Beatsteaks make free track download available for the month of June

Beatsteaks who we previously reported will be releasing their latest album ‘.Limbo Messiah’ in the UK on 12th July after the band plays a sold out show at London’s ULU on 5th June has now made available a free track which you can download during June. The track is called ‘Jane Becomes Insane’.

Half of the songs on ‘.Limbo Messiah’ are driven by the catapult energy that you find with American hardcore combos from the Eighties. “Bands like Black Flag, Minor Threat and so on can’t play like Pink Floyd, but they had this unbelievable power. On the other hand Bad Brains did have this diversified musicality,” Torsten enthuses. Besides the fast-as-lightning outpourings of energy, ‘.Limbo Messiah’ offers a varied array of musical approaches. ‘She Was Great’ has a funky groove and falsetto vocals; ‘Soljanka’ is a compact rocker crowned with thunderous Keith Moon drums; ‘E-G-O’ turns out to be an adventure that provides new kicks every time you hear it. And in the frantic ‘Demons Galore’ resounds a heartbreaking melancholic lead melody/solo guitar as well as backing vocals that are reminiscent of Queen.
