„Die meisten Vögel ziehen über den Winter in wärmere Gefilde. Der Sperling bleibt und harrt aus, bis es wieder wärmer wird.“
Alle Menschen müssen ihren Weg finden – aber wie, wenn man das Ziel gar nicht kennt? Sperling mischen Rap mit Post-Hardcore und einem Cello. Mal traurig und melancholisch, mal träumend und wütend. Die wortgewandten Texte zusammen mit den atmosphärischen Instrumentals ergeben eine ungewöhnliche Mischung – manchmal leise, manchmal nicht.
Dominierte auf dem ersten Album „Zweifel“ zunächst noch Systemkritik und der Blick nach außen, hört man nun viel öfter das Wort „Ich“ anstatt „Du“. Sperling haben dabei nicht aufgehört, über die Schrecken der Welt zu sprechen. Ihre neuen Songs erkennen aber, dass Achtsamkeit auf sich selbst jetzt umso stärker geboten ist.
„Ich habe lange versucht, vor meinen Problemen davonzulaufen oder wenigstens andere dafür verantwortlich machen zu können. Aber irgendwann habe ich gemerkt, dass man vor seinen Dämonen nicht wegrennen kann. Erst aus der Auseinandersetzung kann man neue Hoffnung gewinnen.“ _Jojo
Aus dieser Perspektive der Selbstreflektion betrachtet schreibt das Hunsrücker Quartett auf ihrer zweiten Platte „Menschen wie mir verzeiht man die Welt oder hasst sie“ tiefblickende Songs, die zwischen sensitiven Reverb-Gitarrenmeeren, beatlastigem Indie und frustrierter Klanggewalt ein emotionales Panorama innerer Orientierungslosigkeit schaffen.
„Auf unserem ersten Album haben wir viel beschrieben, wie schlecht sich alles anfühlt. Das hat sich für mich geändert. Ich habe immer noch oft das Gefühl des Scheiterns, kann daraus aber inzwischen viel mehr für mich mitnehmen. Ich sehe zum Beispiel immer erstmal den nächsten Schritt vor mir und nicht gleich das Ende.“_Jojo
Sperling liefern keine Antwort darauf, wie die ungewisse Zukunft denn nun aussehen soll. Wie könnten sie auch? Und doch geben sie einem in ihrer Verzweiflung stets das Gefühl, mit all dem zumindest nicht allein zu sein.
„Hoffnung in Zeiten der Hoffnungslosigkeit“ – Fuze

„Eine schonungslose Platte, die aufs eigene Gemüt zoomt und solange draufhält, bis all die Fragen gestellt sind, die einem den Schlaf rauben.“ – Visions
Besetzung Sperling

Luca Gilles – Cello
Joshua Heitzer – Schlagzeug
Einlass: 19:00 Uhr
“The majority of birds migrate to warmer regions during the winter. The sparrow stays and endures until it warms up again.”
All people must find their own way – but how, when you don’t even know the destination? Sperling mixes rap with post-hardcore and a cello. Sometimes sad and melancholic, sometimes dreamlike and angry. The eloquent lyrics combined with the atmospheric instrumentals create an unusual blend – sometimes quiet, sometimes not.
While the first album “Zweifel” initially focused on social criticism and looking outward, the word “I” is now heard much more often instead of “you.” Sperling has not stopped talking about the horrors of the world. Their new songs recognize, however, that mindfulness towards oneself is now all the more necessary.
“I tried for a long time to run away from my problems or at least to blame others for them. But at some point, I realized that you can’t run away from your demons. Only from dealing with them can you gain new hope.” _Jojo
From this perspective of self-reflection, the Hunsrück quartet writes on their second album “Menschen wie mir verzeiht man die Welt oder hasst sie” profound songs that create an emotional panorama of inner disorientation between sensitive reverb guitar seas, beat-driven indie, and frustrated sonic power.
“On our first album, we described how bad everything feels. That has changed for me. I still often feel the sense of failure, but I can take much more from it for myself now. For example, I always see the next step in front of me first and not immediately the end.” _Jojo
Sperling does not provide an answer to what the uncertain future should look like. How could they? And yet, they always give one the feeling, in their despair, that one is at least not alone with all of this.
“Hope in times of hopelessness” – Fuze
“Organic, urgent, and honest in every second.” – Gitarre & Bass
“A ruthless album that zooms in on one’s own feelings and holds it there until all the questions are asked that rob you of sleep.” – Visions
Line-up Sperling
Johannes Gauch – Vocals/Bass
Malte Pink – Guitar
Luca Gilles – Cello
Joshua Heitzer – Drums
