This Canadian Musician kicks @ss with her style of music. Infectious dance grooves with mesmerizing vocals on such tracks as "DISEASE". Once you hear her you will become an instant fan as I have. Very cool and down to Earth Ayria is on tour in Europe now and you can hear her music on Shadow Radio.

I discovered this band on the internet and immediately enjoyed the intrusion in my ear socket. Innovative industrialesque sounds will grace your player. If unique and good is your goal when finding new music these guys are your fix. Give "LOST" a listen on Shadow Radio and you won't be sorry. I wasn't!!!!

In Asunder is a dark and deep in the depths of a chasm as you await for the cat to jump out from the side of the movie screen band that will scare the f*cking crap out of you with the rustic vocals of satan at the mic. You will swear that evil himself jumped into the voice of the lead and commands you. Listen if you dare. You will be entertained and frightened. Just like the good little boy and girl you are.

Besides being one of the most influencial and successful bands U2 also has one of the most caring and outspoken lead in all of music. Their shows are not to be missed and with Bono as a spokesmen for One.org, it's no wonder why these guys are loved around the world.

This agressive style band rocks me out with videos that remind me of TOOL even though their sound is far from that. The rifts are hardcore and attention grabbing while the lyrics compliment the music. First time in a long time where I have listen to a group that tried to have a hard rough lead vocals and it fit. So grab a few of their songs and enjoy.

Life of Agony is one of the most kick @ss bands I have ever had the pleasure to be friends with. I met them first in Baltimore, MD (even though I heard their music years prior) and afterwards have been a loyal fan. Hardcore motherf*ckers from Brooklyn, NY they drive a crowd into a moshpit frenzy. Shadow Radio is proud to call these guys friend and even would come straight from surgery just to see them. If that isn't hardcore then nothing is.

Okay I have been to hundreds of shows and have to say that VNV Nation puts on one of the best I have ever seen in modern concerts. Two guys making the whole room shake with dancing beats and thought provoking lyrics. These guys are some of the nicest and coolest to chat with after a show. They are not divas and do not care how a venue looks as long as they get to play to their fans. They haven't let their egos get ahead of the reason music is made. If you have the chance to see them live do not miss it because you will hate yourself later in life.

A band with a very unique sound yet still grounded and faithful to the gothicesque style that engraves its lyrics with danceable beats. Marilyn My Bitterness is their staple song that many fans like myself were first introduced and as for me I can not stop listening to this song. Sometimes I play it ten times in a row and I have done this for over 2 years. If that is not a statement to how good their music is nothing will win you over. You should still listen and see why I make the claim I have and myself shall remain an advid fan.

These guys are looney and their music is rockin. They definitely don't act their age when doing interviews or when at shows except when they are on stage at least they play like they mean it. They have a great presence and I enjoyed listening to their work. They also have hot girlfriends. That doesn't hurt. So if you get a chance to listen to them or are in Florida and can see them live I suggest you pack up the kiddies and go hang with these funky guys. Oh yeah and one of them is from NY.

Okay these guys I met online and got to listen to their music which absolutely kick A$$. They give me a feel of either VNV Nation only harder or a Front Line Assembly feel. Either way their music is incredible and worthy listening to over and over.

One of my all-time favorite artist and especially this album has hit me like no other. Some of the most inovative and layered music you will ever hear. If you never heard anything from Delerium you are not a true music lover. Besides the Sarah McLachlan collaboration, Delerium has taken other angelic voices from other sources that moves my soul everytime I listen to these songs. A far cry from their other projects that have been more agressive and equally shaping of my being.

An agressive industrial band from Mexico, they have taken this scene by storm and are a step ahead of the "leaders" of the industrial movement. It's like Skinny Puppy meets VNV Nation. Their latest, "Spirits Of Crime", is one of the most caustic to the senses which demands movement on the dance floor. This is what industrial music should do and has been forgotten but now once again found under the new kings of industrial, Hocico.

One of the most innovative sounds I have been exposed to in a long time. I enjoy hearing the different concoctions created by this band. Some of their other projects are even more fun to listen to but with different names of the bands. I haven't understood why they used different names with the same people making the music but maybe it is like the ones who have been involved with Project Pitchfork/FLA and the like when they change the name of the band because the sound isn't exactly similar to their last album. Who knows? All I know is good music is good music so give Ouroboros a listen. When you need to relax this ambient group brings peace to your soul.

Okay so who hasn't heard of the Cure? If not you shouldn't even be on this web page because you are not and do not understand music and should not be allowed to dictate what bands get made in this industry. Personally, I have traveled with the Cure on one of their tours as a fan not working for them and enjoyed the road trip that took me to five states in five days. Though I enjoy their older music much more than recent albums you have to admit that ROBERT SMITH has stayed true to his style and didn't have to "reinvent" himself to keep a fan base. I respect that above all else and like U2 is the reason why staying a fan is never a closet confession.

I first heard these girls when, like many other bands, I was overseas. Hailing from Australia, these girls have voices that knock me out even though their lyrics aren't very deep. Their vocal sound absolutely makes up for their cheesey rhymes. Plus they are hot and have a hardcore attitude and feel which is also a major swing towards their side. So if you haven't heard them yet check them out on this radio station and contact them through their link here on this page.

WOW!!! What can I say about Peter Murphy? The man is the best in Gothic music with cool lyrics and amazing songs. His concerts I have seen were always quaint. The one that had Jewel open for him at the 9:30 Club was crazy because to me they aren't even close to the same style at the same time he made up for the booking issue with his energy and style that has kept me as a fan for (oh damn I am old) 20 years? Can that be right? Well when you are good and true to your art as Peter is you tend to last in this industry. My favorite album is of course DEEP "Strange Kind Of Love", "Marlene Dietrich's Favorite Poem" and "Cuts You Up" to name the best songs on that album. My next favorite is CASCADE with "I'll Fall With Your Knife" as my favorite on that album. So if you too like those songs you can hear them all on Shadow Radio in due time as well as other great music. So sit back and relax and listen and check out his website for more info on all his work.

This band is known to many people, with cool dance tunes with morbid lyrics. "Digital Dream" and "Try To Forget" to name a couple of their songs De/Vision has a unique yet familar underground sound. If you have never heard of De/Vision stick around and give thema listen here on Shadow Radio.

Again another band with their own sound yet still deep with the original godfathers of goth/industrial that true fans of this style recognise and flow through the club moving and seething with the message behind the song. "Iolite" is my favorite of their work and I love to crank up the speakers when this song thumps its way through my ears. Another great band you can listen to here on Shadow Radio.

Comments Coming Soon

Alright so I have many bands that I absolutely love and Depeche Mode is no exception. Best show I ever saw was them with Stabbing Westward opening for them in VA. One of the original Sympop bands to grace the 80's, Depeche Mode still knocks out albums in the new millenium and changing singers never stopped them ffrom producing vintage Depeche Mode. From "People Are People" (Which is one of my all time favorite of theirs) to their latest album Depeche Mode always stays faithful to their fans.
