synth-pop and rock n’roll are in fact pretty good bed-fellows. when mittekill are behind the controls the pop rocks and the rock pops and yes you guessed it, they just can’t stop. like musical magpies, jan hohmann aka neurot and friedrich ‘freedarich’ greiling have collected all that glitters and all that’s gold about the 20th century’s sonic landscape. the best of your 80s collection takes on laptop loops with the odd ghetto glitch. while one dresses in a bespoke suite and likes to play with conservative chic, the other hogs the limelight and charms uswith his crooked smile and his air guitar.

mittekill - stringenz des wahnsinns english info | german info
mittekill’s music is crazy in a lo-fi sense and serve to both contrast and complement their unconventional lyrics. there is also a prevailing sense of loss to be felt in their music, which is both deadly and endearing. similar to outfits like grönemeyer, mittekill have for years been pushing their unique sound and educating the ears of their listeners while doing so. and as the saying goes; if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. ’stringenz des wahnsinns’ showcases both the breath and depth of mittekill’s talents – from wonderful whimsical love songs to awesome anthems. ‘my way is the road. my life is rock’n roll.’ some unknown net-user said: like DAF meets KANTE meets freibier.
