Sophie's Earthquake (DE) for Psych/Space

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Relatively new band from Germany. They appear to be unsigned but do have a very professionally produced EP for sale on Bandcamp (at least it sounds professionally produced)... so given that, I decided to post about them here rather than in the unsigned forum (but feel free to correct me if I made the wrong choice).
I am blown away by the quality of what I'm hearing. It's heavy, dark, spacey, and incredibly well-paced. See for yourself:

Here is the bio information taken from their page:

"Sophie´s Earthquake started as a project of Janosch & Mitja back in 2008. After a lot of Jams, sound experiments and effect knob twistling..the sound of Sophies Earthquake evolved and finally petrified on the recently released, self titled EP.

But don´t be fooled..their sound is vivid and ever-changing..one never knows what to expect.."

	Checked quickly and felt not bad, but we need to wait for another "official (not name your price if possible)" release ... not eligible to be added in PA currently, methinks. A promising band indeed. Thanks for your suggestion.

	Good point, I forgot there was no minimum price (I think I paid them 6 euros for the EP as encouragement). I can't imagine it will be long before they get snapped up by a label given the quality they've shown, hopefully a full album will follow.
