CLAWFINGER are back – 25 years after their successful album „Deaf Dumb Blind“ the scandinavians are hitting the road again – to play the album in it’s entirety.
They are considered to be genre pioneers. With their debut album „Deaf Dumb Blind“, they created a unique mixture of Metal, Rap and electronic music. In 1993 CLAWFINGER gained world wide success. The album contains hits such as „Nigger“, „The Truth“ and „Warfair“ and is still considered a trend-setting milestone. Not only music-wise, but also because of the lyrics. Their lyrics are socially aware and sharply formulated, unfotunately alot of the topics are still as relevent now as when they were written. CLAWFINGER are still speaking for a whole generation. This year „Deaf Dumb Blind“ celebrates its 25th anniversary.
In the fall CLAWFINGER are hitting the road for their „Deafer Dumber Blinder“-tour. Fans will get to see the full album played!
So after several years of silence CLAWFINGER are back with a real highlight. "We took a quick coffee break and all of a sudden 25 years had passed since we released our debut album: Deaf Dumb Blind“, singer Zak Tell says. "If that's not a reason to celebrate then nothing is so we've decided to do a few exclusive club shows in some of our favourite cities. The plan is simply to play the album in it's entirety, from beginning to end and then some. So, if you want to see a bunch of middle-aged men playing music they made when they were still young then please feel free to join in on the fun. Our party is your party and we couldn't do it without you.“
With no new song material for over ten years CLAWFINGER returned last year with „Save Our Souls“. The song is a vicious attack on Trumpism and how people like him are turning the world into a heartless, egotistical cesspool“. Building walls and shutting people out is not the solution to the worlds problems. Not much has changed for the better in the 25 years since their debut was released so Clawfingers music and lyrics are still as relevant and as neccessary as ever.
And talking about the USA: upfront to the „Deafer Dumber Blinder“ tour a single/video is being released: „Get It“. This B-side replaced ”Nigger” on the American version of the album 25 years ago because the American record company were afraid to include „Nigger“.
And if you look at the state of the world, the tour motto „Deafer Dumber Blinder“ surely is not an understatement, but a very true statement instead…
"Get It" is part of the "Deafer Dumber Blinder - 20 Years Anniversary Box and replaced ”Nigger” on the American version of the album 25 years ago because the American record company were afraid to include „Nigger“.
