I've seen them a few times already, however Bilderbuch have changed again as a (live) band and are now more united, have more power, more instruments, more touring, more Krautrock, more guitar solos, more percussion, More vibes, more skin, more visuals, more jaws, more sticky drinks on the soles of your feet, more merch stand recordings, and more tour dates this year!

Only the guitarist's hat remains the same size and thin and is a reminder of a perfect concert a few years ago. Otherwise, you can just say: This was my first comic book concert. This evening, you have to tip your imaginative hat to those who have invested their brainpower in the visual images in this round. Every image and video on the screen surrounding the band on stage like a fence is an artistic complement to the songs heard.

Huts, fires, streets, lights, facades, whole rainbows, or the faces of band members. Gorgeous visuals lurk above the band's sweaty silhouette and take the audience – whether front row or back row – on this soft power trip for the picture-perfect 2024 era. Open your eyes or close your eyes, it doesn't matter what order you tune in: the main thing is to be there from the beginning to the last appearance.
