About
Pommes statt Partyanekdoten, Slowlife statt Self Hate, Pop statt Produktivitätszwang. Mit ihrem dritten Album Slowlife und nach zahllosen Konzerten und Festivalshows im In- und Ausland legen Jolly Goods mit Slowlife eine fĂźr sich sprechende Bestandaufnahme und persĂśnliche Reflektion der Krisenhaftigkeit neoliberaler Gesellschaftsverhältnisse vor. Das Album ist musikalisches Empowerment, vor allem aber ein Plädoyer fĂźr Self-Care und die (Wieder-)entdeckung des emanzipatorischen Potenzials von Langsamkeit. Mehr denn je vermĂśgen es die Multiinstrumentalistinnen, ihren an Post-Punk, Riot Grrrl und Grunge geschulten frĂźhen Sound so zu erweitern, dass ein ganz eigener Klangkosmos entsteht. Mal ruft Slowlife den Shoegaze von Cocteau Twins oder auch Eurythmics zu âIn the Gardenâ-Zeiten ins Gedächtnis (âThe Misanthrope Yearsâ, âThe Moonâ), mal schlingern Tuba und Klavier um eine Surfgitarre herum (âHeavy Feetâ) oder schimmern EinflĂźsse von PJ Harvey oder Kate Bush auf. Auf den 10 neuen Songs twisten Sie einen Fluch aus Machtstrukturen, Traumata, Leistungsdruck und unendlich scheinender Wut mit sonnendurchfluteten Pop.

Fries instead of party anecdotes, Slowlife instead of Self Hate, Pop instead of Productivity. After countless concerts and festival shows in Germany and abroad, as well as collaborations with artists such as Peaches, Dirk von Lowtzow, and Hans Unstern, Jolly Goods presents Slowlife as a self-aware inventory and personal reflection on the crises of neo-liberal social dynamics. The album is musical empowerment, but above all a plea for self-care and the (re) discovery of the emancipatory potential of Slowness. More than ever, the multi-instrumentalists expand their early sound, which is steeped in post-punk, riot grrrl, and grunge, to create their very own sound cosmos. Sometimes Slowlife channels the Shoegaze of the Cocteau Twins or The Eurythmics of their In the Garden era (“The Misanthrope Years”, “The Moon”). Sometimes tuba and piano lurch around a surf guitar (“Heavy Feet”) or shimmering influences of PJ Harvey or Kate Bush. On these 10 new songs they twist a curse of power structures, traumas, pressure to perform and seemingly endless anger with pop music flooded with sunlight.
