Victory Of The Better Man
Real Name:
Harald Bernhard, UK Rattay, Sven Rossenbach, Florian Van Volxem
Profile:
'Victory Of The Better Man' was formed in 1988 in Cologne, Germany by the visual artist and singer Harald Bernhard, reeds and piano-player Martin Fredebeul, bass and keyboard-player Matthias Kratzenstein and guitarist UK Rattay.
They are an obscure German band that's somewhere between 'Aqsak Maboul' and 'Howard Devoto'. The music is very experimental but lyrical in spots, with a collage of sounds and textures strewn with totally dada, macaronic lyrics throughout.
New line-up from 2002 includes Harald, UK Rattay and new members: Sven Rossenbach (keys, reeds) and Florian Van Volxem (bass, guitar).
