2011 was the nuclear disaster in Fukushima, likely inspired by these terrible events, the band STRAHLENTOD from Mühldorf finally settled on their band name last year after several considerations about what to call themselves. By the way, guys, your first planned band name CARTON DE BLAMAGE had its charm too, just wanted to mention that in passing hehe ;-) In the meantime, STRAHLENTOD has already played several pogo-friendly concerts, and I was present at most of them. My impression is that the guys are increasing their tempo from concert to concert, and what has come out of it is truly pogo-friendly, hardcore-influenced German punk. Now everyone else can also convince themselves of this with the demo tape that the guys recorded in spring 2012. There are 5 songs from the studio on the record, including 2 bonus tracks as live recordings. The opener "Eure Szene" deals with the strange characters that hang around in the scene, whether it's the punk who defines himself by his clothes or right-wing assholes who go drinking with fascists. Good lyrics! "Deutsches TV" critiques, as one can already guess, our everyday, dumbing-down TV program. Nothing new, but thematically unfortunately always relevant! Then comes "Zahnpflege", of course my favorite song on the record for me as an old Pfeffi drinker! Chorus: I’ll never brush my teeth again//I discovered something//I’ll take peppermint liqueur//because it tastes better!//I’ll never brush my teeth again//I thought of that//I’ll just take Pfeffi//because it’s fun! Next up is "Holzköpfe", a nicely cheeky song against the right-wing scum! "Zirkus" starts off with a punchy drum intro, coming in aggressively. Lyrically, it’s a good animal rights song that addresses the confinement of animals for the circus. Finally, there are live versions of "Deutscher Proll" and "Stahlentod", the band anthem. For a live recording, it turned out quite well, can’t complain! All in all: Keep it up!
