NPCs (the non-player-characters)

Gerold Rieder (bass, voc)

Stefan Bruneder (drums, voc)

The NPCs love to play, despite their name, but only according to their own rules. Founded in 2024 in Linz, Austria they set out to conquer the world, one venue at a time. Their music is a unique blend of powerpop, hard rock and alternative which they call "organic beat". "Organic", because this is home grown music, four voices, bass, guitar, drums and no additives. "Beat" harkens back to the days when rock music was raw, fresh, exciting and not a formula. The NPCs let songs take center stage, not the egos of posers and soloists. The world may not be saved, but fun is to be had. Their first Double LP has been recently released with the apt title "This Is Not A Game". Organic beat is here to stay.
