Bands in bookshops

Last night I went to East of Eden bookshop on Schreinerstrasse. There, I saw a band called 'before you die...' (Yes, if you're wondering, bands playing in bookshops is a common enough occurence in Berlin)
before you die... might be my new favourite band. They're everything I want in a band. Their music is some some of swamp blues gypsy megaphone fuelled folk. They look like they've just walked out of a Mark Twain novel. A banjo is involved. It's fucking fantastic. They're a sort of a Swedish 'Dead Brothers' but quite possibly better.
You can hear them here.
Do it. You won't be sorry.
