Digital EP 'Nachtschattenblau' - first track 'Nachtschattenblau' out now!
Yeah yeah yeah! New songs from Vero & Band and the ladies from Kato Nigra.
After the 2018 album Wolken Zucker Himmel VERO is now releasing 5 more catchy tunes with power pop and German lyrics.
Nachtschattenblau, the opener, takes the listener to the world of elegant sixties, beehives, close-fitting evening dresses, hip suits and cool dimly lit bars. Right from the first chords the song creates a cosy but dark mysterious atmosphere which would not be out of place in an early Bond movie with Sean Connery.
Aufwind is a powerful, uncommonly well crafted rock ballad. It has none of the usual sound overload or the kind of kitsch you might normally associate with the term Rock Ballad.
Wer wir sind is an outtake of the solo debut album which will make you wonder why this hit wasn't included on the original release. This song has a fresh energy that in some parts conjures up visions of The Smiths, if The Smiths had a gorgeous German singer with a twinkle in her eye!
Vero recorded the songs Sand in Sicht and Krawattenmann with her all girl band Kato Nigra. These women of rock, will crash through your front door with their trashy garage punkrock charged with a touch of L7 style heavy riffs and halftime mosh pit interludes. The lyrics refer to drummer Katrin Einhorn's novels and deliver the soundtrack for upcoming movies!
All in all a a promising intermediate message from VERO and the label Sumo Rex, hoping there will soon be a new long player album and a tour!!!

New Ben Wood Inferno Single will be out in March 2020
Ben Wood Inferno is releasing their new single "Never Enough" very soon
Back from their mad marauding tour through Germany, Austria and Japan, by March 2020 the Ben Wood Inferno releases their new single "Never Enough (Herman)". Produced by the congenial Lucas Wiltschko ("Reverend Backflash", Albert Lee) its title track reveals to be a bittersweet rock'n'roll homage to the late singer and painter Herman Brood, accumulating all the trademark over the top-ranting and raving and proving once more that going too far is never far enough. A reelin' and rockin' howl of ferocious zest! T
he flipside of this very first BWI 7" vinyl turns out to be another undamped hit or miss bass guitar delivery, groovier and funkier than the band has ever sounded before. This non-album bonus track cites verse by verse a narrative clout in full puberty bravado and presents the band in one of their hottest moments where the needle rarely drops beneath total overload.
Press:
"Rock'n'Roll in its wildest and most untamed form." Nitestylez Magazine, 2019 "
Ben Wood incarnates cruelty and ferocity, screams, prays and curses. A mad man and creative musician who creates super-energetic ideas and multiple orgasmatrons." Underdog Fanzine, 2017
We are happy to announce the new Ben Wood Album
It's only July, but we are already looking forward to 13th of September 2019 and the new album by Ben Wood Inferno.
With their latest release "The Real Thing" we find the Ben Wood Inferno pirouetting at the apogee while at the same time staying sane inside insanity. Ten brandnew, dripped in curare tracks delivered in full-force scale rock'n'roll - groovier and funkier than the band has ever sounded before and topped with vocals brought to you by deafening explosions of temper.
With heartsore, love and sex as the gist of the lyrics you experience Ben Wood and this combatants spreading havoc like madly marauding Cupids. Musically the triumvirate focuses this time on the European phase of punk and rock'n'roll, venerating legends like The Damned, Jim Jones Revue or Herman Brood.
Autumn 2019 the band will present thier new album touring Germany, Austria and Japan.
16.11.2018 - First Véronique de la Chanson album "Wolken Zucker Himmel" out now

Wodoworot - The new Ivan Ivanovich & The Kreml Krauts album
(no English available, sorry) Die mitreißenden Fluten des "Wodoworot", des gigantischen Meeresstrudels, stehen im Zentrum des aktuellen Albums von Ivan Ivanovich & The Kreml Krauts. Glitten die Hörer gerade noch in den ruhigen Gewässern gewohnter Musik dahin, zieht der Malstrom sie nun erbarmungslos hinein in die abenteuerliche und wodkagetränkte Welt von Ivan und seinen Kreml Krauts.
Dort unten, in den Tiefen des Ozeans gibt es keine Grenzen: auf ihrem mittlerweile dritten Album "Wodoworot" vermischt die Band treibende Polkarhythmen mit Anleihen aus Ska, Punk, Metal, Popmusik und russischer Folklore zu einem einzigartigen musikalischen Erlebnis.
Wo deutsche und russische Kultur aufeinander treffen, brennen Ivan Ivanovich & The Kreml Krauts seit mittlerweile elf Jahren ein Feuerwerk ab. "Wodoworot" ist dabei ihre bisher vielseitigste Veröffentlichung und hält neben der unbedingten Aufforderung zu Tanz und Freude auch einige musikalische Überraschungen bereit.

New Ben Wood Inferno album will be out in October 2017!
Who else could fulfill Sumo Rex' motto "Excitement in Sight and Sound" better? If you have ever seen Ben Wood live, you'll know what we're talking about!
After 2015's staggering live album "flames baby flames !!" Ben Wood and his as unique as
infernal triumvirate release their breathtaking studio debut. Nine brandnew, ozone-depleting tunes
are raising the bar in a full blast of death mocking and devil defying sound. Launching from the
swamps of dripping daffy trashblues into the spheres of outerspace psychorock'n'roll explosions we
testify a song collection of an undiscovered garagerock'n'roll genre at its best - inspired by the likes
of Bo Diddley, The Cramps, Jon Spencer and a large variety of winding up the smart set.

Out since June, 3rd 2016: KORNELIUS FLOWERS "Vintage Hedonist"
Die Lässigkeit eines Tom Petty; die wilde und
programmatisch-hedonistische Art, derer sich bereits die frühen Kinks, oder um es noch deutlicher zu machen: The Sonics bedienten; ein bisschen später Bob Dylan und die morbid-balladesken Momente, die uns schon ein Nick Cave schenkte.
Ohrenzauber. Wegesrandgeschichten. Gefühl. Gut und Böse. Mitunter auch schlichter akustischer Sonnenschein – so wie ein guter, mit Hitpotenzial ausgestalteter Refrain ihn nun mal mit sich bringt. Ein Potpourri des guten Geschmacks, eine Bestandsaufnahme gelebten Rock’n’Rolls, so wie man sie dieser Tage und derart sorgsam und doch roh und wild dargeboten nur höchst selten findet. All das spiegelt sich auf Vintage Hedonist auch in den glanzvoll lyrischen Texten der Songs wieder.
Out since July, 15th 2016: IVAN IVANOVICH & THE KREML KRAUTS "Katschigari"
"Katschigari" heißt das zweite Studioalbum der
Trierer Band Ivan Ivanovich & The Kreml Krauts.
Der russische Titel, der sich auf deutsch mit "die Heizer" übersetzen lässt,
gibt dabei die Schlagrichtung vor. Seit 2007 tourt die Band durch Deutschland und
das europäische Umland und schafft es dabei mühelos, das Publikum zum Kochen zu bringen.
Die einzigartige Mischung aus Polka, Punk und russischer Folklore bringt selbst eingesessene Vertreter der Thekenkultur dazu, sich aufs Tanzparkett zu wagen. Dass diese Tanzfläche auch der eigene Küchenfußboden sein kann, beweist die Gruppe auf „Katschigari“ mit Polkakrachern wie "Ech, gari", "Tanzuj" oder "Pa darogam". Neben purer Freude am Leben bietet das Album mit stimmungsvollen Stücken wie "Sljozny wesny" und "Prasnulsja" auch einen Einblick in die Schwermütigkeit und die Melancholie der russischen Seele.
