it's a musical release 2nd album!
...and it's called "For Years And Years"! And it's great! Cause it's full with dozen gorgeous (indie) pop gems; tracks that, even though somewhat laconic, nevertheless manage to uplift the listener; songs so euphoric and stirring, in fact, that last time around, the choosey people at allmusic.com concluded that one “would have to look hard to find a better indie pop album than ‘The Music Makes Me Sick’ in 2008.” Throughout the album, “For Years And Years” picks up the pace and gains more and more momentum: “Cleverness” is built from vibraphone sounds, organs and drum rolls (just like in that “Fish Song”), and “One Million People” is a catchy piano pop gem that owes as much to Carole King as it does to label mate Masha Qrella. And of course all these tracks have that certain DIY feel. That may also appear, as Norman Nitzsche, who mixed the latest album by The Whitest Boy Alive, was the only additional person to help out in the studio. And then there is, of course, the band’s unique way to layer the vocals – two voices unisono, frequently singing together throughout both the verse and the chorus. However, it's a refreshing listen. And you can start listening now, as, even if the official release is on Friday, 16th, the album is now pre-released via our webshop anost.net. The Vinyl is limited to 500 copies and it's pressed on white Vinyl! And from upcoming Friday on, you will get the record's digital version, for example via Itunes! In the meantime you learn a lesson for life from Robert (from It's a Musical) by clicking here.

fenster's debut album now pre-released!
Our first release in 2012 is the fantastic debut album by Fenster, a duo of New Yorker-turned-Berliner JJ Weihl and Berlin-born Jonathan Jarzyna, playing nocturnal pop music, layering subtle distortions, melodic chords and city soundscapes under dream narratives: Futuristic nostalgia with minimal percussion and echoey guitar riffs with a lyrical bent towards the macabre dada world of dreams. 'Bones' is released as LP in a deluxe gatefold-cover as well as on CD and digital via Itunes. Official release is next Friday (March, 2nd) – but Vinyl and CD version are now exclusively pre-released via our webshop anost.net! Watch out: first 25 copies of both formats are signed by the band!
After a record release party next week in Berlin, Fenster will tour the US (incl. SXSW festival) and Europe this spring: check all dates here!
