IGUANA - "Get The City Love You" out tomorrow!
Written by Daniela Vorndran Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:12
"Get The City Love You" is old school Desert Rock at its best – rough, psychedelic, melodious, and above all, multi faceted. Instrumental tracks, hypnotic noisy parts, straightfoward hits as well as laidback tunes – all 10 songs are different, however they follow the path of finest DesertSessions style without sticking to any stoner clichés. Somewhere between Doom, Psychedelic, Noise and with a touch of Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd as well as Saint Vitus, The Black Keys, Qotsa and Soundgarden. The album "Get The City Love You" is not supposed to be liked by anyone. This has never been the band's aim and neither will be. Rather, the title is dedicated to the feeling of having arrived anytime, anywhere, anyhow. Be it in the city of Moscow, Chemnitz or Erfurt, where the four musicians have ended up, or be it the good feeling of having found their way in a musical sense.

About Iguana
IGUANA performs a sincere, versatile, heavy and progressive kind of Fuzz Rock at its best. Although still being deep-seated with this genre they have moved on to develop their own vision of a deep, melodic and wistful Hard Rock music. It's somekind of Desert-Psychedelic-Doom-Blues-whatever in the broadest sense. However, the band is full of stylistic variability, packed with hooks as well as accompanied by crazily arranged instrumental gimmickries. The iguana is sick of trends, the mainstream and, above all, the dos and don'ts of Rock'n'Roll. It's addicted to music – nothing more and nothing less! An outcome made for the stage to unfold its unbridled power. That's what it has been and always will be!
Besides releasing music, IGUANA is dead keen on playing live! They have hit the stage of dozens of festivals and clubs together with bands such as Saint Vitus, Brant Bjork, Los Natas, The Atomic Bitchwax, Dozer, Colour Haze and many many ingenious acts more. Not just old hand doom legend Wino Weinrich knows that these boys are killer. Numerous club-shows in the Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, Sweden and of course the German scene's most appreciated live hot-spots proved that IGUANA embodies the neverending story of live celebrated love to chunky riffing, 'psychedelic' jamming and rythyms that are out-of-theordinary!
After successfully releasing their EP „B|L|U|E|S“ in Europe and the USA at the end of 2008, they have entered the "first league of heavy rockers of German origin" (generated-x). IGUANA's debut album, which is long overdue, is supposed to come out in march 2012. Those who've had the chance to snatch some tunes from the upcoming LP during a live performance know that the band is going to present again unconventional good music. Look forward to the sound of former desert sessions along with instrumental gimmickries and doom attacks yet charmingly and a little crazily wrapped up.
