The second album by the Berlin streetcore band Toxpack, originally released in 2003 on DSS Records, has now been reissued at the end of last year on the dubious label Krawallbrüder Records. Instead of the original 10 tracks, the new record features an additional bonus song called "Vergeltung". Out of the 11 songs, one is an instrumental ("Erstroop Up Ketch") and one is a cover version of Discipline ("Everywere we go"), which is the only track that feels a bit out of place on the album. The band should stick to their own songs, especially with German lyrics. The album is heavily characterized by the brutal vocals of Schulle and the awesome guitar riffs. Lyrically, Toxpack navigates between love, hate, violence, and of course, football. As if that weren't enough, the band has also invited The Business singer Micke Fitz as a guest vocalist, who contributes to the track "Halbfinale". The CD also includes a six-page booklet with the lyrics of the songs.
My favorites from the album are "Klaustrophobie" and "Racheengel".
