VIBRAVOID INFO Düsseldorf´s finest flagship in terms of psychedelic rock strikes back after a successful European tour with their new re-release of their fourth album “Distortions“ in November 2013. Visionary interpretations of Krautrock classics like Ruckzuck (Kraftwerk), Mother Sky (Can) or Eye Shaking King (Amon Düül II) plus fantastic self penned compositions made the album from 2009 to a milestone and blue print of modern psychedelia. Original copies change hands for a couple of hundred Euros. Unsurprisingly smart business men realized the real market value of the group and flooded Ebay with bootlegs at the beginning of the year – which actually sold for more than 60 Euros each in the times of illegal downloads! Also in November English cult label Fruits De Mer will release “Colour Your Mind“ EP that contains due to public demand three tracks from the recent long play album “Delirio Dei Sensi“. For a long Vibravoid are regarded as adequate ambassadors of Underground Rock made in Düsseldorf in the tradition of early Kraftwerk and NEU! and the group manages to maintain this heritage afar from short lived trends with their own and highly individual music between art and commerce deeply rooted in the 1960s. Since the debut album “2001” Vibravoid established themselves as trendsetters what let to the cooperation with “Flower Power“-inventor Sky Saxon of The Seeds. These recording were published on the album “A Poetry Of Love“(2010). 2010 and 2011 saw the release of the group´s outstanding appearances at Germany Hippie-Cult-Festival Burg Herzberg on CD and LP (Herzberg Verlag) what contributed to the good reputation of the Vibravoid. Vibravoid concerts are one of a kind experiences, supported by their self made liquid lightshow and possible songlengths of up to 60 minutes, the group creates a trancelike atmosphere, that awakes memories of the great era of rock music. Over the last years Vibravoid released a lot of highly acclaimed albums like ”Minddrugs“, 2011, ”Gravity Zero“, 2012 and ”Delirio Dei Sensi”, 2013 that sold – for a real underground band – in astronomic quantities! If 2013 started turbulently, it found a sad highlight in July, when Vibravoid was supposed to play a show with legendary UK band The Deviants in London… RELEASES 2013 After the amazingly successful re-release of the 3rd album “The Politics Of Ecstasy“ (as an opulent double CD-Set) in spring 2013, Stoned Karma Records treats us right in time with a very special surprise: cult album “Distortions” (2009) will also be re-released in an amazing re-mastered 2LP and 2CD edition with a lot of new bonus tracks.
