Fokofpolisiekar rocking New Zealand
For the first time since 2010 Fokofpolisiekar will leave the country as an entity to tour to another country. They are taking their revered brand of rock ‘n roll to the Kings Arms Tavern in Auckland on the 28th of May.
A thing of beauty – Monoloog in Stereo vinyl
On 23 May 2005, JIP Volksblad announced Fokofpolisiekar’s plans to hit the studio to record the Monoloog in Stereo acoustic EP.
The hard rock band took a chance and recorded an EP way different from their previous two releases: As Jy Met Vuur Speel Sal Jy Brand and Lugsteuring. The mostly acoustic driven sound proved to be a hit and showcased the bands diversity from their previous punk rock sound.
Ten years later Fokofpolisiekar will be commemorating a decade of the Monoloog in Stereo by releasing a limited edition vinyl reproduction of the classic EP in July 2015. The vinyl will be available at shows and from Fokofpolisiekar’s website.
