Welcome aboard: CAPILLARY ACTION
People, you can’t believe how much joy and enthusiasm flew through the Discorporate-headquarters the last days.
We are extremely proud and challenged to sign US-Band CAPILLARY ACTION and release their music in Europe. This breathtaking group (based in Philadelphia and New York) released two acclaimed and complety different records so far and plays with an ever-rotating cast of characters. The only constant, Mastermind Jonathan Pfeffer, is 22 years (!) old… but he already composes some of the most stimulating music in contemporary experimental rock: Free Jazz horns and Brazilian rhythms intersect with sweetly crooned vocals and the ferocity of a raging rockband.
The band has toured endlessly the last two years, mainly through the USA and Europe, playing over 300 shows alongside Shudder To Think, Joe Lally (Fugazi), Ruins, Dos, Daughters and 31Knots.
Expect the release of their third masterpiece “So Embarrassing”, followed by a three-month-Europe-Tour, in Spring 2009. And now… CHECK THEM OUT and FALL TO YOUR KNEES -> CLICK!
OSIS KRULL have a guitar-player
Yes yes… Christian Buchmann, accidental guitarist of Subjazzed-Strongrock-Outfit OSIS KRULL, actually plays classical guitar. This strange dude just finished his exams in “Guitar Worldmusic” and on YouTube you can watch some videos of his amazing stuff: WATCH HERBERT HALL!
By the way… the next live dates of Osis Krull:
Nov28 – WUPPERTAL (U-Club)
Nov29 – ESSEN (Panic Room)
Dec05 – LEIPZIG (Four Rooms)
Jan31 – LEIPZIG (G16)
Welcome aboard: ZARBOTH
Discorporate Records is happy to announce the signing of French band ZARBOTH. Actually a project of our dear friend Etienne Gaillochet (of We Insist!) with Phil Reptil (of Osteti), this Paris-based duo is going to settle down in our cosy shelter for the weird and wicked.
ZARBOTH’s plans include the release of a Debut-CD in 2009 (in cooperation with Exile On Mainstream Records) and some touring of course. You’ll have the opportunity to see their “maiden voyage” in January 2009, when they support The Season Standard and Schnaak live in France. Be prepared and check them out here.
THE SEASON STANDARD-News
“Squeeze Me Ahead Of Line” will be released November 18th 2008 in the USA via our friends of Unsung Records (Ryko Distribution / Warner Music). Release dates for the rest of Europe and Japan coming soon…
The booking for the TSS-Winter-Tour is almost complete. The four guys will do some shows in Germany, Austria and Switzerland with an amazing visual-show and with the help of SCHNAAK (in January) and ZARBOTH (in France). Be there!

ZONNHAIDER’S CLUB-News
After the release of the “Galao EP” we heard not much of the Club. Christoph’s been in Shanghai to have some solo-gigs over there, Christopher has been seen last in Moldova and Zonnhaider-Founder Martin is involved in several other projects. That is called “creative intermission”, yes.
SCHNAAK-News
The two twins Mathias and Johannes schedule the release of their Debut-EP “Wo gefischt wird, da sind auch Möwen” (Live in Berlin) for early 2009, followed by tours in Europe and the USA later next year. Before that they join THE SEASON STANDARD on their Winter-Tour in January.
TARENTATEC-News
Like THE ZONNHAIDER’S CLUB also Tarentatec are going to have a little break. Due to reasons like studies, other projects and creativity the founding member of Discorporate will take a rest until next spring. In a complete new lineup and with new songs the guys are preparing a little tour in 2009 and also the recording of another longplayer.

Formerly part of the Tour-Edition on DVD, we can now present you “The Video Experience” for a limited period. This 27-minute-documentary/film about TARENTATEC and OSIS KRULL has been made by our dear friend MUREIS, who put together live-stuff, rehearsal material, video-art and many beautiful outtakes. We love the way he did it!
This film (part of “The Candy and Springtime Experience”-Split-CD) has been divided in 4 parts.
You can watch the parts here:
Keep in mind that the original DVD includes nice extras and beautiful packaging. There are some copies of the limited Tour-Edition (CD + DVD) left. Just drop us a line and you can purchase the package for only 12€.
