Between dream and reality, between intimacy and alienation, between gray mining towns and a society fat on digital carbs. Stemming from the solo beginnings of bassist and singer Johannes Rest, Digital Carbs has evolved into a core piece of the Munich alt-rock scene.
With Oh Hedonism, Digital Carbs present their most versatile work to date. The album weaves together surreal imagery, social critique, and hypnotic song structures into a pull that swings between intimacy and loss of control. Is it daydreaming or an escape from reality when fish fly toward the sun and marmots bury you alive? Chasms in every direction, yet at least with a view of glowing billboards.
Live, the carefully crafted songs come into their own – energetic and intense, with a directness that gets under your skin.
