Engo

Others about ENGO: 3voor12 (The Netherlands):
"'Cause of their mixture of several cool genres and music, you can't put ENGO in one category. They are musically really good and have a mindblowing stage presence. The band's enthusiasm is contagious. The melodic songs and fanatic moves are a succesful combination." Autona Magazine (Germany):
"Indie-Rock, somewhere between Nirvana, No Doubt in their early days, the legendary Doors and Wir Sind Helden. Yet ENGO, adding Jazz and 70s Funk influences, still manages to maintain its own style!"
