Come with us to experience one of Viennas most unique and loudest Band! The four-piece Band formed through a shared love of music, family influences, and the drive to create something powerful and authentic. Every member of Mad Prophet has a unique story, but all of them share one thing in common: music has been with them since day one. Linus, the band's lead singer and bassist, grew up in Salzburg in a household where music wasn’t just a hobby—it was a way of life. His father played bass...

This month we were lucky enough to have had a chat with Perfumed Garden. They told us about their beginnings, the bands journey, and their new EP “Get me out”. Let’s start with their individual beginnings: Singer Max, the last one to join the band, started out with classical music through the influence of his mother, who is a classical musician. Because of a crush he had on a violinist he began playing the violin before starting to learn how to play the drums later on. At age 9 or 10 the...

In their new single “S.Y.A.G” Drunken Pumpkins provocatively addresses the terrible situation on queer rights. I as a queer person myself interpret it as a big “Fuck you!” to homophobic people. The Austrian punk band starts off their lyrics with quoting said intolerant individuals in the first verse. In the refrain they portrait their reaction to such problematic statements. This pattern of action and reaction continues through the song and shows that if we speak up and provoke it’s...

There is a new band on the horizon here in Vienna and their name is Killing Milfs. With just a few concerts they have already captured the scene’s hearts and gathered quite the following. Now they got the chance to tell us all about their beginnings, inspirations, what drives them, and their favourite things about being in a band. It all started for them when frontwoman Fine moved out of a shared apartment with guitarist Moritz, who got his love for music from his dad’s vinyl collection and...

In true Cupiditas fashion “Tired Hands” is a song about longing, love, and yearning with an unmatchable bassline and upbeat guitars in the chorus, while the verses have a more thoughtful tone. The song makes you realise that love is not in your hands, that no matter how much you long for a feeling you once had, for a person you once held so tight, or for a time that is still so dear to you. It translates a kind of hurt but the instrumentals, at least to me, carry something upbeat, something...

In a world where female voices are often underrepresented in rock, Black Sunzet is here to change that. These girls are not only known for their garage-punk sound but also for their powerful messages on equality, empowerment, and authenticity. The trio, consisting of Jael, Johanna, and Selma, blends raw talent with bold statements, proving that girls can rock just as hard as anyone else. The story of Black Sunzet began in a music-focused classroom, where a school project would lay the...

Vor einigen Monaten hatte ich die Ehre das Stück „Grau - in einer farbenfrohen Welt“, geschrieben von Max Melo, im Theater Spektakel besuchen zu dürfen. Das Stück begann äußerst unauffällig während einige Gäste im Publikum noch ihren Platz suchten. Die Darsteller*innen begaben sich auf die Bühne und führten dort wortlos ihre Aufwärmübungen durch, etwas das sonst hinter den Kulissen passiert. Dies gab den Zuschauern die Gelegenheit bereits einen ersten Blick auf die...

In august we sat down with The Generation again to talk to them about their, now released, EP Heartbreak Season. They told us all about the production, how they started recording in their basement, and the story behind the EP itself. The idea for an EP was not a new one at all as they’ve already talked about it when there still were five of them, way over a year ago, but it took them some time to record, mix and master, and finish it. Although before something can be finished it has to be...

With a prominent bass and heavy vocals Drunken Pumpkins starts off a strong and critical punk anthem about modern life on social media and the life we pretend to live. Even though the song is not even 3 minutes long the band proceeds to bring across their message perfectly through straight forward lyrics, raspy vocals, and heavy instrumentals. Especially the beginning of the song stands out with its guitar intro and the subsequent bass guitar line that can be heard clearly, something I enjoy...

In Nowhere Arcane Bloom addresses the state of our society and world, how we live in almost dystopian times and keep doing nothing about it. This is shown perfectly by the last line of the song “We’re the cancer of the earth and the lungs turn black” which is very self-explanatory. Musically the song gives space for the lyrics to reach the listener without disappearing the int background completely. The intro sets the tone for the whole songs with dominant drums which stays that way...
