Anna (Bass), Daniel (Guitar, Vocals), Paul (Drums), Tobias (Guitar)
Influences
Daniel:
early influences were punk like NoFX, Lagwagon, No Use. Ataris got me into
playing the guitar, Jimmy Eat World got me into that emotional mid 90ies
stuff like Mineral, Christie Front Drive, Penfold, New End Original (Better
than this might still be one of the 5 best songs ever written) or Get Up
Kids. Appleseed Cast got me into longer songs, more epic, less pop, less
singing, like Mono, Red Sparowes, Explosions in the Sky, later I discovered
some hardcore stuff which still has to be passionate and melodic, like
Julia, La Quiete, Saddest Landscape, Isis and now it's a mixture of all mentioned
above (except for the punk part) and a lot of bands and people I got to know
through trading and shows, like Mr Willis of Ohio, Kenzari's Middle Kata,
Grave, Shovel... Let's Go!, Kitty Empire, Rabbit Theory, Petethepiratesquid
and loads of others
Tobi:
Offspring, Green Day, Blink 182, Sum 41, Paradise Lost, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Moonspell, Metallica, Rage against the Machine, Creed, Fury in the Slaughterhouse, Aerosmith, Guns N Roses, Jimmy Eat World, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Eric Clapton, Elliot Smith, Bon Jovi, Beatles, Marilyn Manson and many more, but i think all bands listed here had or still have a great impact on my play. Through the last years i had to add a few bands like Red Sparrows, Isis, Appleseed Cast, God is an Astronaut...
Anna: THEN: Guano Apes, Korn, Slipknot, Static-X, Deftones, A perfect circle
NOW: At the Drive-In, Glassjaw, AFI, Blackmail, The Mars Volta, Isis, Red Sparowes, Final Fantasy, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Maserati, Ostinato, The Cooper Temple Clause, Appleseed Cast, Thoughts Paint the Sky, Air, Dredg, Björk

aus dem studio, mit neuen songs im gepäck. ab ende dezember wird es dann eine split mit alia, jan.tenner und planke geben. das ganze erscheint dann über lala-schallplatten
als kleinen vorgeschmack haben wir euch den song "drachen steigen gehen" bei myspace hochgeladen.
The soundtrack for the wedding party of anger & gloom. Traktor from Sweden, which are not only highly considered in circles of connoisseurs because of their extraordinary live qualities, perfect their grim chaos-core on their first full length, entitled Lights. The typical Traktor sound from the early days with indigestive breaks and dissonant guitar riffs in the vein of famous San Diego bands like Drive Like Jehu or Swing Kids is getting enobled with dark & calm passages. Although the album was mastered in the much sought-after Tonteknik-Studio in Umeå, the regulary comparisons to Refused or early JR Ewing are less present, then genre bulks like Lack or Breach. Lights is an album designed for a cheerless winter, post-hardcore between aggression & depression.
diesen Samstag ist es Zeit für die erste "Forum2 Singer & Songwriter Night". 6 Singer/Songwriter bzw. Bands spielen für euch in einer der kuschligsten Locations in München, dem Forum2.
Für 7 Euro (mit Studentenausweis 5 Euro) könnt ihr ab 20:00 Uhr der Musik von On A Sunday, Andrea Schroeder, Sebastian Schwarzbach, So Far Nothing New, TheTAMED und Tuo lauschen.
Hi, the reverbnation tools are cool, by hitting play you hear the songs right away and with share you can place them on any kind of blog or platform, I like that, it is a big support for musicians, if you are with facebook then let's become friends there, it is much easier to communicate, have a great day.
