Malte Gerhardt & Benny Lampret (Canine) |
Benny was
the first person in FMA to ask if I still would show up after we had scheduled
the interview.
Although I
had never heard of them, CANINE blew
me away with their performance and kick ass drumming, all heavily REFUSED-influenced.
I found out
that a part of CANINE’s current line-up
had already played in AT THE FAREWELL PARTY and that they just had finished recording their debut LP which they
recorded with Patrick, who just graduated from SAE and was about, with a partner, to start working in his own
studio called B9. A couple of weeks
later I had the chance to catch a sneak peak of their upcoming record which
should be well recognized by fans, fanzines, bookers and receive overall positive
reviews.
A couple of
weeks after that interview their drummer left the band to join ANNISOKAY.
The most
amazing fact about this interview is non-journalistic:
CANINE and I turned this entire thing into a
friendship. Firstly, Benny asked me if I wanted o join him and Patrick on their
trip to a LETLIVE-show in Cologne.
Subsequently, I helped them out as a merch guy when they opened a show for SILVERSTEIN and BEING AS AN OCECAN at Club
Vaudevile in Lindau. By now I’m also CANINE’s
(part time) live show photographer. Benny and I even tried to book shows once a
month together.
All that
happening from a simple interview in an unimportant German suburb for a project
that actually no one cares or cared too much about. Well, “my favorite things in life aren’t even things at all” (THE GHOST INSIDE).
