For a long time it appeared that Dutch bands were doomed forever to wear out in the patriotic club circuit their days. The success of the Arnhem alternative guitar band Bettie Serveert (named after a textbook of tennis Bettie Stöve) gave the Dutch scene in the early nineties a welcome incentive. Derived from the ashes of the cult group The Doctors Bettie Serveert knew the Palomine debut album (1992)… immediately to the attention of the international press focused on themselves. Originally, the album was released by local label Brinkman but soon there was a contract with the largest US independent Matador. Most ear-catching features were the melancholic voice of singer Carol van Dijk and screeching guitars of the bespectacled Peter Visser. Somewhat surprised by the success the band took little time for the sequel, which Lamphrey (1995) somewhat disappointing. The successors Dust Bunnies (1997), Private Suit (2000) and log 22 (2003), the band is still settled permanently in the alternative rock establishment. Though it's been broken contract with Matador, the group still accounts for filled halls in America.more
