Thanks so much for your rection 👍❤ I'm so glad you're as excited as I am. I got goosebumps when I saw your enthusiasm 😀. Best wishes 🎶🎶🎶 The band members except for the drummer are all lecturers at high-schools/universities in Germany/Austria: Jan Zehrfeld (Git), Josef Doblhofer (Git), Alexander von Hagke (Sax), Heiko Jung (Bass), Sebastian Lanser (Drums). Jan Zehrfeld is also the mastermind behind the polyrhythmic compositions and AFAIK also teaches composition. Saw them twice in in Small Club in Germany and I'm looking forward to seeing them again next year when they're back in town. Jan once told the story that he lets his guitar students play parts of their songs, polyrhythmic stuff against each other: "It's always a lot of fun. ... At least for me. 😀" I have no idea how many times I listened to the songs before I understood them. If I even heard and understood it at all. I keep discovering new things. Or maybe I just forgot and found them again. There is often so much in the songs that you can't remember everything and you keep discovering it again and again 😉. This is the kind of music I like: unpredictable, style mixtures and musical/technical brilliance. Music that isn't boring after two times listening. Some times that kind of music helps to make my brain stop thinking when it's full of troubles and problems. And I like musicians who don't take themselves too seriously. People who surprise you with musical twists just because they're crazy and funny. Like for example playing 'Take Five' in two different times all at once (Live at Theatron Munich 2013). The songs is more on the jazzy side, but I'm sure Matt will love the drumming, especially the solo. By the way Jillian is right in German the end is pronounced hard like the word 'at' (pantsɐʁbaˈlɛt). I like the imagery of the word: The light-footed dance of some tanks. And finally: White Christmas of course has vocals in it as well: Mattias Eklundh (Freak Kitchen) and Jen Majura (Evanescence).

Ahh, and a nice quote about the drummer from a concert review: "Lanser looks for the most unusual notes possible, such as quintuplets, arranges them at the most uneven intervals in the most unusual time signatures possible, such as 11/8, and plays the whole thing at the most unplayable tempo possible, let's say beyond 200 beats per minute. It goes without saying that Lanser also plays figures in 4/4 time at the same time to suggest to the audience that everything is very simple and danceable." 😀

Dissonance all over the place. There was no consistency in this song, but somehow it works. The sounds were 🔥 This is the third time I’ve listened, and I still can’t keep up with the changes! Great conversation today!!! 🎶 Cyd
