More AC/DC vs MARYBELL KATASTROPHY
We are incredibly busy preparing the upcoming album and november tour!
But still there's time to serve you a treat...
AC/DC extravaganza part deux(!)
Two weeks ago we posted a Marybell Katastrophy cover version of AC/DC's "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" recorded in our rehearsal room. Tjeck it HERE.
There were actually two more cover songs from this unique AC/DC session arranged for Barytone guitar and drums, and we are not keeping them to ourselves!
You Ain't Got A Hold On Me - from the album "High Voltage" (1975)
What's Next To The Moon - from the album "Powerage" (1978)
Performed by Marie Højlund and Klaus Q Hedegaard.
Paramedic audio mixing by Jacob Brøndlund and Emil Thomsen. Thanks a bunch!

There Is A Rhino On This Blog
It's a wonderful day!
Sun is shining, our Germany tour is only a month away and today we have a gift for you all!
It's the brand new single There Is No Rhino In This Room.
Download it for free!
For the brainy ones - here is a challenge; which two famous guys are quoted in the lyrics?
A hint: one has something to do with gastronomy and the other is about huge animals..
There Is No Rhino In This Room
If you wanna know there is no rhinoceros in this room
oh when we sleep in the corner,
we are a little more lonely,
and beautiful now,
oh when we sleep in the corner,
with all the other animals,
and if music be the food of love,
we will go to sleep in a corner of the sky,
If you wanna know,
If you wanna know,
There is no rhino in this room,
no sudden disapperance of reality,
there is a clear blue door in the clear blue sky,
New Spring, New Look and soon……….. New Music!

Good Old Germany – We’re Back
*Notice: this is no April Fool joke... or maybe... nope it's for real*
Lise here with a tour update:
Marybell Katastrophy and The Malpractice are once again joining forces, and this time they are headed for Germany.
This is where the wild things go:
The mini-tour celebrates that The Malpractice's debutalbum Tectonics is being released in Germany. And also that Marybell Katastrophy have used 2010 to compose new fantastic songs for an album that are going to come out late 2011. You can already listen to the 3 new songs 'Difference', 'Heavy Industry' & 'Knight Song' via the sidebar player.
And for those of you who don't know The Malpractice - where drummer Q. and leadsinger Marie also are a part of the lineup - it is Johannes Gammelby known from such "supa-dupa dope bands like the grungy I Am Bones and the hate-rock-y Beta Satan. As awesome mastermind-with-friends-outfit, demanding your attention as The Malpractice, hell is being raised!" The Malpractice takes grunge and aggressive rock as a point of departure, though they also adds pophooks and noisy synthesizers in a dirty, violent, existentialist universe. Hit singles includes "Oh, The Irony" and "Boss Stallion".
Together they aim to celebrate the good melody and create even better times.

Introducing SCHWTH & Morten S
Marie here. Still trying to regain the proper everyday feeling of monday after the AC/DC blast friday...but I really looked forward to present to you the 7. version of Difference by Schweppenhäuser/Thomsen & Morten Søndergaard. The duo Schweppenhäuser/Thomsen (shortened SCHWTH) consists of Jakob Schweppenhäuser and Emil Thomsen who are both members of Marybell Katastrophy, so here is a family version. They have collaborated with the poet Morten Søndergaard who has written several Marybell Katastrophy lyrics – e.g. The Difference – and now translated his own text into Danish... In 2007, SCHWTH & Søndergaard released the album Hjertets abe sparker sig fri ("The Heart's Monkey Kicks Itself Free") and launched the fantastic interactive website. I know it sounds stupid to say that I really love this version, as it is so close to me, but I just have to say that before I knew Jakob, Emil and Morten I saw their ocean music called Superpositionsprincippet performed at a beach in the setting sun, and I most say that until this day it is still on my top 5 of best concerts ever - and since then I admired their way of making something foreign sound so familiar!
Let There Be Rock

Say what?!
Yes, it is true. This weekend Marie is aspiring to the role as the lovechild of Brian Johnson and Angus Young. It happens when Marie and a bunch of other lovely ladies are paying homage to the Australian legends AC/DC this Friday at Copenhagen Jazzhouse as part of the series of concerts; 'We Proudly Present'.
Marie, accompanied by Mr. Q, are going to render three AC/DC songs dressed in quite new fittings. And they would very much like for you all to be there to witness the event.
It all happens this Friday (March 18th) at Copenhagen Jazzhouse. More info right after the click.
Remix and upcoming tour!
Tomorrow we go on tour with our dear friends The Malpractise - as you see in the cheasy picture of Johannes and I, from our last show in Copenhagen. Q is the drummer in both bands, I help Johannes with the singing, and Kenneth who is playing guitars in Malpractise also does the sound for us - one big family - and I´m really looking forward to this tour. You can see the dates on our Facebook , and read more about the tour in Gaffa, Soundvenue , Seimograf and Undertoner.
Furthermore I just finished a very orchestral remake of one of the Malpractise songs - the beautiful Human Condition - I love the original version, and here you can hear mine:
Making and shaking
We use this fine fine month to finish a lot of new songs and prepare for the february shows with Malpractise - it´s gonna be...! Today I recorded a lot of vocals and playing the recorder! I never thought I would rediscover this dubious instrument, but I guess there is a time for every instrument, and the beginning of 2011 is the beginning of the year of the flutes.
