"We welcome you, Endless Rüttenscheid", sing International Music in the title track of their third studio album, which will be released on September 6, 2024. The album title "Endless Rüttenscheid" is likely to be a real challenge for fans outside the German-speaking world. "Endless", of course, but then: a rolling R followed by an umlaut, a double T and a hard pronounced D at the end: Rüttenscheid. This is the name of the flourishing Essen district in the middle of Europe, which stands for lucrative growth in the Ruhr region, but also for the well-known gentrification problem. But as is usual with international music, such socio-political subjects mainly form spaces in which to fall in love, dream and part again, only to meet again one day. "Heart is the trump card", to quote the cult band TRIO, who have more than just the size of their line-up in common with International Music.
