THE CASSANDRA COMPLEX und SJÖBLOM

In the organizer's words:

Post-punk and industrial pioneers The Cassandra Complex are returning to the stage in November, touring in support of their new album 'Generating Station Complex' - a bold reimagining that strips their classic catalog down to its foundations and rebuilds the tracks from the ground up.

The announcement follows the band's landmark 40th anniversary tour, which saw them play 49 shows in 13 countries between 2024 and 2025 - a tour that proved the band and their songs have lost none of their power. "Generating Station Complex" is the direct result of this energy.

The album reunites the original trio from the 1980s: Rodney Orpheus (vocals, synthesizer, drum machines), Paul Dillon (synthesizer, drum machines) and Andy Booth (guitar, keyboards). Together they've taken the DNA of their best-known tracks and run them through the full force of their modern set-up, louder, sharper and more visceral than any previous incarnation.

Fans of The Cassandra Complex know that a show is never just a show - the band's live performances are renowned for their intense, immersive atmosphere, and this tour promises to heighten that even further. Lighting engineer Martin Reissner - long regarded as the band's invisible fourth member - returns to lead the production, with more lights, more videos and more lasers.

For over four decades, The Cassandra Complex have managed to do something that very few bands manage: they have become more intense, rather than less. Formed in the mid-1980s, the band were among the first to combine the visceral physicality of industrial music with the emotional immediacy of post-punk, creating a sound that has influenced generations of artists without ever being watered down by them. A show by The Cassandra Complex is not background music. It is not nostalgia. It's an event - one that leaves the audience shaken, excited and wanting more.

Supporting at all EU club dates will be Swedish post-punk duo Sjöblom.
