THE NOTWIST PLOT FALL TOUR

The Notwist will be touring this fall in support of The Devil, You, + Me, their first album since 2002’s Neon Golden. Following several European dates, the enigmatic German trio will make their first North American stop in Canada and continue through October, including shows at New York’s Webster Hall and Los Angeles’ Henry Fonda Theatre.

The Devil, You, + Me is an album driven by an individual and collective restlessness, something that manifests itself both in the endlessly inventive musical construction and the submerged lyrical narrative that hits you from the astonishing opening "Good Lies" all the way through to the fragile end-piece "Gone Gone Gone". The lyrics explore a world of uneasy being, structured like incantations formed to ward off the inescapable cycle of life and death, falling back on archetypes, religion, God and the devil himself.

“Even after a six-year siesta, the Notwist's approach to pop music-- exploiting both its formal properties and endless possibilities-- is no less captivating and visionary than before.”Pitchfork
