Blitzkrieg bop

Germans describe themselves as indie gothic pop. That seems about right. They've had a bunch of members and released an album on Arena Rock in 2007. I'm not sure if the four guys on stage are the same four who started the band so I'm not even going to bother to guess at who's who.

When Germans twist a knob, it stays twisted!



Jaguar action!



Singing action!



Keyboards on the right, keyboards on the left ...



They like to switch stuff around.



The whole lot!



Singing action!



Drumming action!



Singalong action!



The shouty bit.



Allegedly the band is in the midst of reinvention, reconfiguration ... maybe they're just out partying.
