Covenant.de allgemein / in general

Wir freuen uns, den Launch der neuen "Covenant.de" - der neuen internationalen Covenant Fan Page - bekannt geben zu können. :-]

Unter der bekannten URL http://www.covenant.de erwartet Euch unter anderem:

* Der Bereich "Your Knowledge Base" mit:
- Vollständige Release-History inkl. aller Compilations und Remixe
- Lyrics - alphabetisch und nach Release
- umfassende Konzerthistorie und kommende Konzerte
- verschiedene Gallerien
- News und Hintergründe
- und vieles mehr!

* Darüber hinaus der Bereich "The Lost Port" der sich dem Schaffen von Covenant auf abstrakte Art und Weise nähert. Darin diverse interessante Artikel die z.B.
- die Funktionsweise eines "Theremin" erläutern
- einen Blick auf die schwedische Stadt "Karlskrona" werfen
- klären, welcher Film "Like Tears in Rain" inspirierte.
- verraten, was "Galionsfiguren" nachgesagt wird
- und vieles mehr!

Die ganze Seite ist komplett zweisprachig auf Deutsch und Englisch und wird natürlich auch in Zukunft stetig ausgebaut!

An dieser Stelle herzlichen Dank an ShadowByte für die kooperative Unterstützung und den Serverplatz und Euch allen viel Spaß mit der neuen Seite! :)

Julia & Manuel

It's absolutely fantastic! I love it.

Was this the site that someone mentioned making with what Thomas had with Plastiq-Flowers? Or just the overdue makeover?

Vielen vielen lieben Dank an euch alle! :) :) :)

Thank very very much to all of you! :) :) :)

@ michelem31:
As we started to work at the page Plastiq Flowers was alredy offline. We wanted to start out with a complete new concept. So what there is to see at the moment we collected by ourselves.

I have lots of interesting links and stuff that will be built in in time for some things we would like to ask for permission firs (pictures for example) - we are no pirates after all. ;) We want to keep this little new-born site growing. Manuel and me have no contact to Thomas but it is thinkable to add parts of the content Plastiq Flowers later on.

There will be updates and new articles soon. We will announce it in the "updates" area here in the forum.

If there is any topic you want to discuss about feel free to open a new thread here. :)

nicht schlecht - die Promo läuft ja auch schon gut an :D
(Zitate aus dem Hardbeat-Newsletter)

"(...) eine völlig neue Internetseite, die nicht nur sehr umfassend ist, sondern auch mit unkonventionellen Hintergrundinformationen zu überraschen weiß.

Die durchgängig zweisprachige Seite (de/en) macht einen durchdachten Eindruck und lässt sich intuitiv navigieren. Eingebettet in ein ansprechendes Design findet man zwei Hauptbereiche vor, in denen die Macher der Seite zwei unterschiedliche Ansätze verfolgen:

Der erste Bereich - "Your Knowledge Base" - bietet eine in dieser Form einmalige und sehr umfangreiche Sammlung von Daten, Fakten und Informationen rund um Covenant. Neben aktuellen Neuigkeiten, einer akribisch recherchierten Diskographie und Songtexten findet sich eine vollständige Liveographie mit Zusatzinfos; außerdem gibt’s verschiedene Bildergalerien, interessante Links und einiges mehr.

Ein etwas ungewöhnliches, aber doch interessantes Konzept wird im zweiten Bereich verfolgt, der sich "The Lost Port" nennt. Hier nähert man sich dem Schaffen der Band auf einem eher abstrakten Level und die Artikel gehen über bloße Fakten hinaus: (...)"

[e] First of all: Thank you all very much! :-]
[d] Zunächst einnmal: Herzlichen dank euch allen! :-]


Topic: Plastiq Flowers - @michelem:

[e] I never even saw the plastiq flowers (shame on me). ;) As we have no contact information with thomas, we develeloped everything from scratch: concept, struktur, grafix and content: everything is brand new. :) of course there might be some familiar categories like "lyrics" or "pictures" etc., just things that are expected from a fan page.

[d] Ich habe die Plastiq Flowers nie gesehen (asche auf mein haupt). ;) Da wir auch keinen Kontakt von Thomas haben, haben wir alles von Grund auf entwickelt: Konzept, Struktur, Grafik und Inhalte: Alles brandneu. :) Natürlich mag es Kategorien geben, die einem bekannt vorkommen, wie Lyrics oder Pictures usw., eben solche Dinge die man halt von einer Fan Page erwartet.


Topic: Space Samurais - @d_h

[e] Unfortunately we don't have any fotos of the very early concerts yet. But we are going to continiue our search for pictures (and clear the rights) - and also for concert information, trying to complete the regarding categories by and by. But heres a picture of a concert in the 90s (1997: San Francisco). I don't know if this is the "Space Samurai"-Outfit, but it is not a siut. ;)

[d] Leider haben wir noch keine Fotos von den frühen Konzerten. Wir werden aber weitehin nach Bildern suchen (und deren Rechte abklären) - und auch nach Konzert Informationen, um die betreffenden Rubriken nach und nach zu vervolständigen. Aber iher ist ein Biuld von einem Konzert aus den 90ern (1997: San Francisco). Ich weiss nicht, ob es das Space Samurai-Outfit ist, aber auf jeden Fall sinds keine Anzüge ;)

Thank you very much.I don´t know anything about Covenant.If there would be a kind of jeopardy I would lose even the 1st silly question :tongue:

Cloths look a kind of SCFI-movie.

It was popular to wear in the 80 this kind of belts and I have the same looking belt in green color :tongue:

Maybe the picture is before Covenant-career.

Thats really cool to create a kind of biography/walking history. :perfekt:

Nope. That's not a Space Samurai suit. It's the later, much more comfortable Cyber-priest version... ;)

The Space Samurai outfits can be seen in live action in the booklet for "Dreams of a Cryotank". The odd shady shapes are us on stage. It was so difficult to get pictures because of the stroboscopes were the only lights so we filmed it on video and took pictures of the TV screen (this was way before the convenient era of digital video) for the booklet.
