Back catalogue: Post Rock/Experimental

Review: The evolution of German art outfit The Notwist is something to behold. Kicking off in 1989 with a metal album, between then and now they've refused to stay still, developing a sound that is truly their own. Gradually introducing electronics to the oeuvre, and discarding of the real heaviness, if you were going to label anything an amalgamation of sounds it's this - indie, electronica, jazz, downtempo, garage rock, lo fi pop.

All of that makes for a particularly formative musical experience on stage. Core members Cico Beck and the Acher brothers, Markus and Micha, consider records to be the starting point from which beautiful things happen live. Concerts are jam sessions that allow ideas to come to fruition, or develop almost by surprise. This is testament to that. Not a live record, but a recording of them reworking tracks from Vertigo Days and one from the soundtrack to One of Those Days in their own hilariously nicknamed studio.
