Pelagic Fest 2024 15th anniversary edition August 24 / 25 @Muziekgieterij , Maastricht The Ocean Ihsahn And So I Watch You From Afar Oh Hiroshima A Swarm Of The Sun Psychonaut Year Of No Light LLNN EF Arms And Sleepers Lost In Kiev Spurv Hippotraktor Briqueville Årabrot Karin Park Thot Glassing Bipolar Architecture NYOS Love Sex Machine Playgrounded WuW Jegong We’re excited to announce that 6 years after the last edition in Berlin, Pelagic Fest is finally back this year: together with many of our current artists, we will be celebrating 15 years of the label at an amazing venue in Maastricht, situated right in the border triangle between Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. Why not in Berlin, you may ask? While we absolute love our hometown, the venue landscape unfortunately is not great. A place like the Muziekgieterij simply doesn’t exist in Berlin. With a 1.100 capacity main stage and a 450 capacity 2nd stage, it‘s an amazing well-wrought place catering to the needs of both artists and audience, a place that was built to be a venue, planned by acoustic architects… and at the same time offers a nice environment to hang out, chat, browse through vinyl distro boxes and chill between the performances. And truth be told, we have 10x more artists from France and Belgium in our roster than from Germany 😄 While we‘re beyond stoked that we‘ve managed to put this lineup together, it goes without saying that sadly not every Pelagic artist can play this year… but that leavs leaves something to look forward to for the coming years! In order to be able to do that, we need your support: please buy a ticket — we’ve tried to keep the ticket price as low as can be, while aspiring to pay our bands decent fees. Please don’t expect miracles, the world is not the same anymore after the pandemic and a festival of this scope is a risky endeavour... We hope you are as excited about this as we are. See you in Maastricht in August! 💥 Tickets for Pelagic Fest will go on sale 12PM CET, Friday 15th March.

🔥 A SWARM OF THE SUN announce new album ‘An Empire’, to be released September 6! Returning from time apart to a world forever changed, dread-fuelled duo A SWARM OF THE SUN bring with them their fourth studio album, ‘An Empire’; its brooding, yet beautiful, melancholic narrative arc allows the band to dig ever deeper into desolation whilst a newfound lyrical focus adds a tenderness that is both harrowing and heartwarming at once. Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden; Erik Nilsson and Jakob Berglund have been producing inimitable, sombre soundscapes as A Swarm of the Sun for 17 years. A series of monumental albums, 2010’s groundbreaking debut ‘Zenith’, post-metal masterpiece ‘The Rifts’ in 2015 and its breathtakingly stark follow up ‘The Woods’ in 2019 have seen the understated outfit carve out their own uncompromisingly bleak place within the international heavy scene. With the early bones of forthcoming ‘An Empire’ tabled by events beyond their control in 2019, Erik and Jakob came together years later and scrapped them in favour of creating something entirely new; something distinctly different to break the cycle, defy categorisation and reflect the uncomfortable uncertainties of the times we now live in. The result is astounding; continuing the thread of narrative composition seen on ‘The Woods’, ‘An Empire’ is a six-track tale told in four distinct movements that are nothing short of devastating, from plaintive piano ballads to raw, full-band fury. Pre-orders for 2x12“ vinyl housed in an embossed gatefold, CD digipak, and new merchandise are now live over at our website & the link in our bio. Get ready for the first 7-minute epos ‘The Burning Wall’ to drop tomorrow! 👏🏻

🔥 Happy release day OH HIROSHIMA! 🎉 Their new album ‘All Things Shining’ is a breathtaking exploration of the duplicitous nature of time and ageing; the double edged sword of amassing life-affirming experiences that inevitably dim our perception of the world around us. However, as the title suggests, Oh Hiroshima are adamant that all is not lost; with songs inspired by timeless works of literature and defining moments that have since proved pivotal for Jakob and Oskar throughout their lives, ‘All Things Shining’ is a reminder that, against all odds, the world will always find a way to reclaim its spark and mystique. *** „Oh Hiroshima have quietly perfected the art of sonic evolution without betraying their post-rock origins.“ - @metalhammeruk „The Swedes [tick] all the boxes at the end of these 43 minutes dispatched in 8 tracks, each as inspired as the next.“ - Eklektik Rock „It’s easy to say that Oh Hiroshima‘s career has been a flawless one, and All Things Shining sits delicately atop this success.“ - @actainfernalis „Oh Hiroshima have delivered their most essential work to date.“ - @distortedsound „The contrast between a clear message, a necessary wake-up call and an ornate sound is unusual from a genre perspective, but a welcome change. It shows that Oh Hiroshima has not run out of ideas even after 20 years of band history.“ - @visionsmagazin „This album reflects the excellence of the band’s recent work, and shows further how Oh Hiroshima can masterfully combine elements from shoegaze and post-rock to create dark, brooding atmospheres.“ - @boolintunes *** Stream the full album in its entirety, download as name-your-price on Bandcamp, and grab one of the limited coloured vinyl editions at the link in our bio! 👏🏻

🔥 @theoceancollective are thrilled to have @aswarmofthesun on board with them for their upcoming September run. They’ve been fans of the band since their 2015 album „The Rifts“, which stands out to this day as a true masterpiece of immersive, engrossing contemporary heavy music… and that is not something to be said lightly. Can’t wait to watch them live every night! Side note: drummer Karl Daniel Liden mixed ‚Holocene’ album by...

👆🏻 Have you grabbed the new MONO album „OATH“ on vinyl yet? 👀 In other news: 🔥 LOWER POSTAGE RATES FOR US SUBSCRIBERS We are happy to announce that we have managed to significantly lower postage rates for US subscribers through a new collaboration with @athousandarms . The new postage rates are about 30% cheaper! This is how it works: from now on, we will bulk-ship US subscription parcels to A1KA once per month (via FedEx), which is much cheaper than individual transatlantic shipments, and they will forward the parcels to you (via USPS). All of this is tracked shipping! Our vinyl subscription gives you access to special ltd. colour editions that are exclusively available for our subscribers, delivered every month or every other month to your doorstep, to make sure you won’t miss a single release! Some releases are available only for subscribers, such as a new EP by one of our most well-known bands coming up in September, or the 4 Häxa EPs released throughout this year. We guarantee you a total of 20 releases per year, but if we should release more than that, you will get them all — for the fix monthly price of 39,00€. 2024 will see 25 (!) releases which are part of the vinyl subscription. CD and download subscriptions are also available!
