专辑简介

We wanted it to sound a little like raw meat tastes, as singer/songwriter Norbert Wally puts it. The sound almost inevitably lets Tom Waits, Velvet Underground, Lampchop or the Pixies jump into ones mind and triggers of images of rolled cigarettes and a half full bottle of whiskey. Or rather a half empty bottle: For '15 for the jukebox is marked by the laconic melancholy in Norberts voice that is apt to drag you down while at the same time the words tell you to get up on your feet again. The dark side of solitary romance. Alternative Trio that combines straight rock songs, weird funky interludes and somehow psychotic moments (FALTER) High international level The new long-player even tops the prevoius releases. It is coined by the Base-specific melancholy but als surprises with pop-influences. Norbert Wally's outstanding voice and a healthy dosage of cynism are the main ingredients of Austria's best rockband. (CONCERTO) Had this album been produced in London, New York, Manchester, Seattle or at least Athens, Georgia, it would probably cause a stir. 60 minutes of fine songs, some of which are already known from the fabulous CD Toasted at TiB. The musicians combine precision with warmth, Wally's versatile voice finds the right mood for every story. (KLEINE ZEITUNG) in trying to define the base the austrian music critics come up with well established international comparisons. Among others the Violent Femmes, the Pixies, Lou Reed, Nick Cave, The Jesus Lizard, Nirwana, Roxy Music (DIE PRESSE)
