Freiburg – Brief & Siegel

A new breaker from This Charming Man, a newer band that has stripped off their children’s clothes with the third disc and is now giving full throttle. On the one hand the forward-lookingness of a Hamburg punk school, grandma Hans, clearly Turbostaat (the older things), on the other hand a higher aggressiveness and directness of 90s US Emo. This sounds so well and properly produced that Tobi Neumann (nozzle hunter) wanted to share a song. He got it and got it right: the guys know how they sound and how they arrange songs. Especially the voice can so intensify, that the whole shit, against which Freiburg sings even more avalanche-like. Whether they know Freiburg is a total hippy town? Hopefully not, otherwise they would make hippiescheisse. Or just because of the name: Here is the appearance and the theme, the fault in the perfect, the desire to scream, when everything is really quite good. Or so. (Contraszt)
