crisk . - "mach laut" Album - April 25th, 2008

About Me


Am 25. April 2008 erscheint das Debüt Album "mach laut" der Kölner Band crisk.
Hat die EP “das erste mal” von crisk. Appetit auf mehr gemacht? „machlaut“ wird nicht enttäuschen.
Mit dem jetzt erscheinenden Album machen es die vier Kölner den Journalisten, die ihnen einen bestimmten Stil zuordnen wollen noch schwieriger.
Per Definition sind crisk. eine Mischung aus verschiedensten Genres und werden mit so unterschiedlichen Künstlern verglichen, wie T.RAUMSCHMIERE, PZYCHOBITCH, CLIENT, FRONT 242, PRODIGY, DAFT PUNK, FISCHERSPOONER, MISS KITTEN oder ATARI TEENAGE RIOT.
Mit „machlaut“ machen die vier weiter damit, Industrial mit Pop-Elementen zu mischen oder ebenso EBM mit Punk Electro oder House mit Minimal Techno. Die frische, tanzbare elektronische Musik trifft dabei auf die kraftvolle Stimme der Frontfrau Chris Koch.
Electro Clash? Punk Pop? Techno Body Music? crisk. bietet mehr: brillant mixt crisk. die besten Elemente des 70er-Punk, die unverwechselbaren Melodien der 80er, die schnellen und harten Techno-Beats der 90er und den naiven „weniger ist mehr“-Stil des neuen Jahrtausends.
Zusätzlich gibt es wiederum zwei brilliante, neue Videos von Mark Feuerstake, welche beide Tracks featurn, die in Zusammenarbeit mit ihrem Idol Claus Larsen von Leaether Strip entstanden sind.
Taste crsik. at your own risk…

Crisk. Album "mach laut (turn it up!)" release date: April 25th, 2008
Did their exploding “das erste mal” mini-cd wet your appetite for more? “machlaut” will not deceive you! With this full length album the German crisk. quartet will give some more tough moments to music journalists who would still want to put a specific label on their music style.
crisk. is per definition a melting pot of genres and influences which therefore brought them the most diverse comparisons with artists in the likes of T. RAUMSCHMIERE, PZYCHOBITCH, CLIENT, FRONT 242, PRODIGY, DAFT PUNK, FISCHERSPOONER, MISS KITTEN, ATARI TEENAGE RIOT, etc.
“machlaut” goes even further by adding industrial and pop ingredients to their cocktail of powerful EBM, punk electro, groovy house and minimal techno. Fresh and floor-breaking electro that perfectly match with frontwoman Djane Chris Koch's harsh provocative German vocals.
Electro Clash? Punk Pop? Techno Body Music? crisk. is all of this and much more all at the same time, brilliantly putting together the best elements of the 70's provocative punk movement, the unmistakable hooks and melodies of the 80's, the fast and fat techno beats of the 90's and the naïve less is more touch of the new millennium.
Add the impressive imagery work of their much talented art director Mark Feuerstake who is in charge of the band's visual aspects and who here again signs two splendid videos both featuring collaborations with the band´s godfather Claus Larsen of LEAETHER STRIP.
