SHIRLEY HOLMES • Die Krone Der Erschöpfung (Coloured Vinyl) • LP

Rookie Records


Frenetic guitar music meets restless ideas! The outside world must then come inside, including all the ambivalences, temptations, stupidity, and beauty that waft around us.

The band likes to ignite the fuse of the conditions, from the programmatic lead single "Binichbinich" to the highly stylized Gerd Semmer cover "Der alte Krieg" and the vibrant "Konzoom," to the spontaneously improvised anthem to the "Wolf von Brandenburg."
Many styles, all goals, sparks in the darkness, and an audacious joy in the good cause. The album was recorded, among others, by Sylvia Massy, who also brought the Tool classic "Undertow" into the world.
