LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: NEW MUSIC BY THE HAMBURG´S GOLDENE ZITRONEN. NEW MUSIC BY A GERMAN BAND WITHOUT A PRIVATE LIFE. IN THEIR ELEVEN YEAR HISTORY THE BAND HAS KEPT CANGING THE PERSPECTIVES FROM THEIR IRONIC „FUNPUNK“ BEGINNINGS OF THE 1987 DEBUT „ PORSCHE, GENSCHER, HALLO HSV“ TO THE WILDSTYLE RAUNCHY WILD BILLY CHILDISH PRODUCTION OF 1991 „PUNKROCK“ (RELEASED ON JETSET/ BIG CAT RECORDS IN 1995), TO 1994´S POLITICAL GARAGE, BEATHOMMAGE „ DAS BISSCHEN TOTSCHLAG“ (ON SUB UP RECORDS) WHICH HAS FINALLY BROUGHT THE „GOLDIES“ TO THE FOREFRONT OF GERMAN INDIE-ROCK. 

DEFINETELY NOT MADE FOR THE TAUT AND TAME; THEIR NEW SIXTH LP HAS REPLACED INTIMACY WITH FREEDOM AND FRESH SONGFORMS.

ADRESSING BOTH SIDES ON THE BORDERS OF PAIN (?) „ECONOMY CLASS“ IS SPEAKING ABOUT IMROVISATION. BEAR WITNESS TO THE „GOLDIES“ TREATMENT OF MISNATHROPIC NEW WAVE AND FREE JAZZ ELEMENTS, AND YOU HEAR THE BEST THING HAPPENING SINCE THE INVENTION OF SOUNDFILM.

LIKE GODARD´S WEEKEND IS SHOT ON LOCATION WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS NEXT DOOR. NOTHING REALLY SERIOUS.

THIS IS DAMMN SERIOUS, UNINTENTIONALLY.

TO LEARN FROM SINGER SCHORSCH KAMERUN MEANS LEARNING TO SING. CHECK OUT THESE GNARLY LYRICS ABOUT THE END OF THE GERMAN WELFARE STATE AND A FATHER, WHO IS NOT LISTENING.

LIKE REALITY NEVER HAPPENED. THIS IS FIN DE SIECLE MUSIC FROM ANOTHER PLANET.

RECORDED ON AN ANSWERING MACHINE.

IMAGINE THELONIOUS MONK ALONE IN SAN FRANCISCOS EARLY PUNK SCENE IN 1977.

„ECONOMY CLASS“ IS MADE PRACTICALLY WITHOUT „GOLDIES“ GUITARIST TED GAIERS GUITARS.

LOTS OF PIANO AND TEISCO ORGAN SOUNDS INSTEAD, DELIVERED BY THOMAS WENZEL. WELCOME TO GOLDIES NEWEST MEMEBER, INTERNATIONAL INDIE-EMPLOYEE HANS PLATZGUMER ON FUNKY REHAB BASE-GUITAR! AS ALWAYS, THE GOLDIES HAVE MR. ENNO PALUKA ON DRUMS. POUNDING THE BEAT OF EVERETT JR. AND DEUTSCH AMERIKANISCHE FREUNDSCHAFT.

ALSO ON BOARD, THOMAS MEINECKE AND WINFRIED PETZI AKA THE BRASS SECTION OF MUNICH´S FSK AND A STUNNING VOCALIST NAMED CLAUDIA BASRAWI ON THE CHOICE CUT „MUNICH“. THE NAME OF THE RECORD: „ECONOMY CLASS“. IT IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY SUB-UP RECORDS FROM MUNICH.

THE NAME OF THE BAND: DIE GOLDENEN ZITRONEN.

„ECONOMY CLASS“ IS THEIR MOST PERSONAL ALBUM UP TO DATE.
