German Bands

Hi FAkku!

im from Austria so i want to know what you thhink about german bands/music and if you like it?
here is a song from a German Band called Cultus Ferox its called "Wolfsballade"

Its a very good song i think. Some Other bands you may like are
Schandmaul


In Extremo


Subway to Sally


these are some Bands i like adn i sure that some of you guys will like it too so give it a look and enjoy it:)

Goth kid trash. Utterly unlistenable for anyone above the age of 15.
Cultus ferox is hilariously devoid of skill. I've seen them live at some street fair in Yaitsk and they were fun, but their albums are fucking shit. They just can't handle electronic equipment.

1.) Its not "goth kid trash" its called Medieval Rock
2.) You cant seen Cultus Ferox live in Yaitsk they never played there.
3.) I asked if somebody likes it and not if somebody hates it.
4.)What music do you listen, Mainstream-Pop, Hip-Hop?
5.) Im not a "goth kid" get this in your little brain

1.) Same thing, different name.
2.) Actually, they did. In two-oh-oh-three. They were dressed up as medieval blokes, playing on a makeshift stage in a "medieval market" fair. They also didn't bring any electronic equipment, which is why they were fun then, as opposed to in the studio.
3.) This is a thread on a message board, not godless Communism. I'm going to voice my opinion all day, unashamedly. Don't like dissent? Go post on the Chinese Communist Party board.
4.) Anything from Martial Industrial to renaissance Galliardes, so long as it is of supreme quality. Whoops! Goth boogey man preconceptions don't apply! Hot damn!
5.) Bloo hoo hoo.

i'm a great fan of subway to sally & schandmaul as well

cultus ferox and in extremo are fine, but compared to the other two find their way into my playlist rather rarely



something about your face

name me your favourite genres so i can associate it with some sorry ass teen stereotype too

Be my guest. I don't get in a huff when someone has an opinion, and heaven forbid, one that differs from mine. Bonus points if you're funny.
[size=10](Literally anything that isn't nigger rap, yodelling or chart sludge- so long as it's high quality)[/h]

Yo dude, I think we PM'd some time ago.

Well, I'm not into the whole medieval rock thing...

When I listen to any German bands at all, it boils down to some Krautrock from the 70s... Amon Düül II, German Oak, Et Cetera, Dzyan...

I think Germany actually has somewhat decent Pop, like Wir waren Helden or Silbermond, some songs are rather weak, but some actually have decent musicianship.

Never been a big fan of Die Ärzte, but Rammstein is pretty cool. Not too big on their recent stuff, "Mutter" was awesome though.

One band I can't stand at all are Böhse Onkelz... or rather, the fans lol. Yeah I know, a lot of people say they still have that Nazi image, but it's the low quality of the music (if I may make a statement on that) never made me shake my tailfeather.

Or, say, Popol Vuh.
Germany has plenty of decent bands (some of the best, in fact), so long as they don't sing in German.

Hmm, I only gave their record "Affenstunde" a listen and I wasn't too impressed...

I don't mind German that much, I mean Amon Düül literally incorporated poetry into their music (seems so, to me at least)

Most Krautrock bands don't even have lyrics to begin with, at least about 90+% of those I gave a listen.

Edit: But then again I'm German, so of course I wouldn't mind German lyrics.
Bands like Sportfreunde Stiller may not be musically complex, but their lyrics are witty on a level that makes me think that the singer majored in German actually.
Same goes for Wir waren Helden, I heard the singer actually did. Good lyrics...

Today i have some other bands for you thezre all in the Genre Industrial Metal or "Neue Deutsche Härte".


this is a parodic song about the Qualities of the Germans (Accuary, Strictness and Diligence)








Listen to it, like it, dislike it >.>@ECONOMY and post songs from german bands that you like too.

covering as many genres as possible in one post:

Popol Vuh. Krautrock. much love.


Bohren & der Club of Gore. Possibly the best contemporary Jazz outfit. Germans. They call what they do "zombie jazz". I call it unbridled ingenuity.


herbst9. darkambient. top notch. right up there with lustmord and shinjuku thief. quality through the stratosphere.


wappenbund. martial industrial. if you ignore the dubious lyrics, it turns out to be the best martial industrial outfit evar. beats the shit out of Von Thronstahl and company.


console. electronica. of NOTWIST fame. I shouldn't have to say anything more.


arovane. IDM. quality through the roof yadda dadda, the germans are the uncontested masters of idm, the end.


christian kleine. who knows what genre that is but anything he's ever done is breathtaking.


17 hippies. at least they're not singing in German! love these guys.


alva noto. godfather of minimalism. country of origin: GERMANY.


this is for you gothbois ; )
sopor aeternus. german! and goth! and actually fun! and quite a lot. just like it is supposed to be.

Bohren & der Club of Gore are nothing short of AWESOME.

I know right.

also I forgot to post fucking KLANGSTABIL.
officially the second-funniest guys to see in concert after aavikko. dirt-cheap, but damn, so much fun.

One of my favorite drum & bass producers is German.
