Barbie Bangkok Part 1
Barbie Bangkok Part 2
Somewhere in the Indian Summer of 2002 Barbie Bangkok made their live debut.
Right away, their innovating songs stole the hearts of many. The Ghent-based
label Kinky Star was impressed enough to release their first EP (which contained
such singles as ’Roll Rockin’’ and ’Oh My God’) and that same year the band
reached the finals of Humo’s Rock Rally, Belgium’s legendary band contest
which also served as the starting point of such bands as dEUS, Evil Superstars
and Das Pop.
After all this, the group decided to focus on the next important step: writing and
recording their debut album. They found the right man for the job in Frans
Hagenaars, a Dutch producer who began his career in the 90’s and produced
such records as ’Palomine’ by Bettie Serveert. Recording sessions began at the
start of 2007 and soon enough the band and Hagenaars had rounded up and
crystallized 13 songs - enough to form a strong debut album which was
christened ’People and Geometry’. The album is filled with catchy songs, groovy
pop-rock with a healthy dose of humour which reminds one of They Might be
Giants, early Bowie and Talking Heads in their prime, while at the same time
keeping their feet firmly in the here and now.
Now, more than ever, Barbie Bangkok is ready for the real stuff. The first single
’People & Geometry’ has been received with positive acclaim. It is time again to
reclaim the stage.
