'Die Kerzen' (French for 'The Candles') are the new German pop sensation. Their pop concept revolves around Dream Pop, Blue Eyed Soul, and New Romantic styles. 'Fizzy Blizz', 'Die Katze', 'Jelly Del Monaco' and 'Super Luci' have absorbed the history of pop, from the jukebox to the cloud.What distinguishes 'Die Kerzen' from their funky self-produced new-pop creations are their sharp lyrics, balancing cool knowledge and provincial German pop vocabulary. On Helmut Kraus's record cover painting (known for his cover art for Andreas Dorau's 'Der Mann'), we see the band 'Die Kerzen' lounging on a leather sofa like a bulimia observer. As representatives of their generation, the author Michele Serra affectionately called them 'The Liars' ('Die Liegenden') in his eponymous novel.Soon, their own fashion line will follow alongside their music industry ventures. After all, Jelly Del Monaco is not only a musician but also a fashion designer.
