No news is good news they say. What about old
news then... "I can honestly tell you that this is some of the best work I've heard from a relatively unknown band
since The Penniless People of Bulgaria released Velocity." It sure is nice to set some standards!.

Still happy happenings in Germany.
Pekka was spokesman for Penniless in a Rolling Stone feature in September. Black
Crows has been flying high on a playlist at MDR Sputnik for 8 weeks now. And US magazine Popmatters has pointed out that Penniless really matters
over there too.

Wenn eine Sängerin nur mit Gardinen
bekleidet in einem Video völlig wild und gleichzeitig erotisch vor sich hin sirent, dann ist das
entweder Courtney Love oder QUEEN ADREENA. "Pretty Like Drugs" bekommt von uns
den Newcomerpreis und ist zweites Video neben den fantastischen Penniless aus Finnland.
Letztere sind für uns die Reinkarnation von Nirvana mit kalifornischer Sonne. Eine
Offenbarung sind MUSTASCH im Interview, die neue Schweinerockhoffnung aus
Skandinavien. Von dieser Band werdet ihr noch viel hören! Nachzuprüfen im Livemitschnitt
der Band!...

Penniless has a design for life
- just read it in this Manchester magazine! And if you are fast enough you can get a
great tip here (sounds
good)!
Added 24.7.2002 by Gunnar
Lately Penniless have been
giving interviews to German music mags and to bigger and smaller daily papers. Rolling Stone did
put Imbecile on the July sampler, and another German magazine, Visions, followed up by
choosing Black Crows for it's sampler. This first Anola track
has also attracted some Swiss radio stations. On Saturday Penniless
appeared on the Swedish festival Trästock, smashing well, and a small note in
the band's guest book doesn't contradict this official statement.
Added 22.7.2002 by Gunnar
Anola is out in
Germany and neighbouring countries and kicking well. The German Rolling Stone magazine has featured "London
hit" Imbecile on a sampler together with songs performed by names
like The Flaming Lips, Doves, Joseph Arthur, Wilt, Ikara Colt, Guided By
Voices etc. Rolling Stone and Bravo are some of the bigger reviewers, and
Rolling Stone will also speak with Pekka Penniless in its August number.
TV channel Onyx has decided to show Imbecile the video.
