Dear friends and followers of this little theater, a new year is here and I hope you have welcomed it in a decent way and I start fucking 2026 with a band I like a lot and this is their second album on Rookie Records and it's a nugget made for every emotional mood. I'm talkin' about Love A, a four piece founded in Trier 2010, known for their distinctive German lyrics and charismatic melodic songs. I first encountered the band in 2013 at a legendary concert in the old Batschkapp in Frankfurt, and this album was the first one I ever bought immediately. That almost never happens, but the four of them impressed me so much that I couldn't resist. It was love at first tone, like when you recognize yourself in another person, discovering facets you like because you like them in yourself. It's almost as if your own self is standing before you, and you know and feel that this is the right person you want to wake up with every morning, and that's exactly the feeling I had when I first saw Love A in this hot and small area. I wanna quick slip in suitable review: "Irgendwie" (Somehow) positions thirteen highly danceable gems rather uncomfortably between stools, with clear lyrics, lyrical sophistication, and copious amounts of cynicism. Love A delivers without resorting to an overly obvious fuck-you attitude. And yet, the extended middle finger lurks everywhere – somewhat hidden behind great guitar melodies, post-punk bass lines, and singer Jörkk's undeniable entertainment skills. "Everything's Already Been Said/Just Not Everywhere." True to this motto, Love A depict the state of a society in which one increasingly doesn't know where to go, but somehow also quite clearly where not to go. (Eric Meyer) That's life, and anyone who knows it knows what I'm talking about. But I don't want to dwell on life's little shitties any longer; Love A does this brilliantly, and I highly recommend that if you don't speak German, you use a translator so you can understand what it's about. It's definitely worth it and helps you recharge and get rid of useless baggage, just like me when I do listening, looking ahead and seeing all the crap in a different light. A worthy successor to the debut and a short video from the concert back then is also included. Now I'm going fishing. Enjoy the record + screw dumb simple minded people!
