Another fine Saturday night line-up at Bei Roy with Italian psych-rockers Klaus & Can-D and Berlin shoegazer/post-punkers IHNMAIMS providing the sounds:
Klaus & Can-D are an Italian psychedelic trio that feature Piedmont’s local glories such as il Belva, drums (Hawaiian Baby Woodrose, Morning Telefilm), Alessio, guitar (Hawaiian Baby Woodrose, Mocker Monkeys, Morning Telefilm) and the recently berliner Fege, bass guitar (Queen Beee, The Hi Fevers, Fausto Maijstral and DuChamp as solo). K&C mix heavy psychedelia Oneida style, with Stoner, Dance, Kraut and good levels of surreal irony. Their main sources of inspiration are a semi-religious cult for Star Wars, Autonomous Astronauts Association, anal sex, hummus, early Jovanotti, D.A.T.U.R.A. and other crap. They has started their activity in Nov 08, release an album, “Buddha Buddha Hey” produced by Rico of FiscerPrais studio, played in Italy, Slovenia, Belgium and the Netherlands. K & C consider theirselves as a goddam comet, so that would be the ONLY chance in life to see them performing in Berlin! don’t miss them!
IHNMAIMS from Berlin stole their band name from a dystopian short story by American SF author Harlan Ellison.
Their musical influences include The Cure, My Bloody Valentine and The Velvet Underground. Lyrics go from nonsense to movie and book quotes to Philip K. Dick homages. They even wrote a song about that 80′s high school black comedy film “Heathers”. You know, the one where Winona Ryder and Christian Slater kill all the popular kids and make it look like suicides.
