Foetus (aka J.G. Thirlwell) is back with a new CD/DVD set entitled LOVE.

“LOVE is a sweeping dramatic epic drenched in harpsichord and orchestras with jarring left turns, bombast and seduction. It features duet with Jennifer Charles of Elysian Fields and an appearance by the amazing Pamelia Kurstin, the world’s foremost thereminist!

“It also comes with a DVD containing 3 videos from LOVE including Blessed Evening directed by Karen O (YeahYeahYeahs) with director of photography Spike Jonze, and (not adam) directed by Jeremy Solterbeck, with trailers of the J.G. Thirlwell-scored Venture Brothers (currently airing on Adult Swim/Cartoon Network), as well as classic early live footage, the Rotoskop video Mary Magdalene featuring JGT, a video meditation on the song How to Vibrate by Kurt Ralske, never before seen footage from upcoming J.G. Thirlwell documentary and much much more! and lets not forget the deluxe 12 page booklet!”

The new release is available from the Foetus online shop at www.foetus.org. It’s priced at $14.00 plus/postage handling, and comes with a free sticker.

Nitzer Ebb, the British band responsible for such aggro electronic classics as “Join In The Chant” and “Captivate” will soon be embarking on their first tour since the early 90’s. The reunited group will kick things off on June 6 in Haarlem, Holland and end up in New York City on September 17. According to the official Nitzer Ebb website, the shows will focus on their early albums (”so it will be a very electronic sounding show - no guitars!.”) The group also has a new “Best Of” Compilation out called “Body Of Work.” For more info, be sure to check out their webiste!
