The Bilders

The Bilders are, an international group of musicians whose only constant member of the New Zealand Bill Direen is.

History

In the 90 years become known as pioneers of " lo-fi " movement, the roots of Direen 's music reach far back in the mid seventies. At a safe distance from the hotbeds of musical upheaval he had in 1977 developed his own vision of the rock- musical modernism in the Christchurch, New Zealand. Influenced by situationist theories, the proto-punk of the Stooges and Modern Lovers and the limitless possibilities of the newly emerging post-punk movement of the early Bilders played a stunning blend of psychedelic pop and avant-garde underground rock. Over the years and decades, the sound has been refined, more styles were integrated and a considerable number of recordings appeared in various constellations.

Everything was and is possible by various publications on the Flying Nun Records label hand-painted productions up to the current reissues of rare and unpublished works on labels such as unbalance and Siltbreeze Records. Despite the seemingly relentless experimentation Direen 's unique talent as a songwriter and performer to this day but is the constant that makes this music so exciting and unique.

A German - Austrian mini-tour in April 2013 provides an opportunity to Bilders with brand new material and classics from 35 years as a band to experience live.
