About mxrcxl
Who the fuck is Mxrcxl and why should we care? Mxrcxl (pronounced Marcel) is an Alternative Metal act from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, and is solely the creative vision of writer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist Marcel Janssen. Though it is not considered a band or traditional solo project per se, Mxrcxl can be considered a solo act. After releasing a 2 track demo named `Dump’ in 2012, on which Marcel played all the instruments, he searched and found musicians to perform live with. Soon thereafter Mxrcxl released the 4 track E.P. ‘A Laughing Matter`. It was recorded with band, and therefore sounded more organic. It received excellent reviews from press and peers after its release in 2013. An intense year of performing, including highlights such as the Baroeg Open Air Festival and several support slots, followed. With a new drummer and guitarist, Mxrcxl entered the studio in October 2014 and recorded his debut album `In Alarm’ Mxrcxl about `In Alarm’: `In Alarm’ for me is a very personal album, about a chaotic state of mind. Panic, if you will. It’s dark, loud, lyrical, alternative metal, with strong melodies and hints towards pop. Influenced by bands such as Dinosaur Jr., Jane’s Addiction, Faith No More and tons of more. The Musicians: Jasper de Groot – Keys, Backing Vocals & Percussion Tijmen Riede – Electric & Accoustic Guitars Mxrcxl – Lead Vocals, Bass, Guitars & Keys Renate Bus (Babes In The Hole) Guest Vocals on the track `In Alarm’ Otto Kokke (Mannheim/Dead Neanderthals) Baritone Sax on `Happy Shooting’ All Music And Lyrics by Mxrcxl except `You Got It’ by Jeffrey Lynne, Roy Orbinson and Thomas Earl Petty Recorded at Mailmen Studios, Utrecht, The Netherlands in October/November 2014 Produced and mixed by Mxrcxl and Jasper de Groot at Puree Productions, Rotterdam, The Netherlands Mastered by Nick Watson at Fluid Mastering, London, UK Artwork by Hats & Tales, Rotterdam, The Netherlands Original Portrait by Salih Kilic Alt.Metal from Rotterdam, The Netherlands
