iRock: Campaign Like Clockwork

posted in: Features • Rock

From Germany, that European country that brought us the Autobahn, Fairy Grottoes and David Hasselhoff, comes some of the freshest and most watched rock acts. With festivals like Haldern Pop, Wacken Open and Southside Festival, Germany offers a variety of music but is known for its contributions to rock, metal and, of course, techno. Now, you might not find the traditional rockers that we are accustomed to here in the US. In fact, many of these musicians fuse together various genres to give different groups of people something to hold onto because, when you’re a musician lost in a vast sea of talent, you need to find a way to have yourself stick out from the crowd. Luckily, OurStage is home to a German band does just that. This week’s iRock artist, Campaign Like Clockwork, hails from the land of Ludwig Van Beethoven and Rammstein.  CLC blurs the line of the conventional produced-to-the-max rock sound by blending some raw emotion with traditional rock and roll and a helping of modern indie dance rock. Below you’ll find a playlist of their tracks “We Are Hype,” “She’s Taking Me” and “Don’t Believe.” Also, check out their official music video for “We Are Hype,”(for all of you Generation DIY readers, this is a great example of a creative music video that will most certainly get you some buzz).

Without further ado, Campaign Like Clockwork!
