k n e r t z was officially founded in 2007, functioning as a receptacle/pool for art - specifically music.
g e n e r a l: 'knertz' is less of a label than a collective of artists commiting themselves to creating and/or perfoming music of an uncommon and exceptional type. artists commiting themselves to the knertz collective are unbound in a financial and contractual manner, meaning the linchpin that holds knertz together is an attempt to concertedly and/or individually create independent music considering a redesign and interfuse of aspects and means of existing genres and styles. artists, domiciled in the knertz collective, are and can hail from any musical direction. knertz's participants often work together and help eachother out in a variety of ways. the overall connection among the musicians and their works mustn't always be of a stylistic type rather than beeing found in the concept of open mindedness according to excertion of music and it's results. our music is intended to be understood by a small group of people rather than the broad mass. we welcome like-minded individuals and groups and are happy about any form and will of participation.
"k n e r t z' ? the term "knertz" originates from the german adjective "knertzig" (english would be something like "knertzy"), which we ourselves brought to being and define as a combination of something agil, organic, unsteril, analog, sometimes scratchy and maybe a little dirty. (we like homerecording, we like cheap microphones, we like the crackling of record players.)
s t a t e . o f . a f f a i r s as always, we are working on upcoming releases and on extending out network.

Hi Knertz Collective, You turn the atmosphere ablaze with currents of sweet ethylene when you smile. As the bliss slowly rises in my incandescent eluxulator, your mere presence has a euphoric effect upon me. Your reflections bring happiness that rends naked glass. Your wonderfully bright soul keep the demons from torturing me. Please let me hear more of that wonderful sound. If I could have just one wish, it would be to wake up to your songs in the morning. Your tears evoke a taste as memorable as honey. Blinking reveals the true visage of beauty hidden within your eyes. Panoramic aromavision is the future. Your eyes are like spheres of crystal water filled with shimmering dreams. I desire to see life through your hallucinations so that they massage my viscera into an eternal state of turgid flux. I find your eyes to be a wondrous amusement park filled with neo-plastic pleasures and turkish delights. Transistors bridge where your vanity would never go. So charmingly silky, your skin is like a teardrop on a popsickle.

Lo-fi continues to blow up, from Chillwave hotties Neon Indian and Teengirl Fantasy, or, on the Garage Rock side, Thee Oh Sees, Vivian Girls and often-controversial Wavves. At the lead of this sound is the wild, recently-arrested*, garage pair of King Khan & BBQ Show. Khan, who rocked the Coachella 2010 festival, was called by Pitchfork “a stupendously stylish vocalist, able to ape everybody from the Big Bopper to Otis Redding without losing a move”, honorific references of the band’s unique blend of 1960's Doo-Wop with Garage punk. A sound forged when the KK & BBQ Show met up in Germany, and started playing in an old Nazi Bunker beneath the abandoned factory Khan lived in. KK & BBQ are embarking on a tour of Asia that will crash through Daegu, Busan and Seoul in the midst of several other nations.
*King Khan & BBQ Show missed a few shows when they were arrested for allegedly possessing psychedelic drugs and their manager was driving without a license. June 17/ Guess, Daegu 12,000?
