Biografia

MESSER CHUPS: ZOMBIERELLA bass OLEG GITARACULA voce e chitarra BORIS ISRAEL drummer da San Pietroburgo, Russia. ...immaginate di avere un enorme shake ed infilarci dentro: CRAMPS, SUICIDE, KRAFTWERK, ELVIS, DICK DALE e una bella dose di immagini di B-MOVIE horror e fetish.... non solo concerto, ma anche immagini.. questo è quello che propongono MESSER CHUPS. Immagini chiare e dirette, musica semplice ma affascinante MESSER CHUPS are - Oleg Gitaracula on guitar, Zombierella on bass-guitar, and Boris Israel (from Los Twang! Marvels) on drums. The band is in a better form than ever, the last shows in full venues proved that their popularity is growing. Wonderful Zombierella is singing now, and she does it very sexy. And a new Chilean drummer brought more dynamic and show elements in their performance. Watch video from a new show http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mznVVRHbsN4 (more links on video below). The show is combined with visual collages from 30es-70es horror, erotic, trash, sci-fi,b-movies. The trashy sci-fi horror sound of Messer Chups is not very common within the context of Russian rock music. The majority of Messer Chups' musical and visual aesthetics come from trashy western pop-culture of the past century. This includes horror/sci-fi b-movies from 1930's through 1970's, as well as music such as surf (The Ventures, Dick Dale, Trashmen), big-band lounge (Henry Mancini, Les Baxter, Martin Denny) and rock n' roll of the 60's. Since the Ipecac release, Messer Chups has slowly developed a cult following around the world as one of the most unique and genre-defiant bands. Messer Chups is the project of Russian composer Oleg Gitarkin, and while the band’s instrumental rock is hard to neatly categorize, it’s safe to say that it would be enjoyed by fans of rockabilly, horror punk, scratchy surf records, Italian slasher films, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, pulp fiction, lounge music, Ed Wood, the theremin, the Cramps, Russ Meyer movies.” Gitarkin incorporates all of these elements and more, layering samples from Russian B-movies over weird vintage keyboard chirps and groovy horn loops. Messer Chups have already released over a half dozen albums and a greatest hits collection, which is a little extreme unless you’re a diehard fan of this kind of stuff. www.graveconcernsezine.com Gitarkin formed Messer Chups in 1998 during an extended stay in Hamburg. The original lineup was Gitarkin on bass and Annette Schneider, a German music promoter, on synths. Though amicable enough, this lineup did not work as Gitarkin and Schneider lived in different countries, leading to hellish logistics. In 1999, Gitarkin returned to St. Petersburg and found a keyboard player in Igor Vdovin, former vocalist for the band Leningrad. They toured as a duo in Russia and the United States in 2000-02. In 2003 a world-famous theremin player Lydia Kavina joined the band. She is the grandniece of Leon Theremin, the Russian inventor of the theremin, an instrument whose ghostly waw was a fixture in horror movies of the 1940s and '50s. Oleg and Lydia released together CD's – Black Black Magic , Vamp Babes Upgrade Version. Lydia participated on few tracks of most famous through licensed to Mike Patton's IPECAC Recordings album "Crazy Price". Zombie Girl came to the band in 2004. The founder of the project Oleg Gitarkin, is one of the most talented modern Russian composers, who became famous with his another project MESSER FUR FRAU MULLER in Russia and abroad. He is also making music for movies, theater, and adverts.
