English - short band info: IGUANA: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Their outstanding and unusual sound, influenced by Doom and Blues structures, Desert-Fuzz-Rock, Noise as well as Psychedelic at its best, makes the band to weirdoes on every stage. The four musicians (Bass, Drum, Vox, Gits) know their stuff and create an off- mainstream sound that is far away from copying heroes. Instead, it is a unique and first-rate sound providing complex song structures.
Iguana have already had 120 gigs in Europe, for instance at the renowned ‘Stoned From The Underground’-festival and Void-Fest, as support for SAINT VITUS, BRANT BJORK, COLOUR HAZE, KADAVAR, DOZER or THE ATOMIC BITCHWAX. Moreover, they have toured with LOS NATAS and recently with SAMSARA BLUES EXPERIMENT. Thus, the band has firmly established in the ‘first class of German Heavy-Rockers’ (generated-x). Not just old hand doom legend Wino Weinrich knows that these boys are killer. Look forward to the sound of former desert sessions along with instrumental gimmickries and doom attacks yet charmingly and a little crazily wrapped up.

English press commentaries on the Iguana-Album „Get The City Love You“(LP 2012): ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Visions is really keen on it and says: “Iguana offer with ‘Get The City Love You’ Desert Rock at its best.” The online magazine Laut.de praises Iguana and thinks that it is beyond question that they already have the invitation for the next Desert Sessions under their belt. Beatblogger compares it as follows: “As if Blur covers Kyuss […] just finest rock music. “ Motor.de writes that Iguana’s style is a mix of classic Desert-Rock blended with experiments and gimmicks. Last but not least, Ox-Fanzine praises the new LP by saying that “they could easily compete with Neo-Stoner bands such as Deville, Dozer or Red Fang.”
English: Here’s some information on the new album: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “IGUANA released their new double vinyl at the end of June (at Sweethomerecords, Broken Silence) and have gradually moved their style from classic Stoner-Rock to a distinct Desert-Session-Psychedelic-Rock. „Get The City Love You” provides old-school Desert Rock – rough, psychedelic, melodious, but, above all, multi-faceted. The 10 songs represent different tunes in finest Desert-Sessions without even relating to any desert-clichés: sometimes instrumental, sometimes just straight, and then laid-back again. Somewhere between Doom, Psychedelic, Noise and the Desert Sessions, but, with a twinkle in the eye, it reminds us of Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd as well as Saint Vitus, The Black Keys, Qotsa and Soundgarden."
