In the past years Taming the Shrew have found their way to themselves in a down-to-earth way without ever setting limits. With their genuine sound, the Regensburgers create a sparking fusion between old and new, between tried and tested and present, between blues-related rock music traditions of the 60s and 70s and fresh, untamed potential. Musically this fusion manifests itself in a warm organ carpet, which spreads its velvety wings to frame the earthy rhythm work and the genuine caprioles of guitar and especially vocals in a protective yet flexible way. On their new album 'Cure' the band presents themselves more grown than ever before. It's precisely this growth that can be heard on the eight warm and wonderfully dynamic numbers: Cure' is the consequent - not necessarily stringent - further development of their own sound, which is still based on organic bluesrock and subtle hippie and psychedelic flair, but unfolds more and more towards the front and openly embraces modern sounding elements instead of only reproducing itself backwards. In an opaque swamp of retro and conformism, Taming the Shrew already prove with their debut successor that they only sound like themselves, only speak their own language.
