The Notwist are a German indie rock band.〔() 〕 Formed in 1989, the band moved through several musical incarnations despite maintaining a relatively stable line-up. While their early records moved through heavy metal into dark indie rock, their recent efforts for which they have received the most attention have been strongly influenced by the electronica scene, along with the other groups on the record label Morr Music. == History == The Acher brothers and Messerschmid formed the group in 1989 in Weilheim in Oberbayern, near Munich. In 1990 they recorded their self-titled debut, a grunge-metal oriented LP. 1992 saw the release of ''Nook'', which has an indie rock sound, while their 1995 album ''12'' contains their first flirtation with electronics. Martin Gretschmann then joined the group in 1997. ''Shrink'', released in 1998, is a jazz-electro-rock album. In 1998 Cynthia Dall did the vocals for a remix of "Torture Day" by The Notwist. The album ''Neon Golden'' (released in 2002) put them on the map for American listeners, with its heartfelt sentiment and more pop-oriented sound. Messerschmidt left the group in 2007 and was replaced by Andi Haberl. The band's sixth full-length record, ''The Devil, You + Me'', was released in Europe in May 2008.〔Thiessen, Brock.("The Demonic Minds of the Notwist" ), ''Exclaim!'', July 2008.〕 On June 17, 2008 the album was released in North America on Domino Records. In 2009 they recorded ''Storm'', a soundtrack to the film of the same name from Hans-Christian Schmid. In late 2012 they began playing songs from a new album on tour.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MAIFELD DERBY MANNHEIM: FESTIVAL-TICKETS ZU GEWINNEN )〕 The album, ''Close to the Glass'', was released on February 24, 2014 under Sub Pop Records 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Notwist Announce New Album ''Close to the Glass'', Share Title Track )〕 In January 2015, ''Close to the Glass'' was nominated for IMPALA's European Independent Album of the Year Award.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.impalamusic.org/node/346 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Notwist」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
