info text [english]:
mOck from Berlin challenges us in all the best ways: the trio oscillates between scintillating outbursts and minimalistic reservation. Its unique and yet catchy sound feeds on sources such as post hardcore. Bands like Karate, Honey For Petzi, or Tortoise are important influences. Persisting melodies, rhythmic ruptures and free floating structures that are given to sudden changes combine to create an experience of Puzzle-Rock that lends itself to a very fine listening.

info text [german]:
mOck aus Berlin fordern uns heraus. Das Trio bewegt sich zwischen sprühenden Ausbrüchen und mimimalistischer Zurückhaltung. Ihr eigenwilliger und doch eingängiger Sound speist sich etwa aus dem Post-Hardcore. Bands wie Karate, Honey For Petzi oder Tortoise sind wichtige Einflüsse. Treibende Melodiösität, Rhythmuswechsel, fließende und sich plötzlich ändernde Strukturen ergeben zusammen einladenden Puzzle-Rock zum genaueren Hinhören.
