Part of The Picture feat. Fredrik Kinbom - Official Video / NEW
Part of The Picture is a song with maximum depth, a wave of imaginary images and emotionality. The arrangement seems to float. A repetitive guitar motif is surrounded by beguiling steel guitar slides. In addition, Heidi's singing between deep psychosis and enchanting beauty.
Of course, all of our songs contain the full spectrum of Much Better, Thank You - which means that no song the way it was conceived at home makes it onto the album.
Once the idea for a piece has been born, the result is taken to the rehearsal room and it doesn't matter whether it's just a few handwritten chords scrawled ...
MBTY wonder about the label ART FOLK, tell you about techno as part of their influences as well as classical music and what´s special about the band. Meet them in the studio while recording in 2018.
The typical Much Better, Thank You song includes variations in time as well as mood, but actually we love to waltz. You can call the lyric soprano, Heidi´s remarkable voice, as elfish, extraordinary or expressive, as you will find it changing between fragile and punchy. Underlined by diversified guitars, which suddenly start to cry and weep, and other instruments like bass clarinet or 5-string violin - the diversity of sounds expands with every new song.
This is really independent, though the songs will catch you from the first tune.
Unusual, but for sure - never boring.
In autumn 2020 we received a letter from England and seldom in our lifes have we been told or written anything that affected us as much, touched us so much and at the same time led to emotional confusion.
Of course - if it is somehow feasible, we will comply with this request.
Meanwhile we recorded a new, comforting song so that it can definitely be played, even if it shouldn't be possible for us to travel to the UK.
... felt like there was only bad news. Lots of crazy heads of state who, it feels like, only aim to undermine the understanding of democracy and the idea of solidarity - on which my worldview has manifested itself over decades - in their countries. We in Germany have a blue-right party that tries to imitate them and - at least in 2019 - found more and more supporters. I find that horrible and repulsive and I am unable to understand it. This is what `The House is Moving´ is all about.
