Releasedate: 12-02-2010; Label: Maria Records (Soulfood Music)

A band that has already rocked the masses at Rock am Ring twice (Germany’s biggest open-air festival) only three years after getting together, couldn’t have done too much wrong. The story of The Intersphere reads like a modern day rock fairytale. In 2006, four musicians in their mid-twenties met in a practice room, and what happened on that day surprised them more than anyone else. “Back then I really only wanted to take some of my songs and play ‘em live”, remembers singer Christoph Hessler. It was quickly clear to everyone that all four shared the same musical vision, as the melodies and grooves just seemed to grow together by themselves and they experienced those magical moments that only rock music can provide. With their debut album “s.o.b.p.”, The Interesphere had already created a small sensation in the German rock scene. On their follow-up album “interspheres >< atmospheres” they have finally done what other bands have been trying to do their entire musical careers: an album that captures the listeners from the first to the last note and takes them on an acoustic journey of discovery. And I can fully agree with that. The album definitely captures you and does not let go of you until it is all over. The first song on the album is an instrumental piece. Fast and rocking it continues, staying somewhere between alternative, punk and psychedelic rock. The singer has a soft voice which can also blast out strong. “Ghostwriter” is a very deep song. The music makes you think you are listening to a big selling band from the USA, but you are still listening to The Intersphere from Germany who are on their way up. All the songs have big potential to get stuck in your head, each song has a slow as well as a faster part in it, so each track is very diversified in itself. This album is simply awesome, easy going and catchy songs all the way throughout the album. Somehow this music makes you relax. “In Satellites” is another deep song which has a big sound in the background as is quite emotional. No song is like any of the songs before. This album is meant to be heard over and over again without having the listener getting bored. You can find the lyrics to each song in the booklet, it looks like they are handwritten. The album layout is very unique and interesting. The Intersphere is an awesome band with an awesome new album. A must have for everybody who likes good music! So go get your copy now.
