DESCRIPTION:STEPMOTHER is Lukas Simonis (Dull Schicksal\, Bazip Zeehok\, Co
	olhaven ...)\,\nJeroen Visser (Kazanchis\, morFrom ...)\, Bill Gilonis (Th
	e Work\, The Hat Shoes\,\nHail ...)\, since this second record -only 10 ye
	ars after the first- also\nincluding Tisa Neža Herlec aka Tisa World (mult
	idisciplinarian) and Philipp\nErnsting (ao. Albatre). The live version lac
	ks Gilonis but Dirk Bruinsma (ao.\nBlast\, Pumporgan) replaces him on bass
	.\n\nAbout STEPMOTHER and their ‘new’ album\; “Bring me flowers and tell m
	e you love\nme ̈ ...\nIt took slightly long before this second album was fi
	nished\, maybe due to the\nfact that the band members live in different co
	untries\, but although some\nmaterial was written not long after the first
	 album was finished\, it lacked\nsomething that wasn’t necessary when that
	 first album was made\; a good singer.\nSo in comes Tisa World and within 
	a very short time the album was finally\nfinished. What can we expect that
	 is different from the first album?\n\nThen it was “...Anglo-American-Dutc
	h post-punk prog rock and experimental\nsoundscapes with a dash of Bonzo D
	og Band thrown in...” -totally untrue-\n\nWhat more could you ask for? The
	 journey we are taking this time is as eclectic\nas before\, musically wit
	h nifty electronics\, spooky horn sections\, noisy\nguitars\, great drummi
	ng by\nErnsting and on top of that\, Tisa World’s evince voice that is abl
	e to go\nforward in all directions without losing it’s authenticity\, lyri
	cally we go from\nsucculent plants to more great trading days that are gre
	at\, goblin markets and\ndrunken gamblers. Can we say this? Yes we can thi
	s: he record is much more than\na sum of its parts – and again it’s beauti
	fully packed to boot\, with artwork by\nAlfred Boland.\n\nhttps://stepmoth
