Crash:Conspiracy [ger] - Protester (2010)
http://www.crash-conspiracy.de/
http://www.facebook.com/pages/CrashConspiracy/151853871516788
http://www.alpha07.de/


*Crash:Conspiracy ist eine Band, die es gleich zweimal gibt: es ist eine Band, die als Idee funktioniert. Ihre Mitglieder sind Figuren aus einer düsteren Zukunftsvision aus dem Jahr 2017. Die Waffen des Überwachungsstaats sind aufgefahren, Desinformation und Angstpropaganda münden in Verschwörungstheorien und Gleichgültigkeit. crash:consiracy und ihr Frontmann Ino Control dagegen sind real. Ihre Fans haben sich von ihrer Existenz überzeugt und sie wissen, dass crash:conspiracy über Dinge sprechen, von denen andere schweigen.
Crash:Conspiracy ist aber auch die neue Band von Ex-Blackmail-Sänger Aydo Abay. Sie veröffentlicht eine Platte, die man schon heute hören kann, sie gibt Konzerte, die man demnächst besuchen kann. Sie existiert quasi sieben Jahre im Voraus. Das Debütalbum von crash:conspiracy heißt “< >” und ist am 12.11.2010 via IME Records / Rough Trade erschienen. Die Band basiert auf dem multimedialen fiktionalen Projekt “Alpha 0.7 – Der Feind in Dir”, einer sechsteiligen Fernsehserie vom SWR..
