B.O.T.

B.O.T. ( http://www.botband.nl/home ) is a band from the nothern town Groningen in the Netherlands. The perfect mix of complicated music, simplicity and humor lead to banal nonsense (banale onzin in Dutch). Enjoying the music is a mind expanding therapy for anyone that wants to think (and keep thinking) outside the box. In which musical box should we place B.O.T.? They describe their music as crazy freak rock, freak of the 70’s rock with a new flavor. Anyway, anything is allowed and no border too far. The songs are multilingual: Dutch, English, French, German, Brusnavskic and Arabic.
