![]() X-Tractor:Taken directly from their MySpace page:Marzo started two new projects in 1997, Donnersoehne and X-Tractor. Actually both projects were meant to be some kind of liberation and self-discovery. When in 1999 Marzo met Kain Gabriel Simon they realized that they wanted more. So in the next years songs were written and they tackled with techniques a lot. Marzo and Kain both come from different music styles and they tried to combine as much as possible. Marzo comes from the industrial, punk, rock scene. Kain comes from the death metal, gothic, punk scene. Today Marzo also is interested in electro music. The work at the first album turned out to be difficult and drag on for several years. Not only because Marzo played in two other bands, such as Zed Yago. Kain played with Das Ich at that time and was on tour a lot. But after they left the other bands Marzo and Kain decided to entirely concentrate on Donnersoehne and X-Tractor and to finish the album. Marzo had to record all the instruments himself, because it isn’t easy to find good musicians in Hannover that are always ready for mischief. Marzo also is responsible for the whole production. He got help for that from Matthaeus, who was a great gain due to his longstanding studio experience. During studio work Marzo and Kain decided to call the project just X-Tractor (Donnersoehne is an other story).They came to that conclusion not least because X-Tractor signed a record deal with Twillight. Work is finished since July 2007. The album “Gehirnkonflikt” isn’t readily accessible because it combines 10 years of work. It’s meant to be raw, a little bit playful, buck the trend and commerce and combine a lot of things. Although Marzo and Kain didn’t gave a thought about it, the music of X-Tractor somehow fits into the Dark Wave, Dark Alternative, Industrial and Rock styles. Marzo and Kain wanted to produce a record that is the parting of the ways and can’t be pigeonholed. The record will be available at 05. Oct. 2007 and X-Tractor is waiting for reactions. -Mikki 9/07 More at: |
