PM I Am Kloot 30.11.2012
FKP Scorpio Konzertproduktionen GmbH Große Elbstr. 277 a · 22767 Hamburg Tel. (040) 853 88 888 · www.fkpscorpio.com PRESSEMITTEILUNG 30.11.2012 I Am Kloot im kommenden März auf Tour Im Januar kommenden Jahres veröffentlichen I Am Kloot ihr mit Spannung erwartetes neues Studioalbum „Let It All In“. Wie schon beim Vorgänger „Sky At Night“, der immerhin für den Mercury Preis nominiert war und den Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik erhalten hat, haben Guy Garvey und Craig Potter von Elbow die Produktion übernommen. Und wie schon bei allen Werken des Trios aus Manchester sticht die Qualität des Songwritings ganz besonders hervor. I Am Kloot ist wahrlich eine der hervorragenden klassischen britischen Bands unserer Zeit, die inzwischen mehr als eine Generation von Musikern geprägt hat. Gitarrist und Sänger John Bramwell, Bassist Peter Jobson und Schlagzeuger Andrew Hargreaves machen einfach, das muss man neidlos anerkennen, nur großartige Musik. Das exorbitante kreative Potential des Texters und Komponisten Bramwell setzen seine Mitspieler kongenial um. Dabei ist es egal, ob I Am Kloot in kleiner Besetzung spielen oder sich ein Orchester ins Studio holen: Stets bleibt es ihr typischer Sound. Das gilt auch für „Let It All In“: Vom bluesigen Opener „Bullets“ über das mystische „These Days Are Mine“ bis zur einfachen Eleganz von „Some Better Day“ strahlt das Werk von innen die tiefe lakonische Leidenschaft aus, die diese Band so sehr charakterisiert. Guy Garvey behauptet ja schon seit der ersten Platte von I Am Kloot (die er übrigens auch schon produziert hat), dass die Jungs vor allem eine so großartige Live-Band seien, dass man im Studio eigentlich nur den Aufnahmeknopf drücken müsse, schon sei die Platte fertig.

No surprise to Mancunians, who have never been short of pride in a city that is home to two of Englands’s best football clubs, the BBC’s MediaCity, the Lowry and Imperial War Museum North. But it’s a city where the advice of a local can be crucial. The Hacienda hasn’t survived the past two decades of regeneration but Manchester still boasts England’s most innovative nightclub, the Warehouse Project, and its bohemian Northern Quarter has at least 20 record shops, plus galleries, live venues, bars and restaurants, and some great clothes shops.
