\u201cThe <\/em>\u2797<\/em> <\/strong>ROCK DOTS<\/strong> are highly necessary from my point of view – in a border area of music history and my own biography. After all, the \u00dc in my last name puts me under the spell of the Rock Dots or also R\u00f6ck D\u00f6ts, which came up in 1967. What bands like Blue \u00d6yster Cult or Mot\u00f6rhead have in common is that they turned a feature of German written language into radical chic. In typography, Rock Dots are the mark of Cain of the evil German. The fact that I\u2019m switching to English for this (and probably some following) has a conceptual reason here: that we\u2019re seeing Anglicization in general, culturally and economically. Every German-language music release is already interrelated to an overall Americanized environment.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I take the two points, the trema of one of the German umlauts that international heavy metal has claimed for itself, as loopholes leading into my own play with the English language. And, of course, a musical vocabulary that is never so clear genre-wise with me. The first album <\/em>\ud83c\udf5e<\/em> BROTESTSONGS<\/em><\/strong> was certainly something singer-songwriter-like with little excursions into electric guitar rock, Latin and a bit of jazz. <\/em>\u2797<\/em> ROCK DOTS<\/em><\/strong> has more electric guitar and synth sounds, with styles from the rock, jazz rock and electronica spectrum.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The level of lyrics and music videos for several songs again opens up several perspectives on the international motherland of pop. I\u2019m talking about pop culture in general as well as the horror genre in particular, or carrying on the voice of media theorist Marshall McLuhan, who was as profound as he was funny.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
