December Peals

In life there are always moments that you ask yourself: “How did I come to this point and what brought me here? Where are my goals?” The DECEMBER PEALS are cutting right to the chase of this chapter: “Are you still yourself? Do you still act on your gut feeling? Who are you? Who leads you?
Ladys and gentlemen, this chapter’s called “PEOPLE HAVE DEMONS”.
More than 300 shows, including festivals at home and abroad with bands like the Beatsteaks, Strike Anywhere, Donots, de Heijderoosjes, the Donnas, New Model Army, Sewergrooves, an ever increasing number of fans, the release of 3 EP’s, 1 full length album, an uncountable number of demo recordings, some songs on some compilations. They are no broken rock’n’roll heroes. They have never made it to the top. (They even never made it to a suggestion of being there). An abstract of the biography makes clear: They pay the piper and call the tune! With the power from a minimum of 5 beating hearts they are always on their way.
After some blows below their belts, in 2007/2008 their efforts were a little success: With their EP "IF YOU WANNA BE LOUD" (produced by Jan-Dirk Poggemann and Guido Knollmann of the Donots at Principal Studios, Senden [e.g. Die Toten Hosen, In Extremo, Söhne Mannheims]) the DECEMBER PEALS attracted the attention of European music scene; without label, without distribution.



Breathe in: "high energetic asskicking rock sound from Germany, where really everything’s made right – the atmosphere, the songs, the fat sound" says German OX Fanzine. "A riff monster, which will blow you away" thinks Slamzine Mag. "This is not another boring copy and nothings sounds put on. They live their music" is the adjudgement of With love, the underground. Breathe out.



Die DECEMBER PEALS are on their way again and in league with the devil: Toni Meloni (Amadeus-Award-Winner with: The Sorrow’s „Origin of the Storm“) as new companion and producer extends an invitation to the band: Project album begins.



They take the time they need to do it right. They keep the appropriate distance from everything to start again right from the beginning. The result: The new album “PEOPLE HAVE DEMONS” will be available from 01/29/2010 for download and as limited digipak version (D.I.Y. in cooperation with Chorus of One Records [Italy], Distribution GER/AT/CH: Cargo Records)!
These 13 new songs were sent to set the new benchmark. "PEOPLE HAVE DEMONS" will not only dry your tears, but it will also reload the weapon to blow you away at the same time: BANG!
The sound spectrum has been greatly enlarged: The frantic song "SAINTS AND SINNERS" becomes engaged to delicate and graceful "LET GO" and makes you wanna dance by rhythmic songs like "THE DEVIL YOU KNOW". The troublemakers from “IF YOU WANNA BE LOUD" present themselves as grown up dirty bastards on "PEOPLE HAVE DEMONS"
This demon is in all of us and he has it in for you!
PEOPLE HAVE DEMONS!
