Garish


garish, formed in February 1997, is an Austrian alternative rock band. After having asserted themselves in the alternative scene inside and outside Austria's borders with their first two records amaurose pur. and wo die nacht erzaehlt vom tag, their third album Absender auf Achse gained favorable press and fan reaction. Despite German lyrics, it is said that their emotional style of music is their "real language".
The band was nominated for the Austrian music award "Amadeus" five times, but never won it.
The band's name is an English adjective meaning dazzling, stridently coloured or excessively ornamented, gaudy, ostentatious, tastelessly showy, tacky or in raucously poor taste.
Other music projects with garish' band members include "Polman Reisen", "Esteban's", "...Auf Pomali", "Bo Candy And His Broken Hearts" and "The Beautiful Kantine Band"
