The band “Wir sind Helden” is a German quartet purveying inoffensive pop rock, and recommended to us by one of our continental cronies. For their 2005 album cover, Von hier an blind, the band commissioned a group portrait in the ligne-claire style. The design is an obvious homage to Hergé’s Tintin.
“Wir sind Helden” are little-known in the English-speaking world, though they have played three sold-out concerts in London, and are available from the iTunes Music Store.
Cusack recommending rock musicians? The heavens fall.
Nothing in this post constitutes a specific recommendation!
