A rollercoaster ride through two decades of intelligent, raw and energetic indie rock. Organisms are 4 guys who knew each other even before the year punk broke. They’ve been played in bands like Spider Rico, Incense, Feverdream, The Solo Men Only and Fine China Superbone. So it wasn’t that hard to mix their individual taste and come up with some noisy rock songs. The music of Organisms of this The Hague / Rotterdam outfit is like an uptempo rollercoaster that guides you through two decades of intelligent, raw and energetic indie rock. During their intense live shows it’s nopt uncommon that instruments get damaged. The ‘Hot Hands EP’, released on the infamous Motorwolf Records featured 4 noisy rock songs recorded at the studio of Corno Zwetsloot. It is available on red transparent 10” vinyl. But this was just a taste of things to come. The full-length ‘Rainbow Black + White’, to be released 24th February 2012 on Scene Spirit Records, was recorded in Rotterdam at the Qababaca’a Studios by Arnold van de Velde together with their friends Niels van Beers (Low Point Drains) and Mau Pinna (The Deaf). Ambitious as they were, they asked Alex Newport (At the Drive-In, Pissed Jeans, The Melvins, Death Cab For Cutie) to mix the record. He responded enthusiastically and so the record came about. It’s their best recording yet and offers a great perspective of the musical diversity of the band without losing their raw live energy.Tumblr (3.0; @organisms)http://www.weareorganisms.com/“Alsof je al hardlopend alles om je heen opsnuift en meeneemt op een heerlijke trip door een ongerept woest landschap. Daar weten de heren niet alleen adrenalinespiegels mee naar recordhoogtes te brengen, ze koppelen dat ook ogenschijnlijk moeiteloos aan emotievolle klanken, dynamiek en smakelijke, lekker in het gehoor liggende muziek.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.subjectivisten.nl/caleidoscoop/2012/02/organisms-rainbow-black-white.html" title="Subjectivisten"

In de chaos die gecreëerd wordt, blijven ze strak doorspelen. Lopend door en liggend tussen het publiek, struikelend over elkaar, doen de gitaristen een flinke duit in dit chaotische zakje. Deze rockende rollercoaster laat een ravage achter, zowel op het podium, als in de hoofden van het publiek.</p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15824269762http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15824269762Wed, 25 May 2011 11:16:00 -0400<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxsk0gH6351r9rh29o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><div> <p>Check out the report of Garagefest at <a href="http://www.3voor12.vpro.nl/artikelen/artikel/44763503" target="_blank">VPRO</a></p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825656592http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825656592Wed, 25 May 2011 11:12:00 -0400<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxskbzmVDt1r9rh29o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><div> <p>Organisms, live at Supermarkt, the Hague.  Just before the Philicorda broke in two.</p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825839029http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825839029Wed, 11 May 2011 07:32:00 -0400<div> <p>17:30 - Doors open<br/>18:00 – 18:30 SUNRIDER<br/>18:50 – 19:20 ORGANISMS<br/>19:40 – 20:00 JOHN BOB ROADSHOW<br/>20:20 – 20:50 TRAUMAHELIKOPTER<br/>21:10 – 21:40 DE KEEFMEN<br/>22:00 – 22:30 LOW POINT DRAINS<!-- more --><br/>22:50 - 23:20 ANOMALYS<br/>23:40 – 00:00 JOHN BOB ROADSHOW<br/>00:00 – 00:30 SHAKING GODSPEED<br/>00:30 – 01:00 dj’s Gary X & Jony Trash</p> <p>POPCENTRALE, Merwedestraat 48, Dordrecht </p> <p>More info: <a href="http://maps.google.nl/maps?f=q&source=embed&hl=nl&geocode=&q=Merwedestraat+48,+Dordrecht&sll=51.816919,4.690862&sspn=0.018358,0.038581&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Merwedestraat+48,+3313+Dordrecht,+Zuid-Holland&ll=51.819138,4.693337&spn=0.004755,0.009645&z=14" target="_blank">Route</a>, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=197382590294031" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825678121http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825678121Tue, 10 May 2011 00:00:00 -0400<a href="https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=121452407929392">The Lords Of Altamont + Organisms</a>: <div> <p>Friday May 6, Supermarkt, the Hague.</p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825967728http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825967728Wed, 04 May 2011 15:25:00 -0400<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxskmd0Wpx1r9rh29o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><div> <p>The Organisms are writing a new record.</p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825999594http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15825999594Wed, 04 May 2011 15:20:00 -0400<a href="http://www.last.fm/event/1915315+The+Lords+of+Altamont+at+Supermarkt+on+6+May+2011">The Lords of Altamont + Organisms at Supermarkt, Den Haag on 6 May 2011</a>: <div> <p>Location: Supermarkt</p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15826017296http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15826017296Wed, 20 Apr 2011 18:26:00 -0400<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxsn9emRcQ1r9rh29o1_400.png"/><br/><br/><div> <p>Listen to the Hot Hands EP on <a href="http://open.spotify.com/album/509adrvEHfsODa50NrznQO" title="Hot Hands on Spotify" target="_blank">Spotify</a></p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15827726658http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15827726658Tue, 19 Apr 2011 22:15:00 -0400hot handsspotify<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wZfAUTy5oQU?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><div> <p>Organisms, live at Clouso, Meppel.</p> </div>http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15827043724http://www.weareorganisms.com/post/15827043724Fri, 14 Jan 2011 12:10:00 -0500
