Everybody
interested in movies and entertainment has heard off Cucky the
murderdoll. You know... this little cheak plastic figure with glossy
silver glimpse in it's artifical eye and this dirty grin, teaching every
behaved nun how to be horrofied, when killing everybody close. Well,
our Murderdolls here have not much in common with Chucky, but they
certainly do teach me to be horrofied tonight, though in a little
different way.
It took Joey Jordison and Wednesday 13 over 7 years
to dig their baby the murderdolls out of it's grave to once again transfer
themselves into many little chuckys. That's only what's up to the visuall aspect.
The, already released and second bible 'Women & Children Last' shows
even a 8 years gap to the debut 'Beyond The Valley Of The
Murderdolls'. Reasons are given with other jobs, whether it's Slipknot
or some solo efforts - however. But how is it said?: Blood is thicker than water .
that's what both major dollies must have thought. And here we go - the
way between sunny Californa to Iowa has quickly become a narrow bridge
from Garden Eden to the underworld, which is splattered with a
murder-fresh energy and even more Rock'n'Roll. We have waited long
enough, but now Chucky & Co are polishing his teeth, in the truest
sense of the word.
And the Murderdolls have stopped by, here in Munich at the Backstage
Halle, the second rendevouz on their european tour. We got 350 fans of
the sophisticated Horror-Punk, who again consist of 50 Slipknot freaks,
maybe 50 Wednesday 13 fans and about 250 screaming Hell brides. Wherebe
those ones have mainly attended the event to see their
absolute dream of sleepless nights - Joey Jordison. Holy shit, with such
an obvious luv, all these females here do show within our mausoleum, even
Brad Pitt and George Clooney would become jealous.
But
before the super gau of this hysteria reaches it's highpoint, swedish Melodic
Deathmetal heads Marionette are trying to heat the fire for the headliner.....
But
the mascerade in the beginning of their set rather reminds me of the
famous carneval in Venice, back in those times, when Casanova made
countless females happy, or better bonged them down. Well I don't think,
that's what's up to the intention of our young generation Metalband
from Scandinavia here. They rather go for acceptance of the audiance
on this tour trip. And mind me, Marionette are already going for 6 years
now, but only have one album (released in 2008) out so far. I presume
the fault for not beeing sooner over here, was this swimming free in their
home country Sweden. On the other hand Axel Widén, Mikael Medin, Anton Modig,
Aron Parmerud, Linus Johansson and Jimmy Olausson are still pretty young...
And they still have enough time to collect experience with learning by
doing. They are still fighting for more popularity. And this fight
includes jumps into the photopit to give the generell atmosphere a
special note. But this and the musical performance are not the main
problem, exspecially for singer Axel, who's name is not Joey Jordison.
And all those ladies here dressed in posh noir' let him feel this by
some not so nice ignorance. Shame, as these boys deserve a little more
attention than just a slight polite applause. - However for all fans of
this musical style who are still interested, many more infos about
Marionette can be found at:

The rather long break inbetween gives all these Claudia Schiffers of
Munichs underworld the chance to refresh their make up, just to make
sure, and then hoping to catch a glimpse from their fairytale prince from
up there on stage...
The
fatal thing about this is, that the Murderdolls apparently have a
similar intention what's up to make up. Because when storming the stage
within their first attack a whole bucket of white dust is spilled over
my head and my holy cameras. And here we are at this point, where I
mentioned in the beginning of this review, that I will get tought how to
be frightened. But there is no time for swearing and tearing and bone
shaking. Minutes develop to seconds, while we photographers are trying
to ban the Murderdolls on our SD cards. It just has become a little
harder because of a short blindness and cough because of the dust, and
the fact, they apparently have spilled at least 3 bottles of Chanel No 5
over them, apart from the artistic Dior eyeshades.
Halleluja, I truly don't wanna take an aroma bath right now. And apart
from that again, we got sort of a Take That aura in here in a miniformat.
And little Joey becomes an icon of the new beauty idol of Munich's lady
world.
Oh,
before I forget, our little party combo here, does not only consist of
frontman Wednesday 13 and Mr.Jordison only, who by they way does not sit
behind a drumkit in this band, but handles the six strings right front
of stage. (nice for all females) But up there are 3 more murderdolls
listening to the names Roman
Surman (Git) Jack
Tankersley (Bass) and Racci Shai
(Drums)
