They are pigs and they like meat. But who are those pigs. In fact, they are no newcomers in the Luxemburgish underground. Josy J (Astral Fuck) and L Zeimet (Mental Decay) present themselves as sweating pigs from a new side. Already founded in December '96, you had to wait nearly 3 years to come into the delight of listening to their songs. Contrarary to their other bands, J & L show that they are also able to write song structures which you may follow. Their major influence is D.A.F., one of the most famous, but also most controversial electro bands of the eighties. So they use on their CD no guitars, but analogue synthesizers, lots of programmed machines and of course Josy J's unmistakable voice. His use of the German language is quite extraordinary. Quite interesting are definitely the lyrics which often treaten themes like love or a bizarre attitude towards women. Just listen to 'Starke Frauen' (rußbeschmierte Titten) or 'Teschnoschlampe' and you know what I mean. The CD also contains two coverversions: 'Herzlos' by Stratis (I'm not familiar with the original) and 'Der Mussolini' by D.A.F. (can't reach the original). One last question: Do you know which Luxemburgish politician (a real loser) you see on the cover?

You can contact the band at the following address:
Amoeba Records, 98 rue de Strasbourg, L-2560 LUXEMBURG
