Mauvaise nouvelle pour les Fan de Propaganda.
Information de Side Line:
Propaganda split up, again
Very bad news reaches us from the Propaganda camp.
The band that had launched a new attack on our sonic nerves, has been laid to rest again.
In a reaction posted on the Mabuse mailinglist Claudia
Brucken says: "The reunion was worth a try, fairly speaking;
but it didn´t work out for us." In another reaction Michael
Mertens said there were too much problems with their work:
the location of the members and their work in their daily business.
The band had prepared several demos and had at least one track ready,
which was produced by Tim Simenon and mixed by Dietmar Maier. The track,
entitled "Cloud 9", included some guitar works by Martin Gore but will
apparently never see the light of day. Claudia will in the future focus
on her work with Andrew Poppy and Paul Humphreys. In the meantime ZTT
is planning a DVD release from the Propaganda collection "Outside World".
This DVD will only be available via ZTT. (Thanks to Uselink for the additional translation)
