With the self-release of their first three singles "Satellite" "Chewed Up," and "Survivor," the Berlin-based psych rock/krautrock outfit Bloke quickly amassed a profile across Europe for a unique fusion of krautrock rhythms and shoegazer guitar textures paired with garage punk energy that's draws from frontman and founder Jakob Buraczewski's five year stint in London, where the band was originally founded. The Berlin-based outfit has shared stages with Helicon, Verstärker, Data Animal, Body Horror, The Shadracks have developed a reputation for a raw, intense and noisy live set. Building upon growing buzz, Bloke's highly-anticipated debut EP Living Without Expectations is slated for a February 14, 2025 release through Tonzonen Records. The band's Jakob Buraczewski explains that the EP was "envisioned as the foundational collection of sounds, noise and concepts that would give life to the project Bloke in a musical scene. It was essential for me to ensure that each song resonates with the others, creating an interconnected and cohesive experience. The journey from capturing the essence of the songs in the intimate setting of a home studio to meticulously re-recording each instrument in the refined atmosphere of a professional studio can be quite an emotional rollercoaster. It's a process filled with passion and dedication, where every note matters and every sound contributes to creating something truly special." The EP's latest single "Money Says" sees the Berlin-based outfit pairing a forceful and thunderous motorik-groove, scuzzy, distortion-fueled power chords and swirling feedback with enormous hooks and choruses. While sonically recalling A Place to Bury Strangers, Hookworms, METZ and others, the song as the band explains is inspired by the childhood game Simon Says, "using it as a metaphor to explore capitalism's impact on society and relationships. Just as in the game, where commands prefaced with 'Simon says' must be obeyed, we often silently comply with what 'Money Says' reflecting societal norms. This subtle agreement can feel like conditioning, offering a poignant commentary on our interactions. The melody features a persistent feedback tone and guitar strums that punctuate the social narrative." Fittingly, the trippy visual for "Money Says" features moments of commerce and business in super saturated colors.
