S.Y.P.H.

A cult band within their local Germany and much more obscure to all of those other world, S.Con.P.H. are comparable to Blurt, the Fall, Cable, the Plastic Folks of the World, and various other long-running works who influence rock and roll from its extremely fringes. Shaped in the town of Solingen in 1977 by Peter “Harry Handbag” Braatz, Uwe Jahnke, and Thomas Schwebel, the band’s name wasn’t originally an acronym. It had been soon transformed and supposedly stood for “Smashed Yankee Pummels Homo,” although different explanations will be given over time. In 1979 their debut one, “Viel Feind, Viel Her,” made an appearance and was implemented a year afterwards with the full-length S.Con.P.H. (Hello towards the Mipau). The experimental advantage displayed on the punkish debut will be explored additional on the second record of 1980, PST, that was made by Can member Holger Czukay. After Schwebel still left to become listed on Die Fehlfarben, the music group made an appearance on Czukay’s record On the path to the Top of Regular before falling aside. The entire year 1981 would still visit a flurry of produces as Braatz unloaded the vaults and released two albums of unheard materials and something live collection. Braatz and Jahnke re-formed the music group in 1982 and released Harbeitslose, an record filled up with sprawling, free-form parts and post-punk tracks. They split once again immediately after its discharge, and then re-form in 1985 for the amazingly accessible, synthesizer-based record Wieleicht. Just 2 yrs later the music group did an entire turnaround using the guitar-driven Am Rhein, a brittle work that closed having a almost 16-minute avant-reggae track. After a silent period they reappeared in 1993 with Rot, Geld, Blau, after that instantly announced another separation. That one would last until 2004, when Braatz and Jahnke came back with an appearance around the Fall tribute record Perverted by Tag E. The full-length -1 implemented in 2006 along with an appearance in the tribute record Silver Monk Period: A Tribute towards the Monks. Relatively representative of the band’s progression from punk, S.Con.P.H. today stood for “SAVE YOUR VALUABLE Pretty Hearts.”
