The Killers Jules and Vincent get the instruction to take revenge at my, Marsellus Wallace's, business partners. After they have shot the two gangsters Roger and Brett, another man enters the room, shoots with his whole loaded silver Magnum like in frenzy at the two men in black suits, and – misses!
Jules calls it a miracle, a divine intervention, and decides to quit with his job. Informant Marvin, who is taken away by the two Killers in their car, survives at first, but a bump in the road brings bad luck. Jules fires one shot, not on purpose, in the heat of the moment, and Marvin is killed by head-shot. To clear the difficult situation and to make the dead body and the bloody traces disappear, Jules and Vincent drive to a friend, Jimmie, who might be able to help. But Jimmies wife, Bonnie, will arrive soon, of course she should not notice anything. An expert is needed for the solution, so the specialist „The Wolf“ is called.
So far as Quentin Tarantinos version of a specific situation in „Pulp Fiction“ is concerned. The first thought, hearing the band's name, is explained. How can we get a connection between a film and a band, who has somehow borrowed their name from it?

We leave out the consideration about who might be Jimmie, The Wolf, Bonnie, Jules and Vincent or Marvin within the band, but it is for sure, that „The Bonny Situation“ from Duisburg do not have to shoot someone's head to get his attention for their music.
This happens all alone. Not by a bump in the street, but simply by sound waves, that will hurt nobody.
Ten years after the cinematic release of Pulp Fiction, „The Bonny Situation“ elates the masses in a comparable way. The reason is a mix of styles, that lets the band, says the press, become the direct follower of „Faith No More“. A kind of Faith No More 2.0 somehow. With this „The Bonny Situation“ is the far most exciting piece in Germany's music scene.
That the band is open towards experimenting, could be recognized on their debut release in 2005, „Still Another Day To Come“ (Album of the Month in Metal Hammer). The EPs that followed, „Le Fink“ and „Two Lazy Apes“, tighten the impression and, on the other hand, mark their advancement. The continuous working concerning song-writing, melodies, technique and theirselves will be profitable, I promise. The changes and enhancements within the band's sound are clearly noticeable and display great will and courage to self-realization also including the knowledge of what melodies stay in your ears. One of their advantages is, that here a band averts hits on sound storage mediums, in which every musician exactly knows, what he should play or better leave out.
The band calls their music „Progressive-Pop“. Hu? Again a new style of music? No! It is only a logic symbiosis, catchy tunes shimmer through progressive rock elements, and the pop song compositions are inventive enough, to offer many layers to the listener. The focus lies on Benjamin Peter's vocals, he carries the band to dimensions, that are often known only from big international artists (or even missed there).
Meanwhile „The Bonny Situation“ work on their official debut album „Music For A & Rs“, that will be released in 2008. We can be excited, how the „Bonnies“ will surprise us. Of course we can speak of divine intervention, this band must be sent to earth to achieve a mission. Hopefully no one
will quit with one's job after the mission is completed. That would indeed be a shame and could be, a special level, close to the tragic of a head-shot...
It is for sure, that this band does not need a „The Wolf“, who depollutes them. In fact „The Bonny Situation“ will take care, that other bands will be depolluted, so they come the nearest to the person of „The Wolf“ themselves.
Thank you for your time and attention.
