Noise-Rock/Post-Punk band CHILDREN debut EP out now !

26 September 2022

Rapid Eye Records proudly presents “Counterfeit Fire” - the debut EP by the noise rock band CHILDREN, due on 12” vinyl and as a digital release on September 23, 2022. Get ready for a frictional force of angular rock - barely hanging by threads of jazz, proto-punk and 1990’s noise rock, sewing together what is a both free-form and repetitive wet blanket of existential dread. Hitting the mark somewhere between THE STOOGES, SCRATCH ACID and free jazz - this release is also undoubtedly coloured by its birthplace Berlin; cold yet wild, limitless within its sharply edged box.

Formed by multi instrumentalist and lyricist Tim Nagel and completed with guitarist/bassist Ivan Krasnov, the EP features guest appearances by Gottfrid Ahman (IN SOLITUDE, WATAIN etc) and Linnéa Olsson (MAGGOT HEART). It was recorded by Torben Utecht (OCCVLTA), mixed by Pierre Somville (DOLCH etc) and mastered by James Plotkin (EARTH etc).

Fabien

Born 1969, grew up with the NWOBHM sounds, musically educated with cult french magazines that were ENFER and METAL ATTACK, definitely nailed to the style when "The Number Of The Beast" by IRON MAIDEN was released... From 1982, it was clear life would never be the same ! Young & getting wild to the HEAVY sounds of SAXON, VENOM, BLACK SABBATH, MOTORHEAD, Young Fab also discovered thanks to school mates the NOISE, FILTH & FURY of Hard-Core/Punk bands like G.B.H, DISCHARGE, BROKEN BONES but also CRO-MAGS, BAD BRAINS, FUGAZI... and later on, through the 90's, everything that was ALTERNATIVE, EXPERIMENTAL, GRUNGE, INDUSTRIAL (SONIC YOUTH, NINE INCH NAILS, SOUDGARDEN, ALICE IN CHAINS)... Passion & curiosity grew up as years went by ... Fate was SEALED... no turning back ! No Music = No Life !
