New EDEN CIRCUS single 'Cynics of Life' out now!
Stream the single now on all digital platforms:
https://orcd.co/edencircus_col
10 years have now passed since the last album by the five-piece northern German post-prog rockers EDEN CIRCUS. Since then, events have accelerated. First the band has to say goodbye to both guitarists, because Andi is leaving the band and guitarist Nils is moving to the Krupps. Not only are two important driving forces lost, but also the previous songwriting process.
After Waik and Dennis joined the band, they finally played a few gigs again and worked on the new album. Even before Covid paralyzes the entire music landscape, numerous other events turn the band's everyday life upside down: people move, build houses and 2 1/2 recording studios, start families and new bands. Sometimes the five of them don't see each other for weeks. But there was never any talk about quitting.
Because the rare rehearsals always clearly show that the band can still deliver. In addition, the new record is finished and, despite all the new commitments, no one has lost the joy of presenting their songs to an audience that celebrates their music on sweaty, beer-soaked club evenings. So here’s to something new!

Benthic Lifeforce Records debut album "Sanguine" up now for pre-order as very limited Vinyl LP edition and digital pre-save!
https://orcd.co/benthic_sanguine
"Sanguine" is set to be released on February 28th on all digital platforms, while Vinyl is scheduled to be shipped around March 14th!
Consisting of two guitars, bass, drums and a powerful singer, BENTHIC playing a mixture of powerful hardcore and grooving metal with sustaining melodies. Dark guitar walls and angry roars are constantly being broken down to give room for emotions. An association with the elemental forces of maritime nature in all its beauty and brutality.
Some of you may recognise some familiar faces and you’re right. The band, featuring founding member Sebastian Formella of long-defunct German metal core act DESTINY aka THE DESTINY PROGRAM and Siegmar Holzfuß of progressive rock act EDEN CIRCUS, was formed in Hamburg in 2012.
Taking a long period of writing, countless rehearsals and a few line-up changes, they finally joined as BENTHIC in 2014. Their debut EP called “THE MESS” was released in 2016.
After a long break, BENTHIC now has found a new label home at LIFEFORCE RECORDS and will be back in 2025 with the first full-length “SANGUINE”. With this work, which has matured in complexity and arrangements, BENTHIC wants to create new horizons and is looking forward to a future large and small stages of this world.

"I worked on this song for a very long time and went through a rollercoaster of emotions with it. It is very special to me because it triggers something unique in me, as if it takes me in its arms and looks back with me, in security and with a little distance." - Comments Last Leaf Down mastermind Benjamin Schenk on the new single 'Silence'.
