paolo, the first link I posted is the bio I wanted to translate ( http://www.akbar-collective.de/daturah/press/daturah_info.pdf ), If you wish to add something to the bio then please do so, but I'm thinking on adding them today so be hasty. Smile

Thanks for the help both of you guys! Clap

Tristan has done a very good job. Daturah's live space is quite messy; if you need some translation, please, indicate a more detailed path inside it (so I could find the text you need directly: I'm a very unpatient net surfer...).

Oi Ruben! I've played a bit with the info, so it's not a literal translation, but anyway: here's a translated biography.

"The band Daturah was formed in December 2003 in the city of Frankfurt, Germany. Their instrumental walls of sound characterize Daturah’s music. Their music builds up layer for layer and as the noise gradually grows lesser and lesser bearable, the music comes to an enormous climax.

This quintet plays quite lengthy songs, which makes it not that unusual for them to only play 3 songs at a 45-minutes concert. Heavily effected guitar patterns are played over melancholic melodies that fill the listener's room, while the bass and drum patterns make the listener feel like as if their being hypnotized at the very moment and that there's no getting away from it all. This aspect is given special attention to when the band performs live, because then they add visual projections via video to their songs.

Some people call Daturah's music 'psychedelic', others say it's more like 'post-rock', but one thing’s certain: you cannot argue that these five musicians don't share that longing for creating atmospheric as well as intense pieces of music. If you like artists like EXPLOSION IN THE SKY, MONO, RADIOHEAD, MOGWAI, GODSPEED YOU BLACK EMPEROR, or even ISIS, than Daturah is quite the recommendation!

Since their first live performance in July 2004, the band has played more than 20 gigs throughout Germany.

The band released their self-financed debut album in May 2005. This demo is now also available from the American Indie-label Graveface. "

Cheers,- Tristan

I'm trying to add this band called Daturah to the post-rock genre and all the info I have about them is written in German. So I'm asking if any German speaking member would like to translate the text for me?
