MLE[e] - A wall
Here they stand, this band, and they are going to become a wall. A wall as a symbol for a unit. A wall as a symbol for the inner walls, which we all have to tear down again and again. A wall as a quotation out of a song - Static.
After one year in this formation we have to determine that we have done it all in the correct way. We´ve decided to record a promotional e.p. under the best conditions possible. Genuine and live-like - that was how we wanted it to sound. And it worked out: We recorded all of the instruments in the same room at the same time, only adding a few overdubs and vocals later.
`Walls And Other Lies´ is the title of this e.p., showing a cross section of our musical output of the last year. The development from a restart after a long band experience together (in a slightly different formation) to what we are now: Four individuals, sharing their love of music and a deep friendship. Searching for the feeling that our music should make you feel, without any compromises.
The lyrics of our songs evolve mostly around being a human being, and the desires and the diversity (more real than the dualism) which some people would like to have to see their lives in an easier way. They are also about having a wrong self-image, inner decisive battles and moved and moving moments in life.
To define our music it would need more than words. We keep saying that we play some Indie/Alternative Rock, but what does that mean anyway? We play with two electric guitars, bass and drums. Sometimes we use a synthesizer. We change between ecstatic noise and fragile moments. We like strong and hooky melodies. We always need energy and sphere in a song. We want to touch our listeners hearts and create feelings. Emotion is always stronger than a memory.
With a lot of idealism and hope MLE[e] will hit the stages of this world. Maybe with a record contract and an album in the stores, soon?
