14-04-04 ...... Friesencrew ...... L//NES & MAYBE CYBORGS (beide GB)

L//NES (Manchester)

- formerly known as Hooker

All girl Manchester post-punk trio have an impressive CV; playing with Interpol, Television, The Slits, Le Tigre, 50 Foot Wave (Kristin Hersh, Throwing Muses) and touring with Gossip and Katastrophy Wife. They have toured Germany and played gigs in Spain, France and Holland.

With comparisons to QOTSA, Sleater Kinney, Siouxsie and the Banshees, PJ Harvey and Joy Division, they are a band to be seen. They have so much energy and passion and play every song like it’s their last day on earth.
MAYBECYBORGS (Berlin)

„The cyborg is a creature in a post-gender world“ (D. Haraway)

Equipped with scratchy electric guitars, old school drum samplers and other friendly machines and via a bunch of cables directly connected to a punk vs. candy voice: Maybecyborgs is a solo show but sounds like a whole band most of the time by using new wave and rock'n'roll derivatives as echos from the past and melting it with beats and loops while a spinning mirror ball seems to hang over them. Sometimes it leans towards a more noisy and experimental direction, sometimes it is as seductive, exaggerating and hybrid as pop wants to be.

Through the last three years Maybecyborgs has played shows with Hunx And His Punx, Rae Spoon, Electrosexual , Kat Frankie, Des Ark among others and will be on tour for the first time with Lines (Ex-Hooker) from Manchester. After the 2012 Release „Pink On Green“ (Yesway Records) a bunch of new songs and a new E.P. is in the making.
