About Me


Our story Anything but yours started as a band in Regensburg in 2003 with such influences as Lack, Majority rule and Breach among many others.
One year later in 2004 it was the time for our first release then: ‘The doctrine story’ including 3 tracks which got great reviews at German magazines like Ox and several e-zines. It is a 100% DIY product limited to 100 copies.
After playing live shows together with Lack, Children of fall, Majority rule, Totalt jävla mörker, My unsaid everything, Eaves, The Smackdown, Lvmen, Six reasons to kill, Japanische Kampfhörspiele, I Pilot Daemon and Analena our next release was in planning besides some other bands we wanted to release through our own label named Heckspoilermusic.
In 2006 the track “Egomane” appeared on the ‘The dead pilots compilation’ (a compilation featuring JR Ewing, Khoma and side-projects of members from T(I)NC, Cult of luna and many others). In the same year two tracks were part of ‘Punk is Dad’. But more interesting seems the fact that the first full length with 11 tracks was released as digipack.
Now in summer 2007 a split with the lovely I Pilot Dæmon from Toulouse is going to be released in Germany through Heckspoilermusic and of course…France by Lacrymal Records.
We puzzled out our sound into a more rocking but also noisy direction - you may name bands like These arms are snakes as important influences now. On the other hand the music seems to be a bit slower than the old stuff and more calm and we know that listeners will have to take some time to get used to it. But they will love the songs then...
The EP was mastered by Pelle Henricsson in Sweden at the mighty Tonteknik Recording AB where great bands like Refused and many others recorded their stuff before. ANYTHING BUT YOURSOur releases"The Lighthouse Is In Our Back" split CD - 2007 (HECK007CD):1. You is you and you is you

11. It's so sad when you think of itThis longplayer was recorded in 2005 at X-Creation studios. It is all about the stupidity of mankind. It's about killing, lying, exploiting looked at from different perspectives and the fear of every single person of not being able to escape this situation due to the fact that it is pure convenience.
