In Position



Body: Anselm Dürrschmid / Florian Husbert Huber / Anatol Bogendorfer Location: Harbour / Linz / Austria Bio: Music fans / Played more than 300 shows all over Europe and in the USA as well as Russia and Latvia / Organised more than 300 shows for other bands / Influenced by American underground music Description: Three upright musicians follow their way and their musical and political concepts unflustered by discussions about downloads, music-business crisis, emo-hypes, marketing strategies - and, most important, know how to write a way cool rock song... Hot topic: Never costumed / Hardly ever disappointed / Often to meet at highway gas stations / Always polite / Enjoy good food Credo: We will never jump collectively on a band pic, because it looks stupid The Music: John Congleton (THE PAPER CHASE) wraps it all up: Tight song structures, rapid-fire drum attack, tumbling low end, aggressive guitar skronk and razor sharp lyrics; Valina has boiled these songs down to their essentials and produced their most concise statement to date. Every note on this new album is delivered with confidence and urgency. The band has refined its mission statement and creates an intriguing mix of rhythmic interplay counteracted by decisive melody.
