PRIEST [Sweden] @priestofficial
Priest is a synth-driven force that creates music rooted in the vastness of electronic dreams. The goal of their multifaceted prophecy is to safely guide humanity unto the next evolutionary step - the merging with machines.
This occult technopop act from Sweden dives deeper into harder synth textures: EBM and big beat-chaos throwing you headfirst into the flickering neon of 80s scifi, clashing with the relentless pulse of gothic and industrial soundscapes.
With several praised global tours and critically acclaimed releases like New Flesh and Body Machine, Priest has carved out a devoted and ever-growing international following. Their high-octane live shows are a full sensory assault - a cybernetic ritual of pure machine power.
The enigmatic trio - vocalist Mercury, keyboardist Salt, and programmer/keyboardist Sulfur now return with their new release "CHAOS EP".

Priest delivers every time. They put everything into their performances and it’s surreal. We never miss a show when they come to town. I’ve been blessed 3 times and can’t wait for my 4th. Plus they’re good guys and actually appreciate their fans 🫶🖤

FROZEN PLASMA [Switzerland / Germany] | @frozenplasma
Frozen Plasma is the symbiosis of high-energy Future Pop and profound social critique. The
duo Vasi Vallis and Felix Marc understand their sound as Synthetic Humanism: a sonic
reflection on alienation, identity, and social tension, wrapped in a subcultural club aesthetic
— a Trojan horse within club culture.
Guided by the principle of subversive camouflage, the band uses the dancefloor as a space
for critical discourse. While scene anthems like “Tanz die Revolution” trigger immediate
euphoria on the surface, at their core they function as radical manifestos against capitalist
mechanisms. Frozen Plasma refuses simple glorification: tracks such as “Murderous Trap”
or “Crazy” are not homages, but acoustic halls of mirrors that dissect escapism and the
fragility of the human psyche.
This contrast — a sociocultural dissection disguised as Future and Electro Pop — has
established Frozen Plasma as a defining force within the scene. With consistent chart
success (DAC, GEWC), an intense live presence on major festival stages (M’era Luna,
Amphi Festival, Wave-Gotik-Treffen), and hundreds of international shows, the duo proves
that danceability is not the opposite of depth, but the vehicle for a message that endures.

AESTHETIC PERFECTION [Austria + Los Angeles] | @thisisaestheticperfection
Aesthetic Perfection is the industrial pop project of Los Angeles-born, Austria-based
singer-songwriter-producer Daniel Graves. For over 26 years, the project has pushed
the boundaries of dark electro, fusing industrial aggression with pop precision, goth
atmospherics, and forward-thinking production across seven full-length albums,
numerous singles, and a visually striking catalog of music videos.
Though never beholden to mainstream trends, Aesthetic Perfection has cultivated a
fiercely loyal global audience, selling out headlining tours throughout Europe and
North America. Renowned for their relentless drive and explosive live performances,
the project has earned slots on some of the world’s largest stages, including multiple
arena tours supporting Till Lindemann (Rammstein) across Europe and North America
Beyond the stage, Aesthetic Perfection has built an extensive network of high-profile
collaborations, working with Richard Z. Kruspe (Rammstein), Sean Beavan (Nine Inch
Nails, Marilyn Manson, Guns N’ Roses), SINIZTER, Jinxx (Black Veil Brides), Rhys Fulber
(Fear Factory / Frontline Assembly), Celldweller, Nikki Misery (New Year’s Day), and
Sebastian Svalland (Pain / Katatonia / Lindemann). The band’s music has also
appeared in Netflix original programming and on the Underworld: Awakening soundtrack, further cementing its presence within alternative culture.
Aesthetic Perfection will be co-headlining Sunday night at Dark Force Fest and will be hosting a meet and greet for VIP ticket holders.

![Stay is out now on YouTube. 🌙🤍
One night, one too-honest conversation, and two people who may not want the same things, or know how to say so.
What begins as casual intimacy drifts into old heartbreaks, almost-confessions, and the question neither of them quite knows how to answer: what if, just this once, someone stayed?
Watch our new queer short film now. Link in bio. 🤍
And tell us, would you have asked him to stay?
