After their DAC (German Alternative Charts) top five double album "Anthology 1992-2010" !distain are now releasing their sixth studio album "on / off".
The record, produced by Remi Janotta (Ex-Psyche), contains ten new compositions. The album title is meant as an expression of everyday life characterized by contrasts: life and death, peace/war, love/hate, happiness/unhappiness, light/dark, on/off etc.
All the greatest possible differences are in reality but one, just like the two sides of a coin. The combination of these opposites is the origin of all being, and especially to promote the digital world - the dual system.
Since their establishment in 1992 !distain are merging these seemingly irreconcilable opposites in their music. Just like the suicide-descriptive "Dance In Heaven”, which was embedded by a dreamy pop arrangement, as well as their bitter reckoning with the Catholic Church in 2004, titled "Sex'n'Cross", which came along as a dancefloor pop track.
Radical lyrics and extremely catchy pop melodies. In 2011 !distain are still standing for seemingly irreconcilable opposites, but at the same time going far beyond that. The two containing versions of "mein weg" could not be contradictory. Radio versus club, “on” versus “off”…
"...Songs wie der richtig starke Opener "The 6th Floor", "My God", "Second Coming" und vor allem die Nummer mit der extravaganten ex Dual Density Sängerin Tess Fries, "What Do You Want From Me?" lassen die Herzen der (Elektropop-)Fans mit Sicherheit und zurecht höher schlagen." (Re-Flexion)
"... Mit dem neuen Album haben sie wieder eine richtig schwungvolle Mischung zusammengestellt. Direkt der Anfangstitel "the 6th Floor" ist ein richtiger Ohrwurm umd man fragt sich sofort, was mag auf dieser 6ten Etage wohl sein??" (Gothic-Family)
!distain - why (bootlicking hypocrites)
