Biography
Die Clatterschenkenfietermaus are underrated. Karl Gunter and Karl Karl met after Karl Gunter witnessed Karl Karl’s previous band, Das Neue Pain, on stage in Bremen. He was particularly impressed with the way that Karl Karl punched a nun live on stage.

After the almost immediate demise of Das Neue Pain, due to ‘hair issues’, Die Clatterschenkenfietermaus were formed. Exploring topics such as chasing grannies until they fall over, dead clowns, and relaxation techniques, Die Clatterschenkenfietermaus feel that there is no topic they cannot cover in their inimitable style.

They are also consummate artists and have recently had a piece ejected from a gallery in Milton Keynes, mainly because it did not exist in the first place.

In 2005 Die Clatterschenkenfietermaus wowed Edinburgh with their debut show. Audiences were subjected to humiliation, trauma and future depression. The press went wild and said nice things such as 'their post-post-industrial despair rock makes Kraftwerk sound like Girls Aloud' (The Scotsman) and accusing them of 'moments of dark brilliance' (Metro). Invitations to appear on Dutch TV and a nomination for North West Comedy Awards Breakthough Act 2005 followed and both Karls are now unbearable.
