Being the last offshoot of the French Revolution and the Ages of Enlightment
THE ZONNHAIDER’S CLUB goes its most sensible step: retreat!
“Lay down the illusion of a representative majority!” (Christopher Schön, on the 12thof June, 1983)
“Cosmopolitans, lay down the heavy coat of universalism, it doesn’t fit the world and it is itchy like hell!” (Martin Ketelhut, on the 5th of June, 1985)
In its non-representative function the ZONNHAIDER’S CLUB is mostly exercising a nomadic tradition of the mosaic.
Not holding to only one
theme, form or style, THE ZONNHAIDER’S CLUB is like an amoeba.
It invites to get sucked in from all around, to become stranger and doing
so, to honour an everlasting reformation. In the permanent process of
becoming, for THE ZONNHAIDER’S CLUB there is nothing else to do but
stepping aside from identity.
Some voices about 'The Forthcoming Spring':
"One of the surprises of 2007. The Forthcoming Spring of The Zonnhaider..s Club is like a dreary trip in the night train from Cologne to Berlin, like an endless unsecured jump from the sky, a departure of dusty trains of thought. [...] The debut of The Zonnhaider’s Club reaches immensely for his victims, carefully, but unerringly."
Alternative Nation – 8/10 points
„Here comes VERY difficult material!“
Klangschau – 8/10 points
"The Forthcoming Spring spins tales of the standstill of time. This music retells the world again.[...] Slow motion studies of the world. A loud whisper."
Plattentests – 7/10 points
"The Zonnhaiders Club sounds a bit like The Album Leaf, The Doors and Savoy Grand, and those aren't the worst references. Melancholic, sad and yet sanguine - the slowmotion walks so slowly that you can be sure not to miss something."
Noisy Neighbours - 12/15 points
„The first official release on Discorporate Records proves, that it's all about great great music, that delivers a deep insight. So amazingly deep, that it sometimes could be oppressive. The black-white cover announces a forthcoming spring and the music of Christopher Schön and Martin Ketelhut invites you to an anachronistic journey through this and another world. Richly orchestrated and excellently mixed you'll get driven through timbres, who after repeated listens unfold much more nuances, than the cover lets suppose. Indietronic melancholic waterways for hushed hours of inwardness."
