THE NOTWIST

In the organizer's words:

A new album by The Notwist is always an exciting undertaking. Their musical language is just as constant and resilient as the contexts for creativity are unpredictable and constantly changing.
For "Planet Zombie", the core trio of Markus and Micha Acher and Cico Beck took advantage of the diverse possibilities of joint songwriting, brought songs into the group and then arranged, rehearsed and recorded this material live in the studio. The result is an energetic album, completely in the 'here and now', with spectacular moments in which you can feel the magic bubbling in the dynamic between the Achers, Beck and their fellow musicians Theresa Loibl, Max Punktezahl, Karl Ivar Refseth and Andi Haberl.
Tracks like "Teeth" open quietly, while "X-Ray" bursts with collective energy. "Propeller" and "TheTurning" show the melodic and atmospheric range of the record.
The album was recorded in just one week at Import Export, a non-profit art space.
This creation is reflected in the sound: raw, lively and open to chance. Guest contributions from international musicians expand the sound and emphasize the cosmopolitan character.
Two cover versions are unusual for The Notwist: Neil Young's "Red Sun" and "How the Story Ends" by the folk-pop group Lovers. They fit perfectly into the narrative of the album, nestle in like old friends and show The Notwist as poetic interpreters.
In addition to the fresh material from "Planet Zombie", there will certainly be some classics and lesser-known songs from the extensive back catalog to listen to today.
