Die Roten Punkte - Rock!Le Cascadeur20 Feb - 7 Mar (excl. 1 Mar) at 11.15pm Tickets $25 (Conc & Tue $20 / Preview 20 - 21 Feb $15) A hilariously absurd indie-rock odyssey. Die Roten Punkte (The Red Dots) are the Prinz and Prinzessin of Berlin’s underground rock scene. Following sell-out shows in New York, Montreal and Edinburgh, dysfunctional siblings Otto and Astrid Rot have returned to Australia to play songs from their eagerly anticipated third album, "KUNST ROCK (ART ROCK)". Things have not always been easy for the Rots. Finding themselves orphaned as youngsters, Astrid and Otto dove into a rock baptism by fire (started by one of Astrid’s cigarettes). Born-again as Die Roten Punkte, the duo was catapulted into European stardom. Described as “a lipstick-smeared, tantrum-loving, sonic collision between the B52s, Kraftwerk and the early Ramones”, Die Roten Punkte are truly one of a kind. Astrid’s avant-garde style and legendary stage antics inspire both reverence and fear, while Otto’s dynamic stage presence brings to mind a whirling dervish on meth. With a string of awards notched into their studded belts, this counter-culture rock duo has reached the pinnacle of their artistry. They are art rock incarnate. Die Roten Punkte – ROCK! is one of the most irreverent and funny gigs you are ever likely to see.
