    In winter 2017 THE WEIGHT released their long-awaited and widely acclaimed debut
    album – THE WEIGHT. During the next two years extensive touring made them known to a
    wider live audience throughout Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Hard work and slog
    refined the band’s stage performance, creating an atmosphere that established them as a
    highly praised live act and thus laid the foundation of a promising career. In retrospective
    this tour can be seen as a cornerstone of the band’s further development out of the
    charming small venues into a prosperous future.
    With their latest release LIVE TAPES the four musicians give a deep insight into their craft
    and creativity on stage. Moosbrugger’s bass is pumping and rumbling all over the place,
    Vetter is simply killing it on the drums and it remains a secret where Boebel got his riffs
    and licks from. Maybe Jussel, the frontman and singer, could tell but he is way too busy
    winning the audience in a moaning, invoking, almost operatic manner.
    Given the freedom from the studio and being striped down to their basic instrumentation
    THE WEIGHT’s songs reveal remarkable and valuable qualities you wouldn’t hear on an
    actual studio record. It’s (a)live baby!

lyrics

I was...
Back in LC
Hot on her heels
That's how I wove into that shabby shack

And the place was hot
So I gave it a shot
Without a chance to get my money back

And it's a strange, a strange, strange feeling
And money ain't, no it ain't for keeping

I was...
Thrown to the street
Got back on my feet
With all that liquor running through my brain...


Last thing I know
I took the blow
I felt our love was just in vain

And it's a strange, a strange, strange feeling
And money ain't, no it ain't for keeping

You don't see it coming
Out of the blue
You loose control
It's kind of true

Every time
You hit the nail
The blowback gives you
Such a thrill

And it's a strange, a strange, strange feeling
And money ain't, no it ain't for keeping
