Favorite German Bands #10 - Pink Turns Blue

Tweet

But of course. Having just finished up my Favorite Canadian Acts series, why not visit another country with some great bands, Germany. As always, we'll start with #10, in this case, Cologne's Pink Turns Blue. Fronted by Mic Jogwer, Pink Turns Blue formed in 1985 in Berlin. They aren't officially a goth band, yet goth's are the only people I know that listen to them. During my second Army stint in Germany, I figured their stuff would be easy to find. After searches turned up nothing, I had to special order a copy of their 1990 album Eremite. The record store girl was skeptical that there was actually a band called Pink Turns Blue. Because they are a German band, I got my CD three days later (they aren't the only band in this series that I had to special order.) And that's my Pink Turns Blue story, other than it's one of the all-time great band names. Enjoy!
