On January 23rd (UK: January 26th), 2009, German alternative rockers (Melancholy, Dark Glam, …). THE PUSSYBATS are to release their long-awaited album "Famous Last Songs“ worldwide via Black Rain Records. It has been produced by Chai Deveraux (known as the guitarist of the industrial-glam-rock-band JESUS ON EXTASY) and Hahn&Hahn, a team which has already worked with acts like NENA, KIM WILDE and the FARMER BOYS.Founded in 2006, the band soon won one of Europe's biggest underground newcomer contests (Sonic Seducer „Battle Of The Bands“), played with the likes of THE 69 EYES, FRONT 242 or SUBWAY TO SALLY on numerous festivals and shows all over Europe and gathered a constantly growing fanbase. After the deal with Black Rain Records and the release of the first single "No Romeo“ in summer 2008, the four guys went straight into the studio to go for another milestone in their young musical career: recording a full-length album. In this effect a lot of heart, soul, sweat and tears have been put into every aspect of the production.
"The Most Beautiful Tales End Sadly“, for example, features not only a contrabass, but also a guest pianist and vocalist, LEANDRA. The songs as a whole are diverse – in between a goodbye kiss and a kick in the ass - but also follow a clear, straight line: emotions instead of academics, catchiness, rock'n'roll instead of arty gimmicks. Or, as the band themselves put it: "And even if we'd been struck by lightning the very next day, we'd have known that we'd put everything into that record we'd had to offer and left a legacy to be proud of! These could indeed be our 'Famous Last Songs'.“
