The Vyllies


The Vyllies are an all female Swiss based minimal wave/synth/gothic group, similar in respects to mid-era Clan of Xymox. Off the top of my head The Vyllies, along with Grauzone and The Young Gods, are among Switzerland's best musical talents. Get their 1985 LP Lilith here.



Members included~
Manu Moan: Vocals, Percussion.
Ursula: Key boards, rhythm box.
Ilona Prism: Vocals, bass.



Track List:
1. Whispers In The Shadow (4:45)
2. Seventh Heaven (5:03)
3. Bad Trip (3:15)
4. The Food Prayer (4:18)
5. La Nuit Des Vyllies (4:11)
6. Give Me A Name (4:21)
7. Beautiful Diseases (2:12)
8. The Black Raven (5:07)
9. Desire (Repetition Desperation) (2:57)
10. La Nuit Des Vyllies (Instrumental) (3:04)

Ah, damn, I should rather write in English then German, sorry ;) Your nickname seduced me to writing in German... Anyway, just wanted to say thanks a bunch for uploading this Vyllies-LP!! Really fantastic music!! I'm from Switzerland but never heard of this band so far. So... thanks!! Cheers, Ivana

Thanks Ivana,

I do understand more German than I credit myself for, and follow most of what you say. But I sure can butcher the language!

Glad you like this. At some point I will post some more by the band.

My name plays a little bit on the idea that as a DJ I "spin" records, so it is a bit of a pun as well. Fritz the spinner (of music). Yeah--cheesy, I know.

Hey Fritz,

no, that's not cheesy at all - actually rather cool! And: Thank God you chose the nickname Fritz Die Spinne and not Fritz der Spinner as "Spinner" in German means crackpot ;)

Anyway, thanks again for the fantastic music - enjoying it a lot! I'd love to send you some music too, but - after reading your CD-list, WOW! - I'm afraid that you might already have everything... Got the new Andi Sex Gang-album (June 2007) yet? It's called "Inventing New Destruction" and it's pretty damned good... (I also did an interview with him recently - nice guy!) Let me know.

Best
Ivana

Thanks for The Vyllies - great stuff which reminds me of Siouxsie or X-Mal Deutschland.

Bye from Germany,
