Biography

For more than a decade, the German Electro-Wave-Band Project Pitchfork delights thousands of fans worldwide with a unique mixture of danceable beats, breathtaking melodies and deep lyrics. With 10 albums, 6 eps, and more compilation appearances than you can shake a stick at, Project Pitchfork have reached the status of “masters of electro-goth music”.

Since 1994 every album released by the band entered the Official German Charts, and they have been nominated twice for an Echo Award. In 2002, the french director Jérôme de Missolz was so fascinated by Project Pitchfork’s music, performance and philosophy, that he featured the band in his movie “Zone Reptile”.

Besides a 12 minutes concert footage shot especially for the film, the music of Project Pitchfork is present throughout the whole motion picture. The lyrics of the songs are often used to express the main character’s emotional inner world, becoming an important part of the story-telling process.
The band is also very famous for their energy and intensity on stage: their live-shows are known to be legendary. They toured extensively and played hundreds of shows all over the world, exciting the crowds in countries like Canada, Brazil, Argentina, the United States of America, Norway, Sweden, England, Belgium, The Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Italy, Greece, France, Latvia, The Russian Federation, Austria, Switzerland and, of course, Germany.

    If you like Pitch-Black, you'll love "Midnight Moon Misery" too. One of the best songs I've heard in a long time.

    they made a twist in style after Inferno, and they continuing to cherish it with Black. can't say I'm happy about it cause I'm a '97-'02 period fan, but I thank the universe for every new song they make. Unfortunately, in my opinion, Black is not as good as CR, but still nice.

    Project Pitchfork and I parted some time ago, but with the new album I definitely will give them another chance.
