Shortly after presenting the free download EP “A Savage Breath Within Our Lives” by the Cologne based Post-Punk band LOTUS FEED (take a look here), we’re happy to announce the long awaited debut “A Different Place” which will be released on 18th of March 2011.
Joy Division, The Cure and Bauhaus, that’s what most of the Post Punk and Guitar-Wave-Genre bands refer to. Pretty often it’s just a rehash of a sadly bygone era that has no rival even today.
“A Different Place”, the debut album of Colognes Darkrockers LOTUS FEED now are going to revive those good old times with a new livery. Several voices already say that some established 80′s bands would give everything to publish such a wonderful album nowadays.
It took fifteen years until finally the band came to light from a shadowy existence. Their first steps include being the support-act for bands like Charles De Goal, The Chameleons Vox and B-Movie. The current longplayer will do the rest for sure.
LOTUS FEEDs first work – an album with ten songs – contains all that is needed for a perfect album. Up-Tempo dance floor fillers like “Trouble” and “Room With A View” alternate with future wave-classics such as “Manner Of Painting” and epic tracks like “End Of Time”. The songs originate in one and a half decades of band history with a permanently changing lineup. But only the latest lineup, which consists of four guys from Cologne – was able to arrange and produce the songs as a coherent album. This may take fifteen years.
A pearl among Post-Punk-releases that should not be missing in no record cabinet. And we may hope for the next album to follow on the recent one a little faster.
