Hi and welcome to BEHIND THE NOISE!

A few years ago I discovered Highly Suspect, a band that literally drew me in with their unique blend of blues, psychedelic and rock. Their very honest way of making music and at the same time simply following their passion has already attracted me with their first album "Mister Asylum"so enthusiastically that I also infected our whole mag with it. Then recently we received a message that I have been waiting for a long time: October promotion announced the tour "The Devils In The Detail" and offered a live coverage, which we accepted directly. When then also the question came in whether we wanted to have an interview with the band, the answer was also clear here: Hell yes!

A short time later came also already Highly Suspect to us and instead of only our announced interview partners Rich and Ryan to welcome were also Mark and Matt with us. The band was very accommodating, funny and among other things told us something about the creative process of the new album "Midnight Demon Club", with which band they would like to be on stage (#QueensOfTheStoneAge) and much more. You can watch the whole interview right here. At the end was Ryan so nice and gave me the cap from the group photo as a souvenir. At this point: Thank you so much! A good interview in the bag, now it was briefly eat something to be able to return strengthened to the concert. The time went faster than expected, so we were briefly back in the Luxor, this time directly in front of the stage to watch the first band.

characterizes two exceptional talents. It felt like being on a road trip through the woods, accompanied by the desire for an exciting adventure. Musically, the band was right on point and left even Jack, our photographer, speechless. But also lyrically the band tried to take the audience with them and stand by them no matter how they feel, where we can tell you at this point "Zero Fucks Giver" can recommend. The Picturebooks was a real experience that evening, which we definitely want to repeat. The guys are still on tour and might play one or two festivals near you. Check them out and don't miss them! During the break we visited Finn at the merchandise stand and spoke with the musician, who commutes with Philipp between Gütersloh and Los Angeles.

Too bad, because we wanted to show you more of the concert, but so I write in detail about what we saw: Highly Suspect seemed, according to our impression, to have missed the stage. The sweat ran quickly from their clothes, which were soaked after the time. With songs like "Lydia", "Bath Salts" or "Serotonia"The first pieces of the concert were intoned and it was immediately clear that this will be an unforgettable concert. Loudly the individual pieces were sung along by the audience, which was sometimes so loud that even the band could hardly be understood. Especially Matt you could see the joy, who completely spent himself on stage and still continued to use every inch he had to give full throttle. Also the other members like Ryan operated their instruments like crazy and hardly gave themselves time to catch their breath.

After an insane concert, there was already an encore of two songs that finally sealed the demolition and with "Pink Lullaby" sent the crowd into the evening.

When we went out into the cold evening air, the ambulance was also there, which treated a few of the people for whom the heat was too much. A circumstance that will hopefully be remedied at the upcoming concerts, as we know the location but certainly. We enjoyed the concert and look forward to telling you about the band's new album!
