Matador Records | Couch Biography (636 words) |
 | Couch’s last record ‘Fantasy’ was their first in the US, reissued on Matador a year after its considerable impact in the UK and Germany. |
| Couch’s untitled 1995 vinyl-only debut and its successor ‘Etwas Benutzen’ (1997) threw Couch straight into the center of a musical awakening happening between Weilheim, Munich and Berlin. |
| Couch is not about replaying electronic music or replacing the song. |
| Couch - Profane (Matador) (616 words) |
| Couch is kind of like the caboose in that train of bands, the last one to make the trip over, standing out a bit from the rest due to its different purpose and form. |
| All these bands are sort of electronic, sort of pop, and sort of experimental, but Couch fits in much more cleanly with the type of bands already playing in the United States, post-rock rock bands. |
| They are still "the" rock band of the group, and they still create a groove that makes you feel like you're coasting through a vacuum--the groove has such forward momentum that you feel it could keep you coasting for all eternity with nothing to slow you down. |
