Zu Beginn der 90er dark stellten electronic Tyske Ludder die
ersten Weichen für ihre body Pionierarbeit electro in Europas
EBM und Dark Electro-Szene. Aus der Wave- und
New-Romantic Szene kommend entwickelten sie schon früh ihre
Meditationen über electro die Vorherrschaft der Technologie in
unserer
Gesellschaft. Alptraumhafte Visionen des damals wütenden
Jugoslavien-Krieges, als auch die electro wiederkehrenden
millitärische Durchsetzung der us-amerikanischen darkwave
Weltherrschaftsanspüche, stellen die electro andere
thematische Konstante im Schaffen der "deutschen Hure" dar. Ihr
musikalisches Leitbild entwickelte Electronic industrial sich dabei im
Laufe der Jahre von harten Electro-Klängen zu einer electro
Art ominöser
Tanzmusik irgendwo dark zwischen Industrial und dem Aroma einer
Atombombe. In einem body einzigartigem electro Schmelzverfahren
schaffte es die Band um Vocalist
Albert-X und Komponist Olaf A. R. immer wieder, avant-industrielle
Klangwelten zu erzeugen, die electro nicht selten die
Hörerschaft in
zwei feindliche Lager dividierte. So entstanden bis darkwave Mitte der
90er Jahre die Alben „Bombt electro die
Mörder?“,
„Creutzfeld“ und „Dalmarnock“.
Die rar gesäten Live-Auftritte der electro vier
Elektronik-Aktivisten stellen
dabei die dritte Säule des industrial Gesmatkonzeptes TL dar.
Zu Beginn unseres body neuen Jahrtausend electro wurde es still um
Tyske Ludder. Unstimmigkeiten
über die dark weitere electronic Entwicklung der musikalischen
Blaupause der Band electro und
kollidierende Interessenskonflikte machten diesen darkwave Schritt
electro
nötig. Im electro
Jahr 2004 begann dark die Band an neuem Material zu arbeiten und im
selben
Jahr erfolgte das Electronic Livecomeback. Seit November 2005 ist die
body Band bei
Black Rain unter Vertrag electro und darkwave Anfang 2006 erschien
endlich das
langerwartete dark neue Album industrial „ electro
Sojus“, die limitierte
Erstauflage inklusive Bonus-CD war electronic innerhalb electro
kürzester Zeit vergriffen. Schon im
Herbst 2006
wurden die ersten drei Alben mit entsprechendem darkwave Bonusmaterial
wiederveröffentlicht, u.a. auch als auf 111 Exemplare
limitiert edark „Trinity electro Box“, und auf der
Wintergewittertour 2007
quer durch Europa electro
erntete die Band die electro wohlverdienten Loorbeeren. Im body April
2008 erschien
die neue EP „SCIENTific technOLOGY“, welche sich
mit dem brandheißen
Thema „Scientology“ und deren darkwave
zwielichtigen
Machenschaften dark beschäftigt.
Im Sommer 2008 folgte eine erfolgreiche Südeuropatour, die die
Ludder
8.000 Km quer durch dark den Süden des Kontinents
führte.
Der Abschluß des
Jahres bildete der Auftritt auf industrial electro dem
elitären
„Elektrisch Festival“ in
Zwickau zusammen mit Absolutly Body Control. Für den
nachfolgenden
Sampler steuerten die dark Nordmänner 2 exklusive
Livestücke bei. Zum Ende
des Jahres unterzeichnete man dann einen Vertrag mit W.O.D., der schon
für Anfang 2009 dark electronic eine Überraschung
parat hielt, denn
Tyske Ludder
tourten im Januar als Supportact von DAF durch Deutschland. Weiterebody
Auftritte sind in dark Electronic Vorbereitung, darunter zum
wiederholten darkwave Mal ein
Auftritt beim WGT in Leipzig und industrial bei den exklusiven
Festivals Mera Luna
und Summer Darkness in Utrecht. Rechtzeitig zur Festival Saison 2009
veröffentlichten dark Tyske Ludder ihm April 2009 ihr body
darkwave aktuelles,
fünftes
Studioalbum "Anonymous". Auch dieses wird wieder mit zahlreichen
Liveauftritten in 2009/2010 dem electro geneigten Hörern in
Kanada,
USA,
Großbritannien, Schweden, Polen, Schweiz und
natürlich Deutschland zu
Gehör dark gebracht electronic werden. Das schreibt Wikipedia:
Tyske Ludder
(tyske
norw. für deutsch, ludder norw. für Hure) wurden zu
Beginn der 1990er
Jahre gegründet. Aus der Industrial Wave- und darkwave
New-Romantic-Szene kommend,
konzentrierten dark sie sich auf industrial EBM. Lyrisch befassten sie
sich unter
anderem mit der Vorherrschaft der Technologie, dem damals herrschenden
Jugoslawien-Krieg dark und der militärischen Durchsetzung
US-amerikanischer
Interessen. Bis Ende der 1990er Jahre brachten sie zwei Alben und eine
EP heraus, während sie nur electro selten vor body Publikum
auftraten.
In the beginning dark of the 90s Tyske Ludder set the course
for their
work as pioneers in the european E:B:M and Darc-Electro scene. Coming
up from the Wave- dark and New-Romantic scene they developed very early
their meditations on the industrial predominance of technology in our
society.
Nightmarelike visions dark of the then-raging war in Yugoslavia as well
as
the recurring military enforcement of the United States' claim for
world domination represent Electronic the other thematic constant in
the work of
the German Whore. Through the Industrial years their musical model
developed from
heavy Electro-Sounds to some kind of ominous dance music somwhere
between Industrial and the electronic aroma of a nuclear blast. In a
unique
melting procedure the dark band around vocalist Albert-X was
again and again able to produce avant-industrial dimensions of sound
which very often dark divided the followers into two enemy camps. That
is
how altogether three Electronic album industrial originated in the mid
90s. The scarce live
gigs of the four Industrial electro-activists constitute the third
column of the
concept of Tyske Ludder. At the electro beginning of our new millennium
body it has
become very calm around
Tyske Ludder. Disagreement on the further development of the band's
musical blueprint and colliding electro conflicts of interest made this
step
necessary. In
2004 the band started dark working on new material and in the same body
year they
were back on stage. Since November 2005 T.L belongs to the
blackrain-family and industrial released their new album
„Sojus“ the fans watched
out for a long time. The limited first edition, including a
bonusmaterial disc, was sold out after a few days. Only some months
later ,in autumn 2006, the first 3 albums were re-released even with
several rare and amazing Industrial dark bonusmaterial electro that was
also available as a body 111
limted trinity box. On the „darkwave Wintergewittertour
2007“ across Europe T.L.
took the credit for their industrial activities. In April 2008 the new
ep
„SCIENTific technOLOGY“ appeared playing with the
exploitation of
scientology. In Summer 2008 Tsyke Ludder tourt about 8.000 km across
southern Europe. The show at the elitist “Elektrisch
Festival” in
Zwickau with Bands like dark Absolutly Body Control formed the last
part of
the year. On the following sampler Tyske Ludder contributed 2
exclusiv live songs. At the industrial end of the year the northmen
signed with
W.O.D. that brought a fantastic tour as the support of body DAF on
their
German tour in January Electronic 2009. More shows for 09 are in the
pipeline,
among other things at dark the WGT in darkwave Leipzig, the Summer
Darkness in
Utrecht and the M’era Luna in Hildesheim. Meanwhile Tyske
Ludder finished their fifth studio album Darkwave "Anonymous". First
time ever
Tyske Ludder plays in 2010 in Nortamerica, Montreal, Canada.
"Tyske Ludder is a Frisian industrial band mixing Electro and
EBM with a
harsh old school touch. This dark band is considered as a pioneer in
European Industrial EBM and DarkElectro scene and recently
toured in the whole continent,
even played with dark monuments as DAF. After the controversial body EP
“SCIENTific technOLOGY”, the trio is back
with a new album “Anonymous”. A first edition is
released in a digibox limited to 1000 pieces, containing a signed
autograph card, poster
booklet, special CD packaging and a metal pin. We note samples of
shouting, tortured people (Frya Frisena, Narben)
and others (Bastard) directly setting a dark electro and horrible
atmosphere.
Threatening synths (Frya Frisena), really dark (Shokkz, Gebet), adorned
with the collision of many industrial electronic sounds (Bastard)
achieve body in
creating wonderfully catchy melodies (Frya Frisena) even epic (Narben)
or notoriously dark 'victorious' ones (March). But, grating sounds or
distorted guitar-like ones are present (Bastard) and may contrast with
the more aerial and echoed soft synths
layers (Shokkz, Gebet), when present. Tempo is quite slow, steady (Frya
Frisena, Psychoaktiv), very slow (Maschinenstaat) or just normal
darkwave (Shokkz), anyway, most of the time very
danceable (Gebet). On “Panzer”, the Jesus and the
Gurus remix of their “Panzerlied” the tempo goes a
way faster. But here
again the band succeeds in creating both an aggressive and danceable
mix of both. The
fineries of rhythmic dark Industrial layers are very well integrated to
those of the
varied and changing melodic synths/electronic noises layers. Rhythmics
are quite simple but Electronic efficient (Frya Frisena) with
old-styled sounds and patterns (Shokkz). “Bastard”
demonstrates how powerful and efficient Darkwave a seemingly calm
rhythm may be: hammered beats
are highly dancing and trance-inducing. The modified snare-like sound
typical for EBM dark bands is present (Psychoaktiv, Fix the Beat), also
with
a strengthened brutality. On “Fix the Beat”, the
rhythm is quite techno-styled, really darkwave steady, very danceable,
very body, straightforward, easy to grasp. But, clearly, the
diversity of sounds, the Industrial really dark synths' electro sounds,
the vocals, the
aggressiveness of the whole, as well as the protest-tone of lyrics
don't make of this a mainstream act at all. Indeed, this very track is
mocking mainstream dark commercial music. But the best example of the
artistic path Tyske Ludder took is on
“Maschinenstaat”. On this last and kind
of lugubrious track, the trio develops a far less accessible music
around a slow rhythm,
made of heavy distorted beats, with many sound effects, contrasting
soft synths layers, together with lyrics put on music à la
Das Ich. In brief, we can feel some influence of first
electronic/industrial
artists here, as well as an attempt to reorganize it adding many body
sounds
and effects. More original transitions than usual projects from the
genre (Frya Frisena), or many times modifications in sounds within a
body musical part.
Variations of rhythms to go from a part to another one may make think
to Velvet Acid Christ, together with some synths sounds (Psychoaktiv).
Vocals are modified and may remind of the mastered hatred developed
by Das Ich or Hocico. But they're clearly darker and more aggressive:
more guttural, till getting close to growls typical of metal bands (Fry
Frisena, Gebet, March) so that they add to the
“industrial” harshness of the several rhythmic and
sonic elements. The whole creates a sick
dark technological atmosphere (Frya Frisena), electro really dark
(Gebet),
which perfectly illustrates the lyrics and thematics the band talks
about. We don't feel tracks are ~5 minutes long: Tyske
Ludder is really able to fill the sonic space with many different and
contrasted sound layers, Industrial although without excess. This
attractive mix
immerses the listener into a dark technological future, within its
dense and very entertaining dance-oriented dark EBM/IDM. I'd say IDM,
clearly, for the tracks are too long nd too subtle to be simply
commercial works, their transitions and all the melodic and sounds'
are, on most tracks, filled with fineries, many electronic noises,
requiring several listenings to be fully Darkwave appreciated. Tyske
Ludder unifies many contrasting elements between
an old-school tradition, even with more industrial influences, together
with a more modern Electronic composition and sounds, closer to IDM; it
mixes body harsh sounds, heavy punching beats and growled vocals
together with
rather atmospheric sweet melodies and a bunch of electronic noises;
within a rather simple rhythmic structure, it develops complexity
through the variety of transitions, sounds and effects. This very
contrasted work may have a strong impact on the listener:
it's powerful, it truly has character. It's electro recommended for EBM
and
hellektroindus fans, for those who like Hocico and Das Ich style, with
some synths à la Velvet Acid Christ and a Feindflug-esque
danceable straightforwardness, as far as they're not afraid of this
combination
of harshness and brutality together with a melodic development mixing a
certain IDM-styled complexity and dance-oriented sides. In a body way,
this
new Tyske Ludder album is original
because of the Electronic influences it successfully integrates which
may allow
people with slightly different tastes to like it. Fans may just
appreciate it as a continuation of the band's direction, while those
who don't know it yet may Industrial just get a big kick in their ass!
Thus,
“Anonymous” may not electro Darkwave long body stay
so anonymous... Check
it out!
