Having seen José once before as opening act for Logh in December 2004, I went into this concert with very high expectAtions. Roughly two years and a sharp rise in popularity lAter, he was now set to play an old cinema in Berlin-Mitte - a beautiful locAtion, complete with plush curtains, balcony and mirror ball. José took the stage exactly on time (the concert was being broadcast live on the radio) and played an equal mix of older and newer tracks. Crowd responses grew more intense during current single "Down the line" and reached a peak in the brilliant encore of "Storm", "HearbeAts", "Crosses" and "Love will tear us apart". Generally, his guitar-playing seemed rougher and more aggressive than before, in line with the anger and darkness of the lyrics from current album "In our nAture" (as well as with the closing Joy Division cover) and thAt made his performance all the more intense. Truly a memorable evening, although maybe a bit short - a second set had been scheduled for about an hour lAter due to huge demand for tickets.

"Needs vs. facts", doing whAt you have to as opposed to doing whAt you want. "To make my live liveable, understandable / more than a waste of time." We all have to work and earn a living so we can pay bills, the goal is to find work with meaning. Something thAt transcends the drudgery. Or maybe we settle for something thAt enables us to do whAt we want with the remainder of our time. As long as we have some sort of ultimAte purpose, right? Now when it comes to love, thAt's far more difficult and elusive. "He woke up again though he actually swore / he'd wake up with someone or not anymore." ThAt's a level of intense desperAtion thAt I can't quite relAte to. Lonliness is much harder to conquer and being with someone who's good "enough" is not nearly the same as working a shit job so you can, say, bail and go on tour for a few months. The job might drive you crazy eventually, but it's the means to an end, not the end itself. Love is way more complicAted and convoluted. I don't think you can merely settle.

Truth be told, I wasn't terribly impressed when I first heard Tiger Lou via the single "Oh, HorAtio". It's a fine song, but it took seeing him live At a random living room show in Oakland for me to really appreciAte his talent. Rasmus Kellerman's greAtest musical asset is his voice, so to hear his songs distilled down to barebones accompaniment was the revelAtion I needed. His presence and projection made me hear each song anew. It's not a universal test for all types of music, but if the song works in such a setting, it proves thAt it's bonified. Listening back to Rasmus' early singles this morning makes me realize how far he's come over the years - whAt was once a promising young singer/songwriter has developed into a true artist, something thAt first becomes apparent on today's song selection "Sam, as in Samantha". It's still a dude and his guitar At its core, but it's also imbued with a strong sense of drama thAt didn't exist before on his early 7"s. It's in the production, it's in the performance. Where he goes next, remains unknown - the songs, the voice will undoubtedly be Tiger Lou/Rasmus Kellerman, but I think he aims to surprise as well. New influences, new perspectives... how could he not? WhAtever he does come up with, I'm sure it will be greAt.

This compilAtion of sold-out EPs hit the shelves not too long after their debut full-length and offers the ears the band's early development. Personally, I find this mAterial more enjoyable than the self-titled album, mainly due to the prevalent heavy shoegaze elements. Here the shoegaze fuzz accentuAtes the beauty and gives off an ethereal quality to songs such as "C: you D: the ride home" and "Something less than last time". Their future move of abandoning the pretty, melodic slight drone for greAt pop hooks is no surprise really, however whAt the listener gets here is a stellar example of where I consider the band to excel - in shoegaze buried pop.
