Installing A New Boat Floor

Music: 206 - Republic of hoarseness

cover

to determine your location, you can access from time to time to music that has otherwise not on the radar. I take time together some attributes that came to me in researching the " Republic of hoarseness " to mind:

  • Indie-Wave-Post Punk
  • in-your-face sound
  • Intelligent and disturbing German lyrics
  • pop appeal
  • Gang Of Four
  • Early Fehlfarben
  • Steve Albini
  • pre-NDW
  • agitational sect
  • somewhere between Joy Division, The Wipers, Dead Boys, Bowie and down
  • interface of Independent Sound to late-70s punk from Germany
  • Intelligent, unusual minimalism

Oh, if we do not ministers, should so indicate the sources: Amazon , Music Venue and Plastic Bomb .

to satisfy the texts claim an intellectual, to others to decide. I encounter a few clever lines of text but also agitational silliness. Musically, the trio sounds a bit more mature. Since fairly polished post-punk meets indie rock in places and that has really perky and fresh. If the singers do not sound so hoarse and forced you do not stand out too much with the provocation would, my verdict was probably more enthusiastic. Fans of German-language music should lend the band but still plays an ear.

The band 206 is made in the region of Halle an der Saale, and after a slog through 70 clubs publish it now "Republic of hoarseness" her debut album. This was produced by Tobias Levin, who also attacked Kant, Tocotronic and Gisbert Knyphausen to under the arms.
