KAROSHI LOVERS "LIVE TO WORK - WORK TO DIE" GIRLIES AND T-SHIRTS
Rock'n'roll revolution? The revolution of the new economy?
Revolutionary rise and fall of the western democracy? No matter which
one: the revolution is over - and it's time for karoshi.
Karoshi Lovers was formed in the spring of 2007 when Ms. Stress (vocals, keyboards), Kid Karoshi (guitar, vocals) and Joy-R (drums) wanted to create a new concept to the overwhelming pop markets. Ms. Stress ran into the Japanese term "karoshi" by accident on the internet. The word means "sudden death from overwork". The trio arrived at the same conclusion that Karoshi sums up the western world around us: fast working life and death at a young age. The group's unique sound is the result of the trio line-up - sometimes less is more, like the old phrase says.
At the beginning of February 2008 Karoshi Lovers released debut album The Revolution Is Over. The album is melodic, theatrical and even rowdy aggregate where Ms. Stress' vocal harmonies meet Kid Karoshi's punk riffs and black humor connects with the dance rhythms. The ballads are dark and hypnotic with the feel of ash floating above the songs.
Karoshi Lovers toured Finland through the summer of 2008: the gigs varied from the big festival shows to the smaller and more intimate acoustic performances.
In December the trio released a Christmas single "Karoshi Christmas" in the internet. The song introduces some new Karoshi sound which will continue improving since the band is currently writing new material to their forthcoming second album that is due out in the fall of 2009. However, the Lovers don't forget their fans while writing the future Karoshi classics, they will do gigs too.
