark-tunnel.net/ ) I have the "Shellshocked Radio - Discovery" Show where I play mostly new & emerging (underground) artists along the genres of Darkwave, Gothic Rock, Industrial Metal and Neue Deutsche Härte. On my other Show on https://ndhradio.online/ aptly titled "Neuer Deutscher Hörfunk" I mostly play Industrial and NDH music. Usually I collect the music I play in my...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - aha - take on me #114
March 11, 2022 05:00 - 4 minutes - 4.62 MBHere I have to admit I'm swooning all over it and have nothing substantial to add to this masterpiece. I just LOVE this song, one of the best pop songs ever made. I will love it until I die, sorry for this very unprofessional babbling without much content. Here is clearly just a fan boy rambling on. Here the very gorgeous original video: https://youtu.be/djV11Xbc914 and here the metal cover from my friend @matteson83 https://youtu.be/NaM58OnKx24 I apologize for this very ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Weird Wolves - Overdrive - Mix of Electronic & Rock + Eye Candy #249
March 10, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.57 MBA very Eye Pleasing Band today! @Weird Wolves look good from a female and male perspective, yummy oh yeah! :) Their music is self described as "a Hybrid of Electronic & Rock Music, refined with Postpunk influences". I could have not said it better ;) They apparently started as an acoustic duo and moved later to the more electronic site. I think you still can hear the acoustic past as Raf, the bass player really slaps and pops nicely in this track. Also interestingly, they both ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - H.i.M. - Join me in Death #113
March 09, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.68 MBWhat a song ... H.i.M. does not re-invent the wheel here, but what they do they do really well. They make simple songs sound epic, and I don't mean "simple" as disrespectful. Simple is good, complicated is for "show offs" ... ;) if you know what you can do, you do not have to put a 5 minute solo in each song you play, real masters know when it is appropriate to shine and then it is better to step back and let the song "breathe" and not smothering it with too much ballast ... This is...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Stoneman - Liebe Liebe -NDH from Switzerland as seen on Wacken #248
March 08, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.01 MBIf you want some alternatives to @Rammstein Official or @EISBRECHER official Stoneman is your cup of tea. Hailing from the wholesome Switzerland they deliver their own brand of NDH - Neue Deutsche Härte. I'm usually no fan of growling vocals, but here, in the song "Liebe Liebe", they explore this technique in the verses with good effect. So, when it is done in a good fashion, even I can get behind this "singing" technique. Check out the song here: https://youtu.be/3CA5ZhcA3Os...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - The Municipality - End as you begin #112
March 07, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.5 MBHey Guys, today one of the little gems (at least in my ears) I'm always happy to find and to unearth and bring to you. You remember how cool it has been when you found a song none of your friends have heard before? And you were the one who brought it to their attention? Because YOU were on the "pulse of the time" as we say in German :) Great feeling, isn't it? Well, I present you a song I found under the avalanche of bad music I receive every day. Here the link to the channel of...
STOP the War in the Ukraine! Shout out to ZXSPunk & Teren, Stay strong! And do not hate the Russian
March 06, 2022 11:08 - 7 minutes - 7.21 MBSorry, this is just an off the cuff video ... just me rambling and crying. I feel helpless, useless ... pathetic. I have nothing to offer to help here. Please follow and share the music of @ZXSPunk Production and @Teren Band if you like it. This is the only support I can think of right now. No sane person wants war for any reason ... Here you can find them on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0ToqFpXDRZwkx03e4Ooqu9?si=SKq1d8zmSbWFPYQ2Zi0Llw https://open.spotify.com/artis...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Sara - Se osa joka rikkoo - this is Finish ... bot not the end #247
March 06, 2022 05:00 - 1 minute - 1.58 MBYeah, finally I could do my little "Finish" joke :) ... but @Sara is not a joke band for sure. It is serious Alternative Rock, a bit dark tainted, but you know, this is what I like anyway ... and the Singer! The Singer has a great voice and transports his / the songs emotions very well. So I recommend you check out this little gem here: https://youtu.be/5L91pa2XaP0 https://open.spotify.com/track/0RTqqfKjapmqJWMQomQdds?si=38947bab5f174818 Here it is in my playlist: https://pla...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Tears For Fears - Woman In Chains - 80's Pop as it's finest #246
March 05, 2022 05:00 - 1 minute - 1.66 MBWell, lets not beat around the bush, I'm swooning all over this song. This is a piece of art, period. So I'm absolutely biased recommending this 80's Synth Pop Masterpiece, but hey, I recommend you that I love, and this is one of these songs I love ... maybe I was young and in my formative years as this came out, but honestly, this holds still up today, the craftsmanship, the message, the power ... I love it! https://youtu.be/O5-c79LQ3aM https://open.spotify.com/track/5jmwL2MniQj9l...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Apoptygma Berzerk - Cambodia (Kim Wilde Cover) #111
March 04, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 1.98 MBHey Guys, this is clearly one of these times, when you think that you loved the original, but if you revisit it ... you get reminded that it did not age that well after all. So it is with the Song "Cambodia" in the original from @Kim Wilde , not a bad pop song for its time, but the cover version from @ApoptygmaBerzerkBand adds much more (needed ...) punch and drive to the song, so despite me wanting to re-visit the original with you for this recommendation, I can only wholeheartedly ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Nuclear Winter - Ghost Killer Industrial Metal Video Game Track #244
March 03, 2022 05:00 - 1 minute - 1.25 MBAs I do not know anything about the people behind this Gaming Music Industrial Metal Track, I will keep it short. It's great! Listen to it here: https://youtu.be/vBAKUTF2jEk https://open.spotify.com/track/223r0ITc4En7eKUr1rgeLJ?si=667d44caf01b45d1 and, of course, here it is in my playlist: https://playlist.shellshockedradio.com/link/griyke If you rather want to listen to my Talks as a Podcast, you can find it on Spotify, iTunes, Google & in other places here: https://an...

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Hail - A Stain in Time #110
March 02, 2022 05:00 - 54 seconds - 858 KBHey Guys, this one is short and to the point as I was unable to find much about the artist https://www.instagram.com/hailofficialuk/ besides that she is from the UK. The song "A Stain in Time" is just a very well sung and performed rock ballad, worthy of your "checking it out": https://youtu.be/zPtcyc9c9f4 https://open.spotify.com/track/1CkpxMoo6pCgVXOyeZnw0C?si=3b7b5ef12b644d1b Here it is in my playlist: https://playlist.shellshockedradio.com/link/griyke If you rather wa...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Depeche Mode - Little 15 - Epic Sadness in a Pop Song #243
March 01, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.47 MBWell, what can I say about one of the greatest Pop Bands? @Depeche Mode is amazing in so many regards. They are still making (relevant) music to this day, a feat not replicated very often. This song "Little 15" is taking me, and most likely you, if you are a bit older, along memory lane. And yes ... I was young, in love and in my formative years ... and still, I think it is a great song, when I try to "look" at it more neutral, as a Radio DJ. Anyway, give it a spin if you have not ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Ludovico Technique - Absence #109
February 28, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.67 MBHell Yeah! Back to recommending "real" #gothic content on my Goth centered channel! @Ludovico Technique tick all the boxes for a great goth rock / industrial rock band. Great vocals, music and VISUALS! I love it! One of the very first "big" bands following me on Twitter ( https://twitter.com/MEGALMODAS ) which is pretty cool in my book as I'm a virtual "nobody". Anyway, they really do great goth music, and I have played them repeatedly on my radio show and they are repeatedly in my...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Therapy? - Diane - Haunting Hüsker Dü Cover Apocalyptica Style #242
February 27, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.62 MBThis is of course a cover of the great Hüsker Dü, as I know now. But honestly, as I heard the song for the first time in the @Therapy? String Version, I thought he was singing about "Dying" which is not that far off considering the subject matter. The song is a hauntingly beautiful quiet string laden "Anti" Love Song of sorts. I really like it, but at the same time it creeps me out. If you do not know it yet, form your own opinion here: https://youtu.be/md7SJ1kDE24 here: ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Shireen - SO HUMAN OF YOU - spellbinding & enchanting Witch-Pop #241
February 26, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.33 MBYeah! Finally a new Genre as @Shireen invented the genre Witchpop to classify their musical style. Something between folk, acoustic, electronic & pop. Well, it is great! Besides the great voice of the lead singer, I implore you to check out their gorgeous video! Witches know how to dress for sure! It is "enchanting" and "spellbinding" ;) Check it out here: https://youtu.be/dNeTflipN6w https://open.spotify.com/track/5TUEW3nrdzvV4iUtkSckCk?si=2e5e7958db6d4dee Here it is...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Violent Femmes - Blister in the Sun - Acoustic, folksy goodness #241
February 26, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.29 MBYou did not expect to see the @Violent Femmes here, right? ;) But remember, I have a soft spot for good folksy acoustic music, just check my recommendation of @The Dead South . So this song "Blister in the Sun" is a really nice, quirky, weird & well crafted Pop Folk Song. Snarky lyrics & acoustic instruments, a very well done mix. Not Gothic, Industrial or Darkwave of course, but if you have a bad day and need a song to cheer you up, this one is for you: https://youtu.be/hYZkoI...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Terence Trent D'Arby / Sananda Maitreya - Sign Your Name #108
February 25, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.76 MBHey Guys, once again a little oddity in my portfolio. This is of course no Darkwave, Gothic or Industrial, but I love this song nevertheless. Maybe I was young and impressionable / formative as this came out, but it really touched and spoke to me. I like the simplicity and the attention of the voice work. It is the closest I ever came to love an R'n B or Soul Song, but I full heartily can recommend the song to you, if you are younger and just discover it or if you are older and re-di...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Darkher - Wars - gloomy & Moody female voiced synth doom Rock #240
February 24, 2022 05:00 - 1 minute - 1.8 MBThis is one of these songs which is really hard to describe. Somewhere in between doom, gloom, post rock, gothic rock, synth soundscapes ... compared often to @CHELSEA WOLFE but being very much its own thing. This song lives from its haunting atmosphere, which is very hard to describe, so please just take my word for it and check it out! It is a beautiful, hauntingly good song ;) https://youtu.be/9naPZ-l-qqg https://open.spotify.com/track/1osNfgqO6nIGwtie97l931?si=dbccab6b72f346a...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - CALABRESE - He who flees the Light #107
February 23, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.75 MBToday I recommend the cool Horror Punk Band in Disguise: @CALABRESE Okay, they title themselves as "Horror Rock", but as I've found out through my talks with Left Hand Black (from GOTHenburg ;) as well as with the grapic designer Anthony, they are a big number in the Horror Punk Scene. And that rightfully so, as they are really cool dudes, check out my Talk with Davey Calabrese here: https://youtu.be/KoSIuFjc_20 Anyway, I love their song "He who flees the Light", fast going to t...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Max Raabe - Kein Schwein ruft mich an - the 1920's & 30's live #239
February 22, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.54 MB @MaxRaabeVEVO and his Palast Orchester are a very unique brand of music. Mr. Raabe developed a great love for the music of the 1920's & 30's and started his own spin on it, revisiting the singing and performance styles of the time and spicing it up with ironic / funny lyrics not unequal to his idols of the Comedian Harmonists. This is no Darkwave or Gothic Rock of course, but it has this kind of old school melancholic sound and it is just very well put together music, so I'm very sur...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Urfaust - Voodoo Dust #106
February 21, 2022 05:00 - 1 minute - 1.22 MBHey Guys, I do not know anything about this artists, besides that I know what "Urfaust" originally meant as I life close to one of the places where Goethe lived and worked. Besides that, it is also hard to pinpoint what this music really is. It is dark and gloomy / doomy, with a strange vocal style, BUT I really like it, so might you, and that's why I highly recommend to check out this over 8 minute long track: https://youtu.be/3V0UG5_Gx7Q https://open.spotify.com/track/2iQRBac5Sip0...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Men Without Hats - Safety Dance - cheesy 80's synth pop for you #238
February 20, 2022 17:00 - 2 minutes - 2.34 MB @MenWithoutHatsVEVO ... Yes that is cheesy 80's synth pop, but I still have a soft spot for it. And if you never have heard this quirky song, give it a spin, it might make you smile inside and outside ;) I even have a, very slight, connection to the band. From 2005 to 2007 I was living in Montreal, Quebec / Canada and had a band there. We were rehearsing in the same rehearsal house where the men without hats had rehearsed as they were still in Montreal. Anyway, this is clearly a ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - FleischKrieg - DOROS - Industrial Metal done right w/ HERZBLUT #237
February 19, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.55 MBHell Yeah! @FleischKrieg the one and only NDH Metal Band from LA, my friends in the quest of dominating the world with great heavy music! As you can clearly hear and see ... I'm absolutely biased here. You can say that I'm "To-biased" ;) These are my buddies and I really like them, BUT there Song DOROS is really good and you should definitely check them out. They kill live! I'm currently trying to get them over here for a Europe Tour, if you can help me in any capacity of making that...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - OOMPH! feat. Nina Hagen - Fieber #105
February 18, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.77 MBNina Hagen is an icon here in Germany / in the German speaking realm. She started her career in the east German / Russian Zone behind the iron curtain and then moved to West Germany / the capitalist Germany. She labels herself the mother of punk and has a really great range music and vocal wise. So here she is now singing together with @OOMPH! an (German) icon by themselves. Harsh guitars and electronic rhythm, exactly my kind of music. But I never was a real big committed fa...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - DYS RichMAN - All 2 Gether - positive Beat Rock / Electro Punk #236
February 18, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.1 MBThis is "DYS RichMAN's" Song "All 2 Gether". He calls it Beat Rock. It has some Industrial & Electronic roots, which I like very much of course, so it fits perfectly in my usual portfolio. What really makes it "recommendation" and "shout out" worthy though, is its very positive message, which I can get behind absolutely. So check out this "Beat Rock" Song and let me know if you like it in the comments! https://youtu.be/Txht7Kwg37w https://open.spotify.com/track/2o8jwjXmopDPkCznfw...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - ERRARE HUMANUM EST - King Sinister - Metal Step at its finest #235
February 17, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.51 MBHell Yeah! You know what time it is? Time for shameless self promotion. King Sinister is the Metal Step / Industrial Rock / Metal side project I have with the great Simplefixty from Norway. This is our take on NDH and all the nice metal goodness. Here in this song, I try a different vocal style, to emancipate me a bit from the Forefathers of German NDH Rock and Metal like @Rammstein Official and @EISBRECHER official . Please let me know if I succeeded in your ears :) https://y...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Hanzel und Gretyl - Fukken Uber Death Party #104
February 16, 2022 05:00 - 3 minutes - 2.79 MBHell Yeah! This band is a lot of fun. I love their style overall, heavy guitars, stomping rhythms and soooooooooooooo bad German :D : D :D On a serious note, as they are "non-germans" they can get away with some imagery which might get you in jail in Germany or at least a fine you would have to pay. As any mentioning or even perceived glorification of the third Reich is forbidden by law. I've lived abroad long enough to know that other countries and cultures are way more relaxed ...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - DIE KRUPPS - Nazis Auf Speed - the German Wonder Drug in music #234
February 15, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.66 MBHell Yeah! Finally @DIE KRUPPS official they have been around "forever". Starting in the 80's with electronic and synth music, covering @Metallica brought them their first fame. Later on they incorporated guitars in their songs and became more like Ministry. I do not like all their songs, "to the Hilt" for example, but most of their songs are really great and fall exactly into my portfolio, but today I want to recommend the funny take from them on the "German Wonder Drug" (Pervitin...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Tears for Fears - Shout #103
February 14, 2022 05:00 - 4 minutes - 4.43 MBOh Yeah! Back to the 80's back to @TearsForFearsVEVO @Tears For Fears a band which ruled back then. Lots of hits under their belt, but, deservedly so, at least in my humble opinion of course. Great bombastic pop rock meets interesting and well thought of lyrics and themes. The band has quite a few things going for itself, so I might recommend a few more of their songs in the future, which you all might know, but I'm pretty sure would not be unhappy to re-visit. So here is the ori...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - HEALTH - Decimation - Industrial / Noise Rock from Los Angeles #233
February 13, 2022 17:00 - 2 minutes - 2.74 MBI have to admit this band, HEALTH, flew under my radar for quite some time, but I finally found them and happily share my find with you, if you have not heard of them before, like me just recently. They do Industrial / Noise Rock and are from Los Angeles where my friends @FleischKrieg and @Edge Of Paradise are from as well, so once again like Swedens "GOTHenburg" quite a hub for great bands. Noise Rock or Industrial might mislead you a bit in the case of my recommended song, which i...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Morcheeba - Tape Loop - The beginning of Trip Hop w/ downtempo #232
February 12, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.43 MBA friend of mine introduced me to @Morcheeba and their music in the 1990's and I was intrigued right away. This music mix I had never heard before. Yes there has been the massive success of @Portishead SOS but this was "just" trip hop ... Morcheeba did add some more "melancholy" and saccharine bitter-sweetness into the mix, though it downtempo and folksy influences. Clearly some kind of music I never heard before. Dreamy and moving at the same time. Not my usual oeuvre for su...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - PAKT - LICHTERLOH #102
February 11, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.73 MBHey Guys, unfortunately this band "Pakt" (the German word for "Pact") already disbanded in 2016. Founded by two ex-members of @And One they were apparently not successful (enough) to stay together for long. Sehr Schade ... And One started as a German @Depeche Mode clone but found their own footing later on. So you know what you are in for by "Pakt" very cool electronic rhythms, cool vocals, just a really pleasant song, check it out here: https://youtu.be/zoLb7Pv04Ug Here i...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Kyshera - Coma - Playful Alternative Rock w/out boundaries #231
February 10, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.24 MBThis is playful Alternative Rock from Cardiff @KYSHERA . Fun but somber, with no blinders or boundaries in sight. Man, I love that song! The play with the singers voice, the intricate song structure, which is never overbearing ... this is a well crafted (alternative) Rock Song. This band needs more (eyes and) ears.

February 09, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.56 MBRecently I had the pleasure to get to know @Dr. Mark Benecke's Official Youtube Channel who is a really cool dude who is a forensic expert, check my (German) talk with him here: https://youtu.be/GNDY0rhf2b0 He also appears in a lot of videos and one I liked particularly well, from "HELL-O-MATIC" the Song "Maggots" (in German Dr. Mark Benecke is sometimes called "Lord of the Maggots" / Herr der Maden) so that's why it is the perfect song for him to appear in.

Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - Die Ärzte - Mysteryland - Germany's oldest (Pop) Punk Band #229
February 06, 2022 17:00 - 2 minutes - 2.64 MBYeah, once again @Die Ärzte in my recommendations. Germany's oldest Pop Punk Band and self proclaimed "best band of the world". They have been around seemingly for ever and managed to stay relevant to this day, quite a feat! This song now "Mysteryland" is over 30 years old and I discovered it back in the days on my cassette in my Walkman ... in a time as we still used rotary phones ... yes it is that old. But it fits perfectly in my normal portfolio as it is leaning towards Gothic...
Shellshocked Radio Recommendations - B-2 — Peklo / Би-2 — Пекло - Belarusian Alternative Goodness #228
February 05, 2022 05:00 - 2 minutes - 2.65 MB @Би-2 are really hard to classify musically. Alternative Rock, Post Punk, Gothic Rock and Indie Rock come to mind.

This is true craftsmanship, as they do what is ...
