plasticsoup

"You can't beat 2 guitars, bass, drums", Lou Reed once said. Based in Cologne, Germany, plasticsoup mixes these very ingredients, enriched with atmospheric effects and multi-layered vocals, to create their very own musical cocktail, which is sometimes dark, sometimes weird, sometimes cosy and warm. Psychedelic meets post-punk, country meets city, California meets Camden. Musically socialised in the Nineties, plasticsoup are influenced by many guitar and electronic bands of the decade, but at the same time make no secret of their affection for the Beatles, Bowie, The Clash and Joy Division. plasticsoup love loud riffs and driving beats. They love beautiful melodies, but they like to let themselves go even more. They love the truth, even if it is complicated.
