Controllar is an American/Israeli electronic rock trio based in Amsterdam. Lead by Anat Spiegel's unconventional vocals, Controllar's music evokes shards of electro-noise swallowed by punk beats. The band members are punk drummer brother Gur Spiegel, computer wizard bassist Thomas Myrmel, and vocal artist guitarist sister Anat Spiegel. The wicked tapestry of art pop, psycho-rock and punk forms the extension of Anat's wild and uncompromising vocals- echoing in the halls of Bjork and PJ Harvey.
Controllar is known for their stunning stage presence, and was described by the Netherlands most popular music website (3voor12) as something
"you absolutely have to see live!"
The band has toured the USA multiple times, as well as Spain, Portugal, Germany, Norway, Netherlands, Belgium and Japan. They appeared in festivals such as Innersound (Bucharest) and venues like Le Poisson Rouge (NYC) , Levontin7 (Tel Aviv) , Revolver (Oslo) & Concertgebouw (Amsterdam).
Electric Litany
The band rises from the ashes of a lo-fi world, carrying a lyricism and a characteristic "haunting" atmosphere that make Electric Litany a unique experience to watch.
Since forming in 2007, Electric Litany has evolved from a post rock, lo-fi indie band into something less conventional by today's musical standards. In 2013 the band worked on their second album 'enduring days you will overcome' with renowned producer Alan Parsons who admired the bands unique approach to song writing and instrumentation, and the album was released in early 2014
"A canvas of orchestral indie krautrock an entrancing opportunity to delve into their dark and sinister world" , The Line Of Best Fit!!
"Bleak and broody music has never been quite so thrilling." The Alliance Pact via The Guardian
"The songs and style had an instant and uncanny appeal to me, they are unlike anything anyone has ever heard. I am convinced that Electric Litany have the potential to lead the next new wave in rock music" Alan Parsons
