Moving
pictures, please! You all know youtube.com, don’t you? I was positively surprised to find quite a few videos with Apoptose music there. Some of them are really nice but most are somehow “minimal”: just one single still image for the whole running time of the song. Yes, I know the purpose of these clips but they are boring anyway. Directing video-clips isn't exactly my favorite hobby. All video-software that I tried in the past drove me nuts so I dropped the whole thing for the sake of keeping my inner peace. But I am sure there are a lot of talented people out there who know how to do it. So all the video enthusiasts amongst you are kindly encouraged to warm up the equipment, choose your favorite Apoptose song(s) and direct a video the way you like it. No matter if it is abstract or realistic or a cartoon or anything else. It is completely up to you what you consider to be adequate for the respective song. There is only one requirement: moving pictures, please! There is no deadline, just think about it for some time and an appropriate idea will arise sooner or later. Feel free to contact me via nordland[at]apoptose[dot]net when you have any more questions. This is not meant to be a competition. Let's just make youtube a better place. ;-) I am looking forward to seeing your creative works! I am going to link the clips to apoptose.net and/or the Apoptose myspace profile. R. | ||

2009:
spring/summer
news In spring we finished the work on Apoptose's fourth album "BANNWALD". It will be released later this year via TESCO Organisation. Some information on that and in depth talk about the Warrior Creed LP is featured in a new interview with Apoptose that was recently published by necroweb.de. This interview is in German language. We updated our "Live"-section here with some pictures of the ApocalypticFolk-Silvester performance in Leipzig. | ||
Warrior Creed LP It took some time but it was worth waiting: The Joy of Life/Apoptose LP "Warrior Creed" was released on the day of the Winter Solstice 2008! Mastering was completed on Summer Solstice so this release is perfectly in tune with the cosmic cycle. You see, we do everything to enhance your listening pleasure... The gatefold cover became a real beauty. You'll love it! Please check the recently updated "Artwork" space for a closer look. You can also listen to some song-previews on the Apoptose myspace profile. The LP is available now from TESCO and in the coming weeks from the usual special interest dealers. It is limited to 600 copies, so don't wait too long! Some people asked if "Warrior Creed" would be released on CD as well. Sorry, but at the moment there are no plans to do that. For more info click on the album cover.

2008: all three albums
on last.fm and elsewhere Most of you know last.fm - this big web-community/radio. Of course Apoptose has a profile there, too. Until a couple of weeks ago it was quite boring but now it improved a lot: There you find fullength previews of all tracks of all three Apoptose albums! You can listen to them for free as often as you wish. You can also access it very easily with the last.fm widget you find here on the right side. => This was made possible by TESCO's recent "web-offensive". They placed much of their catalogue in legal download shops and webmusic-portals worldwide. | ||

Apoptose = LP We

2008: unauthorised
"limited edition" During the past months several copies of a so called “limited edition” of the latest Apoptose album “Schattenmädchen” surfaced in different online shops. Judging from pictures and descriptions, this item consists of the original album and an additional CD-R of unknown contents. This CD-R is in no way part of the original concept and package of “Schattenmädchen” and does not contain any music by Apoptose! (read more...) | ||

2008: awards for
Apoptose Grammy,
Oscar, Golden Globe? Who cares? Let's talk about the really important
awards: Apoptose's Schattenmädchen was voted "Best
dark ambient album 2007" by the editors of Stigmata
magazine from Belarus (sharing the top spot with Desiderii
Marginis). And that is not all: Our live show in Wroclaw/Poland last
November was voted in the Top 5 "Best
concerts of 2007" by
the readers of the Beast of Prey magazine. Thank you very much! We hope for the "Lifetime Achievement Award" in 2050... ;-) | ||
| February 2008:
