Description
"In the fast rotating indie-subworld inhabited by the German-Italian Woog Riots, it’s just a quick short-cut from riotpop / garagefolk to twee-rave and dance-punk!The band began their pop career in 2004 by compiling a tribute album for iconic Manchester band “The Fall“, which featured eclectic European and transatlantic contributions highly appreciated by John Peel.
Their own first single followed, released on German label “What’s So Funny About“. The two creative master-minds Silvana Battisti and Marc Herbert sharing the vocals for “King of Pop“, a brilliant statement of future intent.
They addressed the royal imbalance later by writing the lo-fi electro hit “Queen of Pop“, featuring on their debut album “Strangelove TV“. Favourable press reviews followed, bringing comparisons with the New York scene including Adam Green and Kimya Dawson with their band Moldy Peaches."
