DIE BÖSE HAND - Blumen 7'' 1993

Now to a band where I didn't have to think long and hard about whether I should buy their records or not, NO!... that was compulsory and couldn't go wrong. We're talking about Die Böse Hand and this three piece was a side project featuring the voice of EA80 Junge, drummer Ulf and the voice/guitar of Martin, both from the Boxhamsters. Both singers also play guitar/bass on the recordings. The band seems to exist only temporarily again from time to time and five 7Inches were released from 1990 to 1996 and mostly cover versions of world hits were recorded in their own style. 'Blumen' is their third single and it's the short version of the awesome Ranola track (a fucking must listen if you don't know this slab) and it's a single-sided record, the B-sides are featuring hand drawn designs that are unique to each copy like little flowers or even season greetings ("Christmas 2003"). Limited copies were painted by the mother of band member Co. All songs were released on one CD via Bad Moon/Musikzimmer in 2004 and I haven't forgotten, this one will follow.
