LAZY GIANTS ( ex TOILING MIDGETS)
Clouds Hill / Post Punk, Noise, Indie
Starting out 1979 in San Francisco, the Toiling Midgets were booked as support for the Sex Pistols,
played with the Ramones and their fans include
scene greats who, next to others, shaped the sound
of Nirvana. Five records and the legacy of having
shaped a whole movement.
Now a new name, new record and new energy. The
band around Craig Gray, Paul Hood and Daniel
Cerny knows how to captivate.
Current Album: Toiling Days Are Over
An excuse for a hurtful name and the manifestation
of a new beginning: The album, released
October 13, 2023 on the german label Clouds Hill,
was recorded in studios in Germany, Canada and the
US. Hypnotizing guitars, excentric sound scapes and
musical spheres allowing glimpses in the past yet at
the same time clearly showing the new chapter the
band has opened.
„I can‘t not play. It‘s my life, I have to do it to
survive. To keep things going by writing and
playing and (...) broaden our horizons as much
as possible.“
Craig Gray in interview with ntv
l.t.r. Alex Prete, Paul Hood, Daniel Cerny, CraigGray
„(...) „Toiling Days Are Over“ - a bold and creative
statement of a band who reinvented themselves
without losing their identy. With a striking mix of
intensity and innovation Lazy Giants prove that after
all these years they are still able to create relevant
and captivating music.“

New Music
While the band have just finished their US West Coast Tour
set in September 2024, they are now busy working on their
next record. What‘s coming is testing the boundaries of
Post Punk - cinematic highlights and vocals that bring alive
the memory of late Toiling Midgets legend Ricky Williams:
Unique and not to be missed.

BERLINER LVFT
Formed in Berlin’s underground in late 2022, Berliner Lvft is a four-piece outfit
delivering a blistering take on noise-rock and post-punk. Influenced by titans like
Fugazi, Sonic Youth, and U.S. Maple, Berliner Lvft’s music rides the line between
earworm melodies and raw, jittery energy. Their sound is steeped in dissonant,
feedback-laden guitars and cutthroat punk rhythms, creating a darkly exhilarating
listening experience. Berliner Lvft isn’t just here to play music—they’re here to
dissect it.
Their lyrics tackle heavy themes—pain, anxiety, addiction, and the search for
meaning—with a dose of dark humor and sharp sarcasm. Inspired by thinkers like Kafka
and Sartre, Berliner Lvft critiques the superficiality of modern society and reflects
a genuine concern for humanity’s future. They mix raw emotion with biting
observations, keeping their storytelling complex yet relatable.
Berliner Lvft has already built a local reputation for their high-energy live shows
and uncompromising approach to their music. For the underground scene, Lvft brings a
fresh breath of intensity and authenticity that’s hard to ignore
