Surfaced by almighty blogger & sound digger Nicolas<\/strong> (who happens to run Camel & Lions<\/a>) we introducde to you, relatively welcoming, fair and adoring French citizens the goodness and simple awesomeness that is the whole album \u2018Body Pressure\u2019 from German outfit\u00a0PTTRNS.<\/strong><\/p>\n

PTTRNS<\/strong> are Benjamin Riedl, Daniel Mertens and Patrick Hohlweck. They got together to play tunes in the summer of 2006, when Daniel returned from a 10 month hot air balloon tour of the UK, while Benjamin and Patrick where living together in a mouldy house in Cologne. The three of them had met through shows they had set up for each other\u2019s respective former bands, and shared a common enthusiasm for American Fighter with Michael Dudikoff and improvisational dance.<\/p>\n

PTTRNS<\/strong> play angular and rhythmic punk rock songs, which are sung by all. Their first releases were a quickly sold out self titled cassette on their own Ursa Minor Musik label, as well as their vinyl debut; seven inches of plastic, possibly partly about people they adore, called \u2018People I Adore\u2019, on UMM and Altin Village & Mine.<\/p>\n
