CONSISTENTLY INVENTIVE GERMANS
TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM IN JUNE
The very definition of nuance and haphazard invention, The Notwist return in June on Domino Recordings with The Devil, You + Me, their first new album in six years. Friend to Subtle and descendent of Sonic Youth, the German band, formed in 1989 outside Munich, has released some of the most highly regarded avant-rock releases in the past two decades including 2002's amazing Neon Golden. Their dizzying array of extracurricular projects includes a collaboration with Anticon hip-hoppers Themselves under the moniker 13 & God, Markus Acher's work in Lali Puna and Martin Gretschmann's electronica project Console.
The Notwist recorded portions of The Devil, You + Me with the Andromeda Mega Express Orchestra, a way out, 20+ classical orchestra that specializes in exciting and sometimes bizarre avant classic interpretations of modern jazz, which compliments perfectly the album's themes of love, loss, alienation, planetary alignment, the positive side to deception, death, refusal and the titular Devil.
