As Pretty As A Picture 04:27
lyrics
She is sniffing around me but I do as if I cannot see her My heart melts I go off my head She catches my eyes and I catch hers She's as pretty as a picture She's as pretty as an angel She's as pretty as a picture She's as pretty as an angel I never really looked for love I thought I could do without it Now it's time to go straight to the point or I'll be sorry 'till the end My heart melts I go off my head She's as pretty as a picture She's as pretty as an angel She's as pretty as a picture She's so pretty, she's my angel

Hit The Road 04:55
lyrics
I wanna hit the road in the springtime and see the countryside come out of its sleep I wanna hit the road an see the countryside I wanna hit the road in the summer when the flowers are in bloom and the cities are too warm so people leave it for some cooler places where they can rest 'till it's over I wanna hit the road in the fall with my banjo and a suitcase and sing what I have seen I wanna hit the road Going to the eastern countries where it's so cold outside but in the bars, the audience is hot and the booze flows there I will dance all night long and I will sing this song there I will dance all night long and I will sing this song I wanna hit the road oh let me hit the road I need to see what happens over there to see how people react to the music oh let me hit the road My faith needs to be flaired up again yeah, the fire must be poked I wanna hit the road there I will dance all night long and I will sing this song there I will dance all night long and I will sing this song I wanna hit the road

Our Seperate Ways 04:56
lyrics
We were both standing on the road wondering which way to go Will we go our seperate ways I can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it It's not that things screwed up between us we were such a cheerful crew can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it we went through a hard time but we always get over it now we're both standing on the road wondering which way to go Will we go our seperate ways I can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it can't bring myself to do it

Summer Journey 02:57
lyrics
With the guies during the summer holidays we took our bikes and went for a ride we covered a distance of several miles with a precise aim in mind we wanted to see the girls during the way we wondered are we going to be welcome are they going to be there for us and then we arrived so the charming dance and the serenade could start may the best man win... a kiss none of us really made its choice so the situation was so confused that we came back empty handed still we were full of hope and the next time could be the good one

It Is So Quiet 09:07
lyrics
There is no need to hurry the falling snow is kissing my lips so softly There is no need to hurry I follow your footprints no you won't run away from me The fields look like clouds The nature seems to admire its peaceful state It is so quiet

Who Is That Boy ? 01:45
lyrics
Who is that boy you talked to yesterday night I'm sure not to know him I surely do not you seemed to have fun yeah, to have a good time Who is that boy you talked to yesterday night Where did you go yesterday night I've been looking for you everywhere around I asked everybody but no one could tell me Where did you go yesterday night Winning smiles and kwowing glances on your friends faces I just can't stand it anymore, it makes me sick Winning smiles and kwowing glances on your friends faces I just can't stand it anymore, What do you all hide from me Who is that boy you talked to yesterday night I'm sure not to know him I surely do not you seemed to have fun yeah, to have a good time so Who is that boy you talked to yesterday night Who is that boy

She's putting you on She's putting you on She's putting you on She's putting you on It's true I hate her with a passion she is notoriously cruel that girl will stop at nothing you are miscast in the part Better go away Better go away Better go away Better go away You'd better avoid her like the plague or you'll fall miserably remove all traces of her presence yeah, you will get it She's putting you on Better go away

Written, composed, performed, recorded & produced by Boris "Lauter" Kohlmayer.



dMute :
A la fois envoûtant et enjoué, tutoyant les grands espaces et les paysages urbains, ce second album de Lauter réussit le grand écart entre le folk généreux d'Herman Düne et celui, plus ombrageux, de Woven Hand. Souhaitons à Lauter la même destinée qu'à ces derniers.

Foutraque :
Avec Cursed, Lauter signe donc un second album fort prometteur qui, à coup sûr, ne laissera pas indifférent tous les mélomanes épris de grands espaces et de liberté musicale radieuse.

indiepoprock :
Picking agile et mélancolie en bandoulière : Lauter débarque comme un troubadour un peu fatigué mais encore prêt à faire virevolter ses doigts sur la six-cordes. "Cursed" est, c’est vrai, un très beau disque de guitare, mais c’est bien la moindre de ses qualités. Boris Kohlmayer a choisi de porter son folk vers des terrains moins bucoliques, vers des ambiances crépusculaires, alourdies par une anxiété inquiète typiquement urbaine. Twin Peaks n’est pas loin.

adecouvrirabsolument :
De facture principalement folk, Cursed est un voyage au milieu des phares de la musique allant des Doors à Palace, sans jamais perdre de vue les lumières de ceux-ci. Rarement un album fait dans l’intimité se permettra des moments de puissance d’un titre comme our seperate ways que nous reverrions de voir démarrer une de nos compilations.

about

Lauter image

Lauter Paris, France

Glouton et insatiable, LAUTER rêve son univers où grands espaces américains côtoient la froideur des métropoles et où une mélancolie européenne assumée fait écho au blues originel.
Entre folk psychédélique et post-rock, une voix apaisée et suave se confie mêlant souvenirs d’enfance, errances oniriques et amour égaré.
Lauter compose également pour le théâtre, les spectacles jeune public et l’image. ... more
