The Shell

Debido a que "h" ha comentado sobre una banda de la cual hablamos en el 2006 en este POST. He vuelto a redescubrir a The Shell. Una banda que no me queda claro si ha cambiado su estilo o no. Ellos dicen que no, a juzgar por la información en su web. Pero nada más abrir su MySpace y ver sus nuevas fotos y comparar el video que pusimos en el 2006 y el video de este 2009, la banda parece más roquera y menos cercana a bandas como Coldplay y Radiohead.

Info recogida en su web:

There are thousands of bands around the globe who always try to be special. And only a few really are. These 4 guys originally come from the Alps of Switzerland but named themselves The Shell. Probably because they realized in very early times of their carreer that every band has a soul that has to be protected. After spending 2 years partly in London and San Francisco the band settled in Berlin in 2006 to write and record their 2nd album DISCO MONTE CRISTO. Of course it’s meant to be the decisive breakthrough album. And everbody with a knowledgable view will judge: This band really has the chance for an international career. They kept their style and their promise. They still sound like themselves. And they still have the originality that so many miss in global times. Having started with some support tours in central Europe already in October The Shell are now ready to promote the first single BIG BALL in the 1st half year of 2009. It might be the start of a global movement. Just let it roll !

Nuevo disco saldrá el 6 de Marzo:
