Why so?

sarramkrop 01.10.2009 04:26 AM

Because they cast a sinister spell on me and I can't stop playing their records. I think it must be the 60th time I've played this in a week.

Then Zola Jesus must be a strong witch. Around 150 plays in last 5 days, as my last.fm counter tells me.

Thanks to the 2 who posted these albums, i reccomend one and all have a listen.

Ive been enjoying Games for Slaves this week, its very very Dragnetty and definitely has the same subterranean and supernatural murky feeling as The Fall from that period. All the more apt that its in German. I might break my year long gig-going hiatus if they ever come to town, they sound like a scream.

Thanks for the upload, this rules!

This band have such great melodies. porkmarras, even though I think you're a decrepit twat, you have great taste in music haha.

greedrex 01.11.2009 05:41 PM

thx a lot for this

sarramkrop 01.11.2009 05:45 PM

it's much better than being one with shit taste in music, i can guarantee you.

Derek 01.11.2009 05:51 PM

True. Give me more recommendations.

MellySingsDoom 01.11.2009 05:56 PM

I can certainly hear the sound of early Fall seeping through this lot, as well as very early Joy Division and even a bit of Cabaret Voltaire too. Sounds very nice too, sayeth I.

greedrex 01.11.2009 05:58 PM

Thou are right.

Savage Clone 01.11.2009 05:58 PM

I have investigated these Digital Files per your recommendations, and have come out with full enjoyment. Very Joy Division-meets-Fall, but most enjoyable. I was expecting it to be more "raw" or something, but that is not a complaint. Great album!
Thanks.

I've never seen any evidence about them ever playing live.

then someone has to form a tribute group.
I imagine them looking like The Damned

sarramkrop 01.11.2009 07:39 PM

According to their myspace blog, two of them live in the states and go to Germany on holiday once every year, so the chances of seing them live are slim, I assume.

pokkeherrie 01.11.2009 07:49 PM

Yes, I read about their SF/Berlin/Aachen (I think?) diaspora... but maybe if their profile rises they'll start thinking about touring some day.

as far as im concerned, lets keep it going. I got invited to see Fischerspooner this week and im losing faith

pokkeherrie 01.11.2009 07:55 PM

Ouch... the worst I've been invited to in the past year or so were Pearl Jam and Kings of Leon.

sarramkrop 01.11.2009 07:56 PM

There was some speculation about their German nationality, to which one of them posted on their myspace blog about. Is the singer really a 40 year old man? He looks way younger than that.

I considered Fischerspooner because my mate wanted to go, but i was invited out on a date to see Kings of Leon recently and i said no, correctly.
