It’s only been a few weeks since this EP was released and already “re:lectro” is selling faster than you can say “EBM!”. The EP has been getting great reviews across the globe and tracks like, “Dark Sky”, and “Secret Ground” are highly requested on the dance floors. Only after one week of the release the EP had tracks in the top 3 on the German GEWC charts, and it’s still there.
Autodafeh has been finding massive success since they first arrived on the scene with the album “Hunt For Glory”. That album sold out of it’s first pressing and is now some blogs/fans say it’s a collector item! All we can say is, WOW! and thanks!
The band has also been getting many requests for live performances and has played in Sweden, Germany, Italy. Along with Mika’s gust appearances in Belgium and France! The band has a few more gigs this year, including the Collapsed City Festival in Poland. The band is also working on deal for a possible US tour next year.
Check out the new “re:lectro” shirts! You can get the CD and Shirt for cheaper if you buy them together.
Autodafeh is currently working on finishing the next full album, “Identity Unknown”… to be released later this year. The album will include some special surprise guests that will surprise you all!
Here is a teaser track from the new album with the beautiful Anki Rosanna dancing to it!

This past weekend Autodafeh had two gigs in Sweden. But these two were special, they got to open for the EBM masters themselves, Front 242! Below is what ADF had to say about the weekend in their blog. And see the free MP3 link!
On Friday we went to Gothenburg to Trägårn to play support for Front 242 and on Saturday we went to Malmö and had the opportunity to open for them again.
They put on a great show!
Strangely though their airline managed to lose one of their suitcases (again) and their drummer was left without a pad! Luckily we had one he could use

Our gigs went really well and the audience was great and we’ve never played for such a large crowed. GBG had about 750 people and KB had about 800 (we think). A great experience.
This was our set list :
1 – Anger And Hate
2 – Crash And burn
3 – One Man
4 – No Names
5 – Stompers
6 – Mother Green
7 – Souls Of Destruction
8 – Bodycount
9 – Fuel Of Fire

In only a short few months not only are they mastering the charts but also managing to create quite a stir. The band was recently scheduled to open for the EBM giants, Front 242 for to concert dates in January 2009. They are also scheduled to appear at the annual “Electrixmas” Fest. in Malmo, Sweden.
“Hunt For Glory” will be released worldwide on Sigsaly Transmissions on November 7th. 2008.
