Vertigo Days – LIVE FROM ALIEN RESEARCH CENTER

A Notwist concert is a Notwist concert is a Notwist concert. The band 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” 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 – 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.
