The Haters are a Founded in 1979, American Industrial band. It consists of opportunity musicians around G.X. Jupitter -Larsen.

History

The band is made out of the only permanent member of the band, GX Jupitter -Larsen, only short recruited participants from him, a rehearsal room does not have the tape. First came The Haters 1979 in New York during an appearance in appearance, where Larsen with an old video camera smashed a pile of videotapes. First singles were released in 1980 and 1981, the debut album In the Shade of Fire, however, only in 1986.

More gigs followed, always in a black " executioner costume ", both in the U.S. and in Europe. By mid-2011 The Haters have completed a total of 370 performances. These always have a more performance art -like attitude. So tore Jupitter -Larsen in Pescara 15 minutes Paper ( Teeaarrr ), appeared to gigs is announced legally not possible (unlike the audience that watched the non-appearance ), slashed in Colorado Springs a mattress counted in Paris dustbin ( Ictanea All Nyrris ) or dug in Frankfurt and Birmingham holes in public parks ( Building Empty holes ).

In the following years, these motifs repeated over and over again, sometimes in combinations with each other, some in -developed form. With appearances in the 1990s, the frequently used motif provided with contact microphones, objects which, on a drill - mounted rotated against sandpaper (The Grinding Gig, Changing the Tire, The Thinking Did Ross ) was born. But working with the so-called " Clici -Clic ", provided with a contact microphone Locher, was a frequent motive.

Concept

The Haters play " busted music ", without using instruments. Sounds or noises are produced, are destroyed in the articles. The band is not so much a musical approach combined as an artistic, Jupitter -Larsen said this explicitly: " music per se, I was never particularly interested ." He understands noise, noise and noise occupied as positive.
