German Speaking Punkrock since the beginning of 2000, energetic concerts, several records and singles, 8 arms, 8 legs, 3 guitars (2times high, 1time low) and one sits and hits. Taking a bow to the early Toten Hosen, inspired by Social Distortion, a little bit of Fehlfarben in the voice and the ever lasting comparison to the lyrics of But Alive (R.I.P.). Subsumed, Bitume is intelligent Punkrock with a high recognition value and the taste for tension and melodies. LOLCH - the 5th album contains 13 songs. Music that shows the lovely relationship of bitume to the history of punkmusic. The songs are based on catchy guitar melodies - varies between fast and short vs. intensive and tricky slower songs. Everything we except from this band. Independent, attractive and this time more intensive. Punkmusic in the year 2010 that makes no expectations - straightforward and never boring. The lyrics are miles away from mainstream - clever - lyrical - well observed and sometimes caught between two chairs. No false compromises that why it is worth living for.
