| Maximilian Hecker - I'll Be A Virgin, I'll Be A Mountain (2006) Posted: 11 Mar 2009 09:07 AM PDT 2006 album from this Berlin Pop/Rock singer/songwriter features 11 tracks including 'Snow White', 'Your Stammering Kisses' and 'Messed-Up Girl'. Produced by Guy Sternberg. Orchestral arranging and conducting by Doron Burstein. A Berliner busker introduced in 2001 by 'Infinite Love Songs', an album of downtempo beat-borne lullabies, Maximilian Hecker is now on album four, an affair that tickles |
| Maximilian Hecker - Rose (2003) Posted: 11 Mar 2009 09:03 AM PDT Sophomore album for the German pop Casanova. 'Rose' is completely free of the 'classic Brit-Pop influences' as one could still hear them on the first album. Looking for comparisons you´d be tending more towards tracks by Sigur Ros, maybe also Simon and Garfunkel or even Suede. Maximilian has become more daring especially with his lyrics, very personal, exposed and denuding they´ve become, poetic |
| Maximilian Hecker - Lady Sleep (2005) Posted: 11 Mar 2009 08:59 AM PDT Review by James Christopher Monger from allmusic.comLady Sleep, the third full-length offering from German chamber pop balladeer Maximilian Hecker, is pure misery. Protagonists pine, grieve, and rage as they watch hope fade away through frosty windows of romantic failure like Elizabethan teenagers in love, pausing only to reflect on the inevitable relief provided by their eventual earthly demise. |
