Live recordings from the band's studio, the Alien Research Center, during lockdown times in 2021.
The Notwist
, centered around the core trio of
Cico Beck
and the
Acher
brothers
Markus
and
Micha
, usually takes its studio recordings as a mere starting point for their live performances, considering them to be possibilities that need to be explored further. This is especially true for
Vertigo Days - Live from Alien Research Center
, a live record made under unusual circumstances. The band members rearranged songs from their ambitious 2021 album
Vertigo Days
(MORR 180CD/LP/SUN-LP) in their studio in Weilheim to record and film a special performance. The songs took on a new life, becoming more psychedelic and intense when rearranged into a spontaneous, krautrock-esque collage.
Vertigo Days
was meant to transcend the conventional notion of a band as well as the creative and geographic boundaries inscribed into that concept. And even though life had other plans, this is precisely what the album did when it was released to both commercial success and critical acclaim in early 2021. Contributions by
Tenniscoats
singer
Saya
,
Angel Bat Dawid
,
Ben LaMar Gay
,
Juana Molina
, among others, as well as new member
Theresa Loibl
on bass clarinet, harmonium, and keyboard, expanded the band's sonic palette, stylistic range, and even lyrical focus through the addition of different instruments, artistic approaches, and languages. All of that was missing when the band retreated to their studio -- dubbed Alien Research Center in response to, and in spite of, a nearby church called Christian Outreach Center -- to further explore the possibilities of the source material.
Vertigo Days - Live from Alien Research Center
is at once a snapshot of a certain moment in the band's history and the quintessential Notwist live record: a unique performance that both explores the untapped potential of the
Vertigo Days
studio recordings while also serving as an inspiration for upcoming live shows. As with the studio album, the artwork for
Vertigo Days - Live from Alien Research Center
features photographs by Japanese artist
Lieko Shiga
, taken in the '00s.
