? MALE TEARS • Los Angeles / USA ?

Male Tears is a synthpop band from Los Angeles, founded by vocalist James Edward in late 2019. What began as Edward’s personal artistic outlet has since evolved into a full band project.
Blending synthpop, darkwave, italo disco, EBM and futurepop ?? into a sound they define as “Dark Rave”, Male Tears fuse irony, camp aesthetics and 80s new wave influences to create weirdo-pop that both celebrates and critiques underground music culture.
The band are currently preparing their new studio album ? (scheduled for release in 2026 on Artoffact Records), with the first single arriving in early 2026.
Expect fan favourites such as “Hit Me” and “Belladonna”, alongside brand-new material ?

⚡ XTR HUMAN • Berlin / Germany ⚡
? https://linktr.ee/xtrhuman
Born in fire ? and tempered in the batcaves and warehouse raves of Berlin, Johannes Stabel brings a leather-wrapped hammer to gothic nightlife. A dominant force among burnt strobes, grime-soaked venues and endless nights, XTR HUMAN is revered for his high-energy live performances ⚙️?
His deeply rich and arresting vocals echo the dark romance of 80s legends, while brutal bass blasts and modernised hardbody EBM beats collide in an uncompromising sonic assault ?? — a relentless rhythm that truly puts the Schwarz in Schwarzenegger.
