Show review // TRUST
Article published on Fri Feb 1, 2013 by Eden
As I walk into Berghain, the scene is buzzing as usual. For a Tuesday night the place is quite busy; crowded with people anticipating the night's current guest - Canadian synthpop band, Trust. The band is made up of Robert Alfons, and Maya Postepski (who is also a member of Toronto-based duo, Austra, but didn't seem to be in attendance.)>>follow the article
Amatorski in Berghain Kantine Saturday and we've got free tickets
Article published on Fri Feb 1, 2013 by indieberlin.de
Amatorksi, the brilliant Belgian indiemelancholics, are in Berghain Kantine tomorrow and we've got free tickets to give away - write to win@indieberlin.de and tell us why...
Amatorski are Belgian, they were founded three years ago. They play this low fidelity melancholic style which reminds of Portishead or Sigur Ros, but at the same time does not. They have a distinct character, a strong one, and are going places.

indieberlin live review - Rover played last week in the Ramones Museum in Mitte
Article published on Sun Jan 27, 2013 by indieberlin.de
The Ramones Museum Berlin is a bizarre place. The coffee shop area has the air of a Starbuck's and the museum itself is a series of glass cabinets displaying photos, memorabilia and texts narrating the history of the band, not unlike any History Museum would display the artisanry pieces of an extinct tribe. You can't help wondering what a twenty year old Joey Ramone would have done with all that glass.>>follow the article

Awayland by Villagers
indieberlin album review - Awaylands by Irish band Villagers
Article published on Sat Jan 26, 2013 by indieberlin.de
Somewhere between the band’s vision and our headphones - amongst the beautiful and grand and complex and intriguing palette of sounds - something is lost. Over 11 songs we get several great moments - ‘The Bell’ cleverly builds and builds, holding the tension, until the final wordless vocal line; ‘My Lighthouse’, the album’s opener, is a gorgeous, three-minute hymn of finger-picked acoustic guitar - but they are hidden amongst a lot of misdirected sound and emotion. Villagers have pushed themselves far on this record, which is great. But they lacked the ability to reign themselves in when necessary, to bring the album together as one piece, sonically and thematically. This is a confusing album. It’s overly ambitious - and that’s its downfall. >>follow the article
Trixie Trainwreck
Review - Trixie Trainwreck Release Party for Hard Workin' Girl in Bassy last Friday
Article published on Fri Jan 25, 2013 by indieberlin.de
Trixie’s voice has grown up, found itself and grown rich. At times a throaty growl, at times a honeyed yowl, she shows that she’s bestrode a thousand stages in a thousand bars. She’s a thoroughly seasoned performer, completely comfortable up on stage and carrying the audience effortlessly with her, she stomps away at the boom-tish-boom-tish rhythm of the kick and the hat and pounds her guitar gutsily along, setting up a rolling beat for herself to sing her songs of lonesome towns and dustclouds over.>>follow the article
