The Metalheadz back catalogue features almost every major figure in the history of drum and bass, and is one of the most innovative labels out there, consistently crossing boundaries with its releases since 1994. The labels output continues to showcase a maturing genre of music that displays influences from reggae, hip-hop, house and techno with highly-sophisticated and intricately-produced tracks, contrary to the image of the music that is typically presented by the mass media.

Releasing music from some of the biggest names out there whilst at the same time pushing and letting new talent break through are the reasons why Metalheadz continues to stay at the forefront of electronic music.

The Metalheadz label was also the driving force behind the seminal Sunday Session Club Nights, which achieved legendary status at London's Blue Note club. Today, Metalheadz club nights are often sell outs with the label also regularly hosting stages at some of the biggest festivals across the world.

KLONQUE release a bold new Single and Video that is a summary of what is going on these days, the election of Donald Trump as the president of the USA. It also describes what goes on in the world where right wing populism and hate speeches are gaining strength in a very scary way. 
A way that has been there before in Germany. #makestupidgreatagain

Founded early in 2015, KLONQUE is a German based progressive metal group hailing from Berlin and Frankfurt. The group is fronted by Thomas Neitsch (Holy Moses) and Peter Geltat (Holy Moses), both on lead guitars and vocals. KLONQUE is completed by Gerd Lücking (Holy Moses, ex Courageous) on drums and Ishay Sommer (The Outside, Ahvak) on Bass.

After playing thrash together for 20 years, Thomas and Peter have evolved from being side men to front men, both taking on guitars and vocals. Fueled by the desire to create hard, fast and complex metal, they started combining death, thrash, black and progressive technical elements. 

Because the two have been friends and bandmates since high school, songwriting together is second nature. Thomas exchanged his bass guitar, which he wielded for most roles over the last years, for a 12 string guitar.

Peter: "People don't really know it, but Thomas is a really great guitar player. He wrote a lot of the riffs and songs for Redefined Mayhem."

Since the foundation of KLONQUE, four instrumental play­through videos have been released on YouTube ( https://goo.gl/WcAZjd ). Vocals have been recorded with the songs. 

Thomas: "We discovered that our voices fit really well together, when we made pre-production for Holy Moses Redefined Mayhem. With KLONQUE we try to go further and include more melodical lines. As the Beauty and the Beast, but instead of the Beauty just… well, two furry beasts".

KLONQUE incorporates a variety of metal elements into their compositions. Each song is layered heavily in thrash, with grooving bass licks, interweaved progressive solos, and traces of death and black metal all tied together with the accelerated pace of the drums. 
It is clear that bands such as The Haunted, Mastodon, Extol and Gojira have a heavy influence on these compositions. Thomas and Peter are able to translate their musical ideas into vocal expressions. The lyrical themes range from philosophical nihilism and horror to political criticism against nazi fucktards.Thomas growls disdainfully whilst Peter screams about the naked realities of this world. The visual images conjured by these lyrics are intended to provoke critical thought.
