Munich-based band The Sound of Money reveals the release of their new LP, TWO: RHYME ON – an anagrammatic exorcism of the 70s. It will be out on May 23, 2025, through BB*Island. In conjunction to today’s announcement, the band unveils single “Dr Dr Themefart,” together with music video directed by Andreas Hykade.

Back in 2017 The Sound of Money, a band from the munich pop underground, took the titles of their 12 favourite 60’s albums as the DNA – and gave the letters a good shake! Out came a batch of 12 new titles, for new songs.

They wrote those songs, recorded them, and gathered them on the album MORE? WHY NOT! – an anagrammatical exorcism of the 60s. Now, 7 years later, they have made a follow up, just with their favourite 70s albums, and what to say, it’s topping the fun. A celebration of the album as a format, pop history and exchange.

The band’s list of favourite albums from that time ranges from David Bowie to Chic, from Nico to Slits, from Bob Marley to Kraftwerk.

And those Anagrams? Here’s an example “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars” became ‘Dr. Dr. Themefart, Frustrating Himself, Posed as Gay Old Nazi SS’.

And the music, how does this sound? Just like the letters of the titles, the music and lyrics have been shaken up into a dazzling, grotesque kaleidoscope of classic 70s pop styles: Agricultural P-Funk, Casino Gospel Disco, Anti-Pogo Postpunk, Home Computer Dub Jazz, or the entire Bowie in three and a half minutes backwards…

“Dr Dr Themefart” is the first single taken from TWO: RHYME ON – an anagrammatic exorcism of the 70s. The album will be released May 23 via BB*Island.
