Das polnische Noiserock-Newwave-Postpunk-Trio Schröttersburg, das sich nach dem ehemaligen deutschsprachigen Namen seiner Heimatstadt Płock benannt hat, bringt ein Remix-Album zum Longplayer “Melancholia” heraus. Die Künstler Fleuve, Gaap Kvlt, Vilkduja, Tzii, Mirt, Piotr Dąbrowski und 1997ev bearbeiten insgesamt acht Tracks des Albums undgeben den Stücken eine Handschrift, die von Post Punk über trancige und dröhnende Electronica bis hin zu krautig-kosmischer Psychedelic und experimentellen Black Metal-Ansätze reicht. Das Album erscheint als CD bei Zoharum.
“Schrottersburg (city of Płock in German) is well known to post punk fans due to 3 well received albums and a no nonsense demo. What makes them different from the other bands (except for great music of course) is their ability to incorporate other musical genres while maintaining the new wave core. Here post punk meets kraut/space/psychedelic or even noise rock and shoegaze. Those broad interests pushed the band towards experiment where they invited their friends who reinterpreted the songs from “Melancholia” album, which resulted in „Melancholia. Dekonstrukcje”. New versions of songs range from trip hop, through traces of electro, industrial, experimental (think of shogaze black metal, seriously) psychedelia and mesmeric, trance inducing sounds. Not wanting to spoil the fun we’ll leave those aural pleasures for you to discover.” (Zoharum)
