Lido, Berlin, Germany17th May 2009
Client + Special Guest
The band, founded as duo in 2002 is purposely acting enigmatic and hard-to-categorize. Initially Kate Holmes (keys, Ex-FRANZIER CHORUS, married to OASIS discoverer Allan McGee) and Sarah Blackwood (vocals, Ex-DUBSTAR) only appear with the aliases Client A and Client B. The reason: “We want to be judged by our music and not by any superficialities!” Their custom-made look reminds of uniforms and lies somewhere between the poles East European secretary/stewardess and dominatrix. Their sound is an electro variation, rooted in classical composing. Influenced by JOY DIVISION, DAVID BOWIE, KRAFTWERK, DAF, THE SMITHS and North England’s songwriting tradition, CLIENT is the perfect counterpart to the omnipresent happy commercial pop.

On Saturday, 21st February THUNDER will play at Bochum’s Matrix. We’re sorry to announce, THUNDER will break up after the summer. The following message from the band reached us today:Dear All
As we enter Thunder's 20th anniversary year, we've found ourselves becoming increasingly busy with our various activities outside of the band, and we've come to the conclusion that there are simply not enough hours in the day to fit it all in. Having discussed it at length, we've decided that this is a fitting time for us to hitch up our wagons and ride into the sunset.

Winter is the best season for ice flowers, then they’re feeling fine. That goes for both, the wonderful creations, frost paints on our windows, but most of all for Ria, an ice princess, performing magic with her extraordinary voice - very touching, a little sad, but always full of hopes. The single ‘Eisblumen’ enters the German singles chart on #5; a definite proof for the extraordinary talent of the young newcomer from Berlin. The music of EISBLUME is about loss and hanging on, about resignation and the clinging to the deep longing and the confidence of being more than a puppet on a string.- Details

It’s been a long time for the DOVES. All in all 4 years have passed, since their last studio album went straight to #1 of the UK albums chart. Now, they’re back to prove to fans and critics, their waiting for new material since February 2005 wasn’t in vain. The new album carries the title ‘Kingdom of Rust’ and is probably the most adventurous, most intimate, most driving, and most diverse album of the DOVES. In the blogosphere, heavy speculations began circulating about the return of the duo from Manchester, reaching their climax last week, when the band, during their first interview with the NME - that’s already calling ‘Kingdom of Rust’ one of the 10 most important albums of 2009 - talked about the last 18 months of their works in a studio, situated in an old farmhouse near Cheshire.- Details

A hybrid between departure and ass kick outrage and masterstroke, coupled with breaks, cutting off your oxygen supply, sharp-edged riffs with the combined rage from within. That’s expecting you on the self-titled debut of APRON. Where others just “write” crossover on the cover in big letters, APRON fill that catchword with sense, soul, and style-transcending songwriting! Instead of structuring their songs with common formulas, these lads are lateral thinkers and players. ‘apRon’ unfolds slowly, but unstoppable and reveals, song after song, new faces of its psychotic character. “Violence is our art!” is the band’s credo!- COPPELIUS - New album Tumult
