About rockenspiel!
rockenspiel! formed on new years eve, 2007, in an abandoned apartment in downtown peterborough, ontario. they have since grown smaller and louder.
What The Jackals of the Media Say:
“Whether it’s Mathias Kom on his own or backed by 13 stellar musicians animating his quirky, sardonic, parlour pop, Peterborough’s The Burning Hell put on an incredible live show. A harbinger of wonderful performances to come, Happy Birthday is generally inward and comically morbid. It’s more “classy circus” than “cheap funeral” though, with deceptively jaunty arrangements and skewed perspectives on life and love. The Burning Hell’s people’s folk music is familiar but there’s something lively and unique coursing through Kom’s songs.”
