Hi,
tomorrow we will complete our spring concerts, so for everyone who missed the new set
….last chance.
We share the stage with our friends the stoner rockers “Petrol Haze” and our rehearsel room neighbours and long time fellas “The Vascotines”.
…and it´s Klausns and my birthday
As you may have noticed we’ve been working on a new record. Now, it’s going to be released one way or the other, physical and digital.
The thing is we put a lot of thought into how this release should and could look like. Other bands already tried a lot and there’s a lot of creative possibilities. Vinyl may come with a download code to get the album for your portable devices or to put them on CD for your car stereo. There may be a download only version for those who don’t own a record player or simply don’t want to have a physical record. Maybe some of you only want a single song – iTunes may serve you well in that case. There is a lot of fuzz going on about digital distribution but digital-only lacks any benefit like a cover, the booklet, the tactile experience. Imagine you go to a concert and want to buy a record because it was a cool gig. Though, all you get is some kind of receipt with a string of numbers and symbols for a download – no touchy-feely stuff, nothing to look at, nothing of weight, no souvenir qualities. We don’t feel too comfortable with this idea.
So, questions of monetary value aside, consider this a poll: With music – bands you like to listen to or you’d like to support – how would you want a record (a product) to look and feel like? What would you be willing to trade in for? What sort of additional benefit do you wish for to complete your experience?
Feel free to add to our comments or to tell us on the social networks – we’re happy about any feedback!
Hello folks!
I have the honor to start this very special post. Special it is, because it will be the first entry of our recording diary for the next two weeks. We pulled our shit together (both literally and figuratively) to focus on recording our latest workings. Check back on this post because it’s going to be updated for your voyeuristic pleasure. Big thanks to our best boy Neonhellner who will supply us with most of the images below.
Long story short, have a picture to wet your interest:
We proudly present a concert with the new hot shit from Berlin “Mr.Wu”
Let´s see what we can get!
The first of three concerts we´re doing in spring 2012, this one with the marvellous “Clains”.
Hi Folks, we got some new pics online, feel free to grub around in our gallery.
Ich weiß, ich weiß,
Sommerpausen sind was für Pensionisten, sorry wir haben es echt gebraucht. Doch es geht wieder los, wir sind wieder da, stürzen uns auf neues Material, und freuen uns auf die Konzerte 2012.
cheers Robinson
First time we are sharing the stage with the marvellous “Sister Jones”.
cheers
Finally, here is the release of our newest baby High Waters:
LyricsPlanks are groaning, whipping waves of grief
Thunder and blood, life is brief
Challenge the nameless, turn into the wind
Swallow the pride, ocean of sin
This hull is eager its duties to perform
And ride upon the storm
Sea shall grant new hope
Sleep bring dreams of home
The sight of the ocean makes me lose my heart
Whether I return or I depart
This land’s no haven even though they say
I’d rather drown than join this fray
Sea shall grant new hope
Sleep bring dreams of home
Let us sing
La la la la la la la la la la
Sea shall grant new hope
Sleep bring dreams of home
