about

In 2010 Kam:as went crazy, and as you know, they called it a day playing live together again. But not only closest friends knew that there were new songs, stuff to be recorded in a studio - not realy to be played live. So they met regulary to make some demos for recording later again with Tobi Siebert. But as always, that stuff was never finished.

Untill now - Have fun!

The idea of "Smashpimp" was to make a neverending digital album featuring all our sideprojects (like Itaca, Vanmaere, White Vests and Subsong etc.). We planned to create an own chartboard for all that stuff on our website. It took us a while to understand but that´s it.

November 11th, 2020 will be 10-year-anniversary of:
// Kam:as call it a day

released April 14, 2020
