the antikaroshi

Bio:

.. We are a 3-piece from germoney called The Antikaroshi.
We named ourselves after a song 2 of us used to play with their old band.
The 3 characters involved are THEA (g,voc,keys) NTIK (bg,keys) and AROSHI (dr.) We played our first gig with a very cool band called DIARIO on Oct. the 12..th.. 2007 in Halle/Huehnermanhattan. They also helped us setting up the PA properly that night.
We recorded a 4 track demo in 2007 and soon Marco Malet became a friend (the first one!) of us on myspace if that matters to some of you.
We played more concerts- some of them were great and some were ok.

We recorded a bunch of new songs during 2008 and played the mighty South of Mainstream festival. After that Exile on mainstream rec. decided to put out our debut which was released on February 20, 2009.

Then there was some time of touring. Our first full tour was in june/july 2008 and lead us mostly through the czech republic as well as parts of germany. fun times!
In the beginning of 2009 we had the chance to be part of the blisstrain and get to know many of the new label colleagues, which was a great experience. After that, we were hitting the road again in summer of the same year with the fantastic Enablers. great guys, we would jump in the van at anytime again.
Before grabbing our stuff to travel one more time with the blisstrain in early 2010 we captured 10 new songs on tape for our current longplayer “per/son/alien” which will be released on eom this october. C.A. as well as the other participants involved (thanks prof and seidemann!) put a good piece of their heart and soul in it and we are a little bit proud of how it turned out in the end. In blind trust the visual aspect was again left to matthew irwin. he just has the right approach and ideas which leaves us totally satisfied (note to myself: next time seeing matt, giving him at least ten extra huggs for that…).
